This module provides a command line tool jsonld to manipulate JSON-LD
data. It is written in JavaScript for node.js and uses the jsonld.js
and jsonld-request. Inputs can be from stdin, URLs, or files.
Go to the checked out git repository location:
cd jsonld-cli
Install your local version:
sudo npm install -g
If local install fails, try uninstalling any previous version:
sudo npm uninstall -g jsonld-cli
Or install latest release from the npm repository:
sudo npm install -g jsonld-cli --unsafe-perm
The jsonld command line tool can be used to:
- Import N-Quads to JSON-LD
- Transform JSON-LD to compact, expanded, normalized, or flattened form
- Transform RDFa to JSON-LD
- Normalize JSON-LD/RDFa Datasets to N-Quads
All inputs can be given as a local file name, a URL, or standard in (-).
To show tool options, a list of commands, or command options:
jsonld --help
jsonld COMMAND --help
To import from N-Quads:
jsonld import test/doc.txt
To frame a document using a JSON-LD frame:
jsonld frame -f test/frame.json test/doc.json
To compact a document using a JSON-LD context:
jsonld compact -c test/context.json test/doc.json
To normalize as N-Quads:
jsonld normalize -q test/doc.json
The N-Quads can then be processed via SHA-256, or similar algorithm, to get a deterministic hash of the contents of the Dataset.
