Example

The following command will output types for all classes explicitly defined in the ontology, as well as an object containing the prefixes and IRIs used by the ontology.

rdf-tools typescript example.ttl > example.ts

How does it work?

Classes

In order to construct types for the classes in the ontology we need the following pieces of information for each type:

• owl:Class: What is the name of the class?
• rdfs:subClassOf: What are its super-classes?
• rdfs:domain, rdfs:range, owl:FunctionalProperty: Property names, types and pluralities.
