we would like to specify for our ontology, that each class must at least have a skos:definition
in English, but translations (also described as skos:definition
with a different language tag) are welcome. I would like to specify a SHACL-Shape to check if that condition is met.
A simple valid example of a class definition:
ex:ExampleClass a owl:Class ;
skos:definition "An example Class"@en, "Eine Beispielklasse"@de .
The only thing I found which seemed helpful in that area is sh:languageIn
. Unfortunately, as I understand it, it only checks if all language tags are part of a given set.
ex:Pattern1 a sh:NodeShape ;
sh:targetClass owl:Class ;
sh:property [
sh:path skos:definition ;
sh:datatype rdf:langString ;
sh:languageIn (
"en"
) ;
] .
Unfortunately, stackoverflows spam filter seems to hinder me from posting the ttl blocks with prefixes. Therefore, I provide that in a gist: https://gist.github.com/MattTJung/8739566f550c85d9ab3c862267a7675b
How can I alter this, to make sure there is at least one occurence of @en
, but still allow for other language tags?
The hint given by @HolgerKnublauch pushed me on the right path, thank you.
