JSON-goLD Documentations Travis CI results

This library is an implementation of the JSON-LD 1.1 specification in Go. It supports both URDNA2015 and URGNA2012 RDF dataset normalisation algorithms.

Conformance

This library aims to pass the official test suite and conform with the following:

Current JSON-LD 1.1 Conformance Status

This library provides comprehensive support of JSON-LD 1.1 specification, except in the areas mentioned below:

Expansion

Good coverage.

Compaction

Good coverage, except:

  • @included directive not supported

RDF Serialization/Deserialization

Good coverage, except:

  • JSON literals (@json) aren't supported
  • rdfDirection option is not yet supported (including i18n-datatype and compound-literal forms)

HTML based processing

Not supported.

Current JSON-LD 1.1 Framing Conformance Status

Not supported. The current implementation is still based on an earlier version of JSON-LD 1.1 Framing specification.

Official 1.1 Test Suite

As of April 4th, 2020:

Inspiration

This implementation was influenced by Ruby JSON-LD reader/writer, JSONLD-Java with some techniques borrowed from PyLD and gojsonld. Big thank you to the contributors of the aforementioned libraries for figuring out implementation details of the core algorithms.

History

The original library was written by Stan Nazarenko (@kazarena). See the full list of contributors here.
