turtlefmt 0.1.2

Auto-formatter for RDF Turtle

TurtleFmt

turtlefmt is an auto formatter for RDF Turtle under Apache 2 license.

Installation

It is currently distributed on:

• Crates.io: cargo install turtlefmt
• Pypi: pipx install turtlefmt

Build from source requires NodeJS 6.0+ to be available in your PATH.

Usage

To use it:

turtlefmt MY_TURTLE_FILE.ttl

It is also possible to check if formatting of a given file is valid according to the formatter using:

turtlefmt --check MY_TURTLE_FILE.ttl

If the formatting is not valid, a patch to properly format the file is written to the standard output.

It is also possible to check a complete directory (and its subdirectories):

turtlefmt MY_DIR

Format

turtlefmt is in development and its output format is not stable yet.

Example:

@prefix ex: <http://example.com/> . # Prefix
@prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> .

# Some facts

<s> a ex:Foo ;
    <p> "foo"@en , ( +01 +1.0 1.0e0 ) . # Foo

# An anonymous blank node
[ ex:p ex:o , ex:o2 ; ex:p2 ex:o3 ] ex:p3 true . # Bar

For now, it:

• Validates that the file is valid.
• Maintains consistent indentation and line jumps.
• Normalises string and IRI escapes to reduce their number as much as possible.
• Enforces the use of " instead of ' in literals.
• Uses literals short notation for booleans, integers, decimals and doubles when it keeps the lexical representation unchanged.
• Uses a for rdf:type where possible.
