Glossarist-ruby 2.8 brings significant enhancements to the Ruby gem for managing terminology concepts.
V3 schema support
The V3 concept model introduces extended designation types, grouped concept files (all localizations in a single YAML), and improved cross-reference resolution. Glossarist-ruby 2.8 fully supports reading and writing both V2 and V3 formats.
OWL ontology alignment
The concept model now includes an OWL ontology that defines the class hierarchy, property definitions, and SHACL shapes for validation. This enables seamless integration with semantic web tooling and SPARQL endpoints.
SKOS taxonomy integration
14 SKOS concept schemes are now available as Turtle (TTL) files in the concept-model repository. Glossarist-ruby can export concepts as SKOS/RDF, enabling interoperability with thesaurus management systems.
