Validator Playground

Paste concept YAML on the left; categorized validation results appear on the right. Five preset examples cover common shapes including several intentionally broken ones. Rules mirror glossarist-js's check-* validators; for full SHACL + dataset coherence, use the SDK in your build pipeline.

Examples:
Active rules (7)
  • concept-shape — Required structural fields per ManagedConcept schema.
  • localizations-present — At least one language entry required (ISO 10241-1 §3).
  • definition-present — ISO 10241-1 mandates a definition per language unless a non-verbal representation is used.
  • designation-shape — Each term must have a designation, a valid type, and a normative_status.
  • related-types — Every related.type must be in the 52-type enumeration (ISO 12620 / SKOS / ISO 25964).
  • external-concept-shape — ExternalConcept (status: external) must NOT carry a definition or sources.
  • hyperedge-cardinality — partitive_relations / generic_relations arrays: each ≥2 members, valid MECE combos.

all rules pass

All 7 rules pass — this concept is structurally valid per the checks implemented here.

Note: these are the structural checks hand-rolled for this playground. For full SHACL validation, dataset-level coherence, and cross-reference resolution, use glossarist-js or glossarist-ruby in your build pipeline.

What gets checked

Seven hand-rolled rules covering the structural checks glossarist-js enforces at construction time. Each rule cites the relevant ISO standard when applicable.

  • Concept shape — required fields (termid, status)
  • Localizations present — at least one language entry (ISO 10241-1 §3)
  • Definition present per language — mandatory unless non-verbal representation is used (ISO 10241-1 §6.4)
  • Designation shape — each term has a valid type and normative_status (ISO 12620 §A.2.1)
  • Related-edge type validity — every related.type in the 52-type enumeration (ISO 12620 / SKOS / ISO 25964)
  • ExternalConcept shape — status: external must not carry definitions; should have provided_by edge (ISO 704 §5.5.4.2.2)
  • Hyperedge cardinality + MECE — each rake ≥ 2 members, valid combos, generic requires delimitingCharacteristic (ISO 704 §5.5.4)

What this playground does NOT check

Hand-rolled structural checks are a teaching tool. For production validation you need the SDK, which adds:

  • SHACL shape validation against the canonical glossarist.shacl.ttl
  • Cross-concept reference resolution (do all ref.source URNs exist?)
  • Dataset-level coherence (duplicate (comprehensive, criterion) pairs, etc.)
  • RDF emission correctness (TBX round-trip)
  • ConceptSource locality shape
  • Binary has_part redundancy against PartitiveHyperedge

Use glossarist-ruby in your dataset CI, or glossarist-jsin your build pipeline, to get the full validator suite.
