• Execute SPARQL queries on local or remote files
• Query SPARQL endpoints
• Validate RDF graphs using SHACL
• Canonicalize RDF data

Requires Java 21 or higher.

Run manually with:

java -jar corese-command-standalone.jar

Example Usage

# Run a simple SPARQL query on an RDF file
corese query -q 'SELECT * WHERE {?s ?p ?o}' -i data.ttl

# Convert RDF from Turtle to RDF/XML
corese convert -i data.ttl -of rdfxml

# Validate RDF data with SHACL shapes
corese validate -i data.ttl -s shapes.ttl

# Canonicalize RDF using RDFC 1.0 with SHA-256
corese canonicalize -i data.ttl -of rdfc-1.0-sha256

# Query a SPARQL endpoint
corese query-endpoint -q 'SELECT * WHERE {?s ?p ?o}' -e "https://dbpedia.org/sparql"
