Resources

Overview

If you want to create a resource to export elsewhere, click on "Resources" and then "Create". Then you choose if you want to create an RDForms bundle, a Diagram, an RDF Schema or an undefined resource.

Drop down menu for Create resources

When you have created your resource file, you can then download it in the next step.

Create an RDForms bundle

To create an RDForms bundle, fill in the mandatory fields Title and Target languages. If you want, you can also write a Description.

You may also edit which Forms and fields that should be selected and included in the bundle. At the bottom you see all dependencies to other objects that the bundle has.

When you have created your bundle, you can click the title and then the "Download" button to download it as a JSON file.

Create SHACL

SHACL (Shapes Constraint Language) is a format used to define and validate rules for RDF data. This can be useful for data validation and interoperability in semantic web applications. When choosing SHACL, selected forms and fields will be exported in that format.

You can click the title and then the "Download" button to download it as SHACL.

Create a Diagram

You can create a diagram for your model as a PNG or SVG image file.

When you have created your diagram, you can click the title. You get a preview of your diagram and can click "Download" button to download it as an image file (PNG or SVG).

Create an RDF Schema

You can create an RDF Schema of your model, using either Turtle format or RDF/XML.

Create other resource

Option for creating unspecific resource files.

Export and import model

To export a model from an EntryScape instance and import it in another EntryScape instance, you need to start with creating both an RDF schema with all classes and properties and an RDForms bundle with the form templates. Then download them both.

Download button

Next, open your other EntryScape instance with Models and create an empty model where you can import the downloaded files.

Create new empty model

First, import the RDF Schema file (RDF/XML or Turtle).

Import RDFS Import RDF Schema

Second, import the RDForms bundle (JSON). The import order is important to help build the model correctly.
