🕸️ Link

Add linked data context to research activity data (RAD) and create JSON-LD documents

The link command augments user-input RAD with linked data context and outputs JSON-LD documents. This process involves mapping the input data to established ontologies and vocabularies, thereby enhancing its interoperability and depth of meaning.

ACORN helps prepare RAD for programmatic expansion. The link command makes input RAD machine-readable.

Tip

Linked Data creates a connected network of standards-based, machine-readable data across Web sites.

Example Usage

# Link a specific research activity index
acorn link path/to/project/index.json

# Link all research activity data in a directory
acorn link path/to/project/

Tip

The link command is almost identical to the format command, complete with support for the --dry-run flag to preview changes without creating files.
