Setup instructions

The tool is released to Maven central as a Maven artifact and Docker image. There is also a CLI available.

📦 Install from Maven Central

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.nanopub</groupId>
    <artifactId>nanopub</artifactId>
    <version>1.77</version>
</dependency>

implementation("org.nanopub:nanopub:1.77")

libraryDependencies += "org.nanopub" % "nanopub" % "1.77"

If you use a package manager that is included in the proposed ones, check out Nanopub on Maven Central to know how to import the package into your application.

Run as Docker Image

An image is released on Docker Hub

Run through the UNIX Command-Line (CLI)

To use this library on the command line, just download the np script. Make sure it is executable, and then you can invoke it with ./np … (or simply np … if you make sure it’s included in the PATH variable), for example:

./np check nanopubfile.trig

This automatically downloads the latest release as a jar file on the first run. You can also directly use the pre-built jar files:

java -jar nanopub-1.77-jar-with-dependencies.jar check nanopubfile.trig

Note: For Mac users, before running np ensure that the GNU version of curl is installed (not the default BSD versions), and are the ones being used when the curl command is invoked.
