rdf java,使用Java将JSON文件转换为RDF格式

Here I want to convert the JSON file into RDF. Here is the JSON

{

"glossary": {

"title": "example glossary",

"GlossDiv": {

"title": "S",

"GlossList": {

"GlossEntry": {

"ID": "SGML",

"SortAs": "SGML",

"GlossTerm": "Standard Generalized Markup Language",

"Acronym": "SGML",

"Abbrev": "ISO 8879:1986",

"GlossDef": {

"para": "A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.",

"GlossSeeAlso": ["GML", "XML"]

},

"GlossSee": "markup"

}

}

}

}

}

I could not find a proper way to convert it into RDF.

There is no standard way to interpret JSON as RDF. There are several ways you can generate RDF from a JSON file though (in Java or otherwise). You could simply use a JSON parser implemented in Java, then extract the relevant parts and build an RDF graph using a Java library for RDF such as Apache Jena or RDF4J (formerly known as Sesame). However, there are other ways that could make the task much easier:

Transform the JSON file into a JSON-LD file by adding a @context to it. This works well for simple cases but is not sufficient to cover many relevant cases.

Use RML, a language for expressing mappings from various data formats (including JSON) to RDF. It has a reference implementation in Java. RML is an extension of R2RML, so it can also map relational data to RDF, and if you are familiar with R2RML, it is relatively easy to understand how RML works. There is also a graphical editor, but it seems it is not available for download.

Use SPARQL-Generate, a language for expressing mappings from non-RDF data sources (including JSON) to RDF. It has a reference implementation based on Jena. It extends SPARQL, so if you are familiar with SPARQL, it should be quite easy to use it. It can be tested online.
