How-to guides

Recipes for a particular job, assuming you already know what you want. Each page is a sequence of steps with just enough explanation to make the steps make sense; the reasoning behind them lives in Explanation, and the exhaustive parameter lists in Reference.

If you are new to Shifty, the tutorials are a better starting point.

• Validate a graph
• Run SHACL-AF inference
• Explain why a node passed or failed
• Extract bindings with a shape map
• Inspect how shapes were compiled
• Build and embed the WebAssembly module

Experimental

• Repair a graph

Repair a graph covers the symbolic repair layer, which computes the space of edits that would make a failing node conform. It works, but it is early: the API is expected to change, several constraint kinds are not yet invertible, and it edits data graphs only. Treat it as a preview rather than a stable interface.
