Mapping algebra provides operational semantics to the mapping process, opening the door to study of complexity and expressiveness of existing mapping languages. This project provides the CLI translator from RML to mapping algebra.
To compile the project on your own, you'll need to have Rust toolchain installed.
For Linux-based users:
- Rust
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
For the visualization of the generated mapping plans, you'll need python version >= 3.10 and the following packages:
- graphviz
- Download this repo
- Run cargo build at the root this repo
cd {repo dir} cargo build --release
- Run the CLI translator app from the compiled translator binary
For more information/options of CLI app:
cd ./target/release/ ./translator file <RML_DOCUMENT>
./translator -h
- Visualize the created mapping plan
dot -Tpng {generated dot file} > output.png
- Simple plain text format of the mapping plan for parsing
dot -Tplain {generated dot file} > output.txt
Currently, the translator will generate valid mapping plans for the official RML test cases with mapping plans for CSV data sources (all test cases ending in CSV).
The generated mapping plans for the test cases are inside the /resources/csv-testcases.
This software makes use of sophia_rs crate!
