Usage

sssom_curator [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options

-p, --path <path>: Either the path to a sssom-curator configuration file or a directory containing a file named sssom-curator.json. Defaults to current working directory

sssom_curator import semra [OPTIONS]

Options

-p, --prefixes <prefixes>: Filter to mappings whose subject and objects are both in the prefix list.Must pass at least two.

url

Import mappings from a URL.

Usage

sssom_curator import url [OPTIONS] URL
