Support auto-import of attributes from more standard vocabularies and ontologies #75

@SamRepository

Description:
It would be very useful if the generator could automatically pull and add attributes (metadata) from well-known vocabularies and
specialized ontologies.

Examples of well-known vocabularies include:

  • FOAF (Friend of a Friend) → for persons and organizational agents
  • GeoNames / GeO → for geographic and spacial entities
  • SKOS → for taxonomies and organizations
    PROV-O → for provenance metadata

Examples of specialized ontologies include:

  • PO (Plant Ontology)
  • TO (Trait Ontology)
  • ChEBI (Chemical Entities of Biological Interest)
  • OBI (Ontology for Biomedical Investigations), etc.

Why this is valuable:

  • Increases interoperability with established linked data standards
  • Reduces redundancy by leveraging existing semantic structures
  • Makes generated data more machine-actionable and integrable across domains

Potential Approach:

  • Provide configuration options to enable/disable specific vocabularies
  • Allow users to map generator-specific attributes to external ontology terms
  • Auto-suggest commonly used properties (e.g., foaf:name, skos:prefLabel, prov:wasGeneratedBy)
