1.5.0 release

Changes between 1.5 and 1.4

Example Value Objects

• #135

Previously examples were limited to objects with two fields (value and description)

1.5 adds a object field that has range Any, allowing an arbitrary nested object to be used

See: https://w3id.org/linkml/Example

implements

• #148

Any LinkML element can now list a number of uris or curies to indicate conformance to an external schema without importing it

See: https://w3id.org/linkml/implements

Note: currently this is treated purely as documentation, but in future tools may use this to perform an additional level of validation on a project.

inlined_as_simple_dict

• #148

added inlined_as_simple_dict. This can be used to explicitly indicate that a collection is inlined as a SimpleDict.

For more information, see the section Collection Forms in part 6 of the specification

An example of inlining as a dict is commonly seen on all linkml schemas:

prefixes:
  chemrof: https://w3id.org/chemrof/
  COB: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/COB_
  BFO: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/BFO_

Currently tools do not use this element, so usage is purely documentational. In future validators may use this to determine whether to interpret a dict as a SimpleDict or not.

Additional metadata fields for schemas

The following can now be added to schema elements

• created_by
• created_on
• last_updated_on
• modified_by
• status

Documentation improvements

Thanks for @vincentvialard for many clarifications and fixes to the specification and documentation

What's Changed

• added ../ to local paths to fix broken links by @vincentvialard in #144
• add enums to description of schema definition by @vincentvialard in #145
• fixing normalization errors by @cmungall in #147

• Additions for 1.5 by @cmungall in #148
• Adding a curie type by @cmungall in #149
• Docs for type designators by @cmungall in #151
