A two way converter for TM and DTDL files
The application is a .NET 6.0 solution composed of three main sub-projects:
-
WoTConverterCore - This project contains all the models for a Thing Model serialization/deserialization and validation. The project also contains all the JSONConverters used for a clean des/ser process.
-
WotConverterCLI - This is a simple entrypoint CLI application used to convert Thing Models or DTDLs in batches. the command simply takes a path to a file or a folder containing the target files to convert. The conversion automatically detects the type of file (DTLD or TM) by looking at the root "@type" property of the jsonlds it reads:
- @type="Interface" => DTDL
- @type="tm:thingModel" => TM
In addition to the file Path a series of flags can be provided to the CLI inteface to setup the conversion. See the table for reference.
-
WotConverterDTDL - This project contains a DTDL model with the converters needed for the two ways conversion to Thing Models.
| Flag | Possible Values | Description |
|---|---|---|
| -includeHrefs | true or false | This flag determines if each form that is created in Thing Models during conversion has an href property. In case of true, when the href Url is not available, it will be initialized with a mustache template. The name of the template variable is chosen starting from the Thing property name followed by "_HREF" |
| -tmOutPath | A valid string path | Set the Thing Models output path |
| -dtdlOutPath | A valid string path | Set the DTDLs output path |
- The thing Model structure is not completed yet. There are parts in every affordance that are missing.
- DTDL's Component, Relationship properties are not mapped yet between TMs and DTDLs
- GeoSpatial and Map types are not mapped yet between TMs and DTDLs
- The extends property is not mapped yet between TMs and DTDLs
