org.incenp.obofoundry.sssom.uriexpr.UriExpressionRegistry

public class UriExpressionRegistry
extends Object

A basic registry of URI Expression schemas.

For now, the sole purpose of this registry is to associate a “schema” (the first half of a URI Expression, before the JSON-URL part) and a format with an expansion template. More features may be added in the future.

This is only used by the SSSOM/T-OWL (ROBOT) application, so the only format we need in the OWL Manchester Syntax format, but again, this may change in the future.
