Description

From dosu...@gmail.com on July 29, 2013 06:21:04

I'd like to use OWLtools to check whether an ontology is a DAG - failing if it is not. If this is already possible, please could it be documented. If not, please could this feature be added.

(OORT has one likely looking option: '--run-obo-basic-dag-check'. But I've been unable to find a way to get this to do anything. )

Research direction

Inspect OORT's --run-obo-basic-dag-check option and any existing documentation or invocation path; determine whether it currently performs the requested OBO DAG validation. Done means either documenting a working usage or adding the feature so a non-DAG ontology fails the check, with a reproducible command or test.
