Florian Kleedorfer commented on JENA-2320:
------------------------------------------
Hi, [~andy] I made some changes:
The listener interface is now cleaner:
{{{color:#cc7832}public interface {color}ValidationListener {}}
{{ {color:#cc7832}void
{color}{color:#ffc66d}onConstraintViolatedEvent{color}(ConstraintEvaluatedEvent
e){color:#cc7832};
{color}{color:#cc7832}
{color}{color:#cc7832} void
{color}{color:#ffc66d}onConstraintSatisfiedEvent{color}(ConstraintEvaluatedEvent
e){color:#cc7832};
{color}{color:#cc7832}
{color}{color:#cc7832} void
{color}{color:#ffc66d}onValidationLifecycleEvent{color}(ValidationLifecycleEvent
e){color:#cc7832};
{color}{color:#cc7832}
{color}}}}
There's a whole hierarchy of events to cover all the cases in
org.apache.jena.shacl.validation.event. It's more complex than I would have
liked, but it works for me.
> Callback or more detailed report from SHACL validation

> Key: JENA-2320
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-2320
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: SHACL
> Reporter: Florian Kleedorfer
> Priority: Minor
>
> Summary:
> Could we make the ValidationContext constructors protected and use instance
> methods instead of the current static factory methods (at least for
> {{create(ValidationContext)}} so that a subclassed ValidationContext can be
> provided for validation that can also be propagated into the sub-evaluations?
> Explanation:
> I'm working on code that quite intimately builds on jena's SHACL validation.
> Here's what I'm trying to do: There is a set of nodes V in the data graph G
> that I am trying to find substitutions for by other RDF nodes. A substitution
> is valid if no shape has a violation. Now for figuring out which
> substitutions might be valid, it is not enough to know that shape S is
> violated on focus node F - I need to know why exactly - i.e. which of my
> substitutions made the validation fail. I already have a system in place that
> notices which nodes in V (or their respective substitutes) are looked at
> during evaluation of S. Also, If the violation is of a simple property shape,
> I can follow the {{sh:ResultPath}} of the report from F to get to the node;
> however, if the shape uses an aggregate like {{sh:xOne}}, or a {{sh:node}}
> the report does not help me find the culprit, I just know it's one of the
> nodes that were looked at.
> I have two ideas how this could be fixed for me:
> *More detailed report*
> An optional, non-standard report could be generated that always allows me to
> figure out which of my substitutions for nodes in V (or lack thereof) caused
> the violation. Maybe it would be enough to pass the validationreport of
> sub-evaluations through to the main one.
> or
> *ValidationCallback*
> A callback that I can provide for an evaluation, either as a method param to
> {{VLib.validateShape()}}, as an optional member in the ValidationContext, or
> in a ThreadLocal. The latter may be a problem if evaluation is done in
> multiple threads, so maybe that's not such a great idea.
> The callback would need to be called whenever a reportEntry is added to the
> context - also in sub-evaluations that use a new context.
> One way with minimal impact on the codebase to achieve at least the second of
> these solutions would be to allow me to extend the {{ValidationContext}}
> (currently not possible because of the private constructors) and to allow me
> to return my subclassed {{ValidationContext}} in
> {{ValidationContext.create(ValidationContext)}} - and maybe also in the
> other, currently static, factory methods. If that was possible, I could
> easily intercept {{reportEntry}} methods, which (I hope) is enough.
> If that is an option, I'll provide a PR, so that I can make sure the
> suggested changes really do solve my problem.
