Hi Chris,
I think this is a valid use case and one I’ve thought about as well. Using the URI’s for listed licenses in RDF format would still be a valid SPDX document and much more compact. The changes would involve changes to the tools-java <https://github.com/spdx/tools-java> and spdx-rdf-store <https://github.com/spdx/spdx-java-rdf-store> projects. Feel free to add an issue to the tools-java project. If you have any ideas on what the command line option should be, feel free to propose in the issue.

When converting a small example file (example1.spdx etc.) the SpdxConverter class includes the full text of the license. This makes the RDF file verbose when inserting it into a RDF4J repository where I store relational data. I can exclude the text by parsing the RDF file but then I have to build my own logic by providing SPDX-License-Identifier or URI for the license. Is there another way to convert tag files by including SPDX-License-Identifier or URI (using the https://spdx.org/licenses/ or https://github.com/spdx/license-list-data) and generating a full license text file when needed. Or could this be an enhancement for future versions if the use-case is valid? Regards Chris. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
