Hi Gary,
sure I’ll post a change request/enhancement to the tools-java project. I
am using the Java API when doing conversion, which is more or less the
same as the command line interface.
Are there ways to generate a licence URI / SPDX-License-Identifier today
to get some idea for a function/input parameters?
Greetings Chris.

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.
Regards,
Gary

*Subject:* [spdx-tech] Option of using SPDX ID/URI when converting
files (tools-java) #spdx
I am converting tag files to RDF/XML by using the converter in
tools-java version 1.1.1. 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.
