This library provides OWL2 datastructures that allow you to build and work with ontologies.
The OWL2 model is based on functional style syntax. E.g. the function
```
ClassAssertion( :Person :Mary )
```
Is represented as a similar tuple struct
```rust
pub struct ClassAssertion(pub(crate) ClassConstructor, pub(crate) IndividualIRI);
```
## Usage
owlish provides two APIs:
1. A low level representation of OWL based on functional syntax
- This is exported in `owlish::owl::*`
2. A conceptional api that concatenates OWL data for relevant types.
- TBD
## Usage (Node.js)
To initialize the module in a Node.js environment, it is currently recommend to load the WASM module via the `fs` API and
pass it explicitly to the initialization function.
Example:
```js
import path from 'path';
import { readFile } from 'fs/promises';
import { fileURLToPath } from 'url';
// The next two lines are only required if running the Node script as an ESM module
const __filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url);
const __dirname = path.dirname(__filename);
// Load .wasm file from the package
const owlishWasm = await readFile(path.join(__dirname, "../node_modules/owlish/owlish_bg.wasm"));
// Initialize module, after executing this line, all functions from `owlish` can be used like normal.
await owlish(owlishWasm)
