ShowVoc Documentation
Requirements and Installation
Requirements
ShowVoc comes with a standalone distribution which includes:
- the Semantic Turkey RDF services platform
- the ShowVoc web application
so at least, for a simple use of the system, nothing else is necessary, except for Java 17 (or a more recent version).
We recommend use of a separate, dedicated triple store for storing the data, while adopting local repositories only for small datasets and for quickly playing with the system.
Optionally, a separate http server can be used for hosting the web application.
More details for both options are provided in the system administrator manual.
Installation
Installation of the system is pretty immediate: unzip the standalone distribution and that's all!
More advanced installation options are described in the system administrator manual.
Running the system
Just:
- run the semanticturkey (with extension: .bat in Windows systems and .sh in UNIX ones) script from the /bin directory of the distribution and wait for the message "ST Started" to appear on the console
- point your browser to: http://localhost:1979/showvoc
Manuals
The user manual details the operations that users can perform on the application.
The system administrator manual deals with various installation options and all the advanced features related to system customization/reconfiguration that need to be performed under the hood
