Example

Command to generate Princeton WordNet 3.1 in XML

./gwn -i wn31/dict -o wn31.xml -f WNDB -t WNLMF \
  -a wn-data/ili-map-wn31.ttl --id pwn31 --label "Princeton WordNet 3.1" \
  --version "3.1" --url "http://wordnet.princeton.edu/" \
  --license "http://wordnet.princeton.edu/wordnet/license/" \
  --email "***@princeton.edu"

Development

To compile the system we use SBT. The following command is used to regenerate the file for use with the gwn command

sbt assembly

The web interface is a separate project under the web/ folder. In order to build this you first need to run the publishLocal command in the root folder and then start sbt and run jetty:start

sbt publishLocal
cd web/
sbt
> jetty:start
> browse
