owl.exe does nothing

[VladimirAlexiev]

I got https://github.com/atextor/owl-cli/releases/download/snapshot/owl-x86_64-windows-snapshot.exe and it doesn't do anything:

$ owl -v
$ owl -h
$ owl diagram IEC61970-600-2_CGMES_3_0_0_RDFS_501Ed2CD_EQ.ttl
  # nothing written

The same with version 1.2.5.

https://github.com/atextor/owl-cli/releases/download/snapshot/owl-cli-snapshot.jar doesn't have this problem.

@atextor Sorry, wrong project! Can you move this to https://github.com/atextor/owl-cli, or I should recreate it there?

[atextor]

Hi @VladimirAlexiev, thanks for reporting!
I have moved the issue to owl-cli.
Can you please post the output using hte -vvv switch?

[VladimirAlexiev]

No output.

(The first time it's run it takes a couple of seconds, then it runs faster)

I am on linux, trying to use this project from source (as I want to do changes afterwards), and I don't know how.
I am used to Maven, not Gradle.

I tried ./gradlew run, and that .. seems to be it.. somehow, but don't know how to supply CLI commands; ./gradlew run -- -h seems not to be it.

I also tried to figure out if ./gradlew build might create a self-contained JAR, but that seems also not to be the case...

in short: how to use this?

[atextor]

The documentation contains sections both on downloading and running a pre-built binary as well as building from source. Please let me know if this needs improvement though! (apart from the Windows version apparently not doing what it's supposed to)

ahhh.. thank you!

I was looking in the README, and saw that link, and I though I clicked on it and was sent "back" to the girhub repo directly, but .. apparently no!
