In fact I also use this to turn bnodes into UUID's, in particular, sha-256 of the normalized RDF. You can use the jsonld normalize() function in node for example. I think have ni:///sha-256;<hash> URI's which are normally dereferenced at (according to the named instance spec) /.well-known/ni/sha-256/<hash> <-- notice the decentralization here the origin is independent of the data! > > Cheers, > > Kjetil >
