Validationreport sourceShape is a blank node

[GerwinBosch]

When retrieving the sourceShape it returns a blank-node, it would be nice to get the IRI instead of the blank node label

import { runInContext } from "lodash";
import { Parser } from "n3";
const SHACLValidator = require("rdf-validate-shacl");

const dataTtl = `@prefix ex: <http://example.org/ns#> .

@prefix schema: <http://schema.org/> .
@prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> .

ex:Bob
    a schema:Person ;
    schema:givenName "Robert" ;
    schema:familyName "Junior" ;
    schema:birthDate "1971-07-07"^^xsd:date ;
    schema:deathDate "1968-09-10"^^xsd:date ;
    schema:address ex:BobsAddress .

const run = async () => {

  const validator = new SHACLValidator(shapes);

  const report = await validator.validate(data);

  for (const result of report.results) {
    console.log(result.sourceShape); // Returns a BlankNode
  }
};
run()

Just by looking at the snippet, isn't the blank node the id of a PropertyShape?

[GerwinBosch]

I'd expect it to have the schema:PersonShape term as the value instead of the blank node

[martinmaillard]

From my understanding of the SHACL spec, it would be wrong to point to the parent NodeShape instead of the PropertyShape that raised the invalid result. If you want a URI, the best way is to give a URI to your PropertyShape:

@prefix schema: <http://schema.org/> .
@prefix sh: <http://www.w3.org/ns/shacl#> .
@prefix xsd: <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#> .
@prefix ex: <http://example.org/> .

schema:PersonShape
    a sh:NodeShape ;
    sh:targetClass schema:Person ;
    sh:property ex:givenNameShape ;
.

ex:givenNameShape a sh:PropertyShape ;
    sh:path schema:givenName ;
    sh:datatype xsd:string ;
    sh:name "given name" ;
.
