Question: Is it possible to merge two pointers?

[danielbeeke]

Use case:

Imagine a SHACL property and then one pointer on the property itself so that you could get for example sh:path etc. And the other pointer inside the list of the sh:or so that you could get for example sh:path or any other nested triple. (if it was given in the or statement.)

[danielbeeke]

I tried something like:

pointers[0].clone({
    ptrs: pointers.flatMap(pointer => pointer.ptrs)
  }).trim()

Not totally sure if this is correct, but it seems to do the trick.

[bergos]

There should be a more convenient method to do that.

If you call .trim() at the end, you can also use the .terms property and the .node() method, but that requires that all ptrs are in the same dataset!

pointers[0].node(pointers.flatMap(p => p.terms))
