glx add assertion

Create an assertion entity

Synopsis

Create an Assertion entity in the archive.

Exactly one of --subject-person, --subject-event, --subject-relationship, --subject-place is required. The payload is either --property + --value (for fact assertions) or --participant person-id:role (for participant assertions); the two payload forms are mutually exclusive.

--confidence is validated against the confidence_levels vocabulary. --source, --citation, and --media are each repeatable and must reference existing entities.

    --confidence medium \
