APIS
The Austrian Prosophographical Information System is a Django based prosopography framework. It allows to create web applications to manage both entities and relations between entities. It provides API access to the data in various formats and creates swagger defintions. A swagger-ui allows for comfortable access to the data.
Data can also be imported from remote resources described in RDF.
In addition to this configurable import of data via RDF, there is also an configurable serialization of data. The generic RestAPI of APIS provides data either in the internal JSON format, TEI or RDF (serialized with CIDOC CRM).
APIS comes with a built in system of autocompletes that allows researchers to import meta-data of entities with just a single click. Out of the box APIS supports Stanbol as a backend for the autocompletes, but the system is rather easy to adapt to any Restfull API. APIS also supports the parsing of RDFs describing entities into an entity. The parsing is configured in a settings file.

Installation
Create a new Django project:
django-admin startproject my_apis_instance
Add apis-core-rdf as a dependency to your project.
To use the APIS framework in your application, you will need to add dependencies to
INSTALLED_APPS.
See
sample_project/settings.py
for reference.
Additionally, you will need to configure the template packs used by
crispy_forms and django_tables2 by adding CRISPY_ALLOWED_TEMPLATE_PACKS,
CRISPY_TEMPLATE_PACK and DJANGO_TABLES2_TEMPLATE. Consult sample_project/settings.py for reference as well.
Finally, add the APIS urls to your applications URL Dispatcher
urlpatterns = [
path("", include("apis_core.urls", namespace="apis")),
# https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/auth/default/#module-django.contrib.auth.views
path("accounts/", include("django.contrib.auth.urls")),
# https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/contrib/admin/#hooking-adminsite-to-urlconf
path("admin/", admin.site.urls),
]
Now start using your Django project
./manage.py runserver
Now you should be ready to roll. Start creating your ontology.
