morph-kgc 2.2.0

Powerful [R2]RML engine to create RDF knowledge graphs from heterogeneous data sources.

Morph-KGC is an engine that constructs RDF and RDF-star knowledge graphs from heterogeneous data sources with the R2RML, RML and RML-star mapping languages. Morph-KGC is built on top of pandas and it leverages mapping partitions to significantly reduce execution times and memory consumption for large data sources.

Getting Started

PyPi is the fastest way to install Morph-KGC:

pip install morph-kgc

We recommend to use virtual environments to install Morph-KGC.

To run the engine via command line you just need to execute the following:

python3 -m morph_kgc config.ini

Check the documentation to can see how to generate the configuration INI file. Here you can also see an example INI file.

It is also possible to run Morph-KGC as a library with RDFLib and Oxigraph:

import morph_kgc

# generate the triples and load them to an RDFLib graph
g_rdflib = morph_kgc.materialize('/path/to/config.ini')
# work with the RDFLib graph
q_res = g_rdflib.query(' SELECT DISTINCT ?classes WHERE { ?s a ?classes } ')

# generate the triples and load them to Oxigraph
g_oxigraph = morph_kgc.materialize_oxigraph('/path/to/config.ini')
# work with Oxigraph
q_res = graph.query(' SELECT DISTINCT ?classes WHERE { ?s a ?classes } ')

# the methods above also accept the config as a string
config = """
            [DataSource1]
            mappings: /path/to/mapping/mapping_file.rml.ttl
            db_url: mysql+pymysql://user:password@localhost:3306/db_name
         """
g_rdflib = morph_kgc.materialize(config)
