nanopub-testsuite-connector 1.0.0

Python connector for the Nanopublication Test Suite

Nanopublication Test Suite Connector — Python

A Python connector that downloads and exposes the Nanopublication Test Suite contents for programmatic use.

This package provides a lightweight, zero-dependency API to fetch the official Nanopub Test Suite from GitHub (as a .tar.gz archive), extract it locally, and index test cases so other code can easily consume valid/invalid test nanopublications, transform test cases, and signing keys.

Installation

pip install nanopub-testsuite-connector

Or add it to your project's test dependencies:

pyproject.toml

[dependency-groups]
test = [
    "nanopub-testsuite-connector>=1.0.0",
]

Quick examples

Load the latest suite and list all valid PLAIN entries

from nanopub_testsuite_connector import NanopubTestSuite, TestSuiteSubfolder

suite = NanopubTestSuite.get_latest()
for entry in suite.get_valid(TestSuiteSubfolder.PLAIN):
    print(entry.name, "->", entry.path)

Load the testsuite at a specific commit

suite = NanopubTestSuite.get_at_commit("a1b2c3d")
print("Loaded testsuite version:", suite.version)

Look up an entry by artifact code or nanopub URI

suite = NanopubTestSuite.get_latest()

entry = suite.get_by_artifact_code("RA1sViVmXf-W2aZW4Qk74KTaiD9gpLBPe2LhMsinHKKz8")
print("Entry for artifact code:", entry.name)

entry = suite.get_by_nanopub_uri("http://purl.org/np/RAPPdsJKoVVp7KZTjdS3D2MvxfkNa-G4JDrnLjeMQFwnY")
print("Entry for URI:", entry.name)

Access transform cases for a named signing key

for tc in suite.get_transform_cases("rsa-key1"):
    print(tc.plain.name, "->", tc.signed.name, "| expected code:", tc.out_code)

Read a signing key pair

kp = suite.get_signing_key("rsa-key1")
print("Private key path:", kp.private_key)
print("Public key path: ", kp.public_key)

Use entries in pytest

import pytest
from nanopub_testsuite_connector import NanopubTestSuite, TestSuiteSubfolder


@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def testsuite():
    return NanopubTestSuite.get_latest()


@pytest.mark.parametrize(
    "entry",
    NanopubTestSuite.get_latest().get_valid(TestSuiteSubfolder.PLAIN),
    ids=lambda e: e.name,
)
def test_valid_plain(entry):
    content = entry.read_text()
    assert "@prefix" in content

    SIGNED = "signed"
    TRUSTY = "trusty"

TransformTestCase

Attribute	Type	Description
key_name	str	Signing key used (e.g. rsa-key1).
plain	TestSuiteEntry	Input nanopub (from transform/plain).
signed	TestSuiteEntry	Expected output (from transform/signed/<key>).
out_code	str | None	Expected artifact code from *.out.code, or None.

SigningKeyPair

name	str	Key directory name (e.g. rsa-key1).
private_key	Path	Path to the private key file.
public_key	Path	Path to the public key file.

Notes & troubleshooting

• The connector downloads GitHub tarballs (archive/<ref>.tar.gz). An internet connection is required when fetching a new version or commit.
• Downloaded data is extracted into a temporary directory created with tempfile.mkdtemp. The directory persists for the lifetime of your process. Clean it up manually via suite.root.parent if needed.
• If extraction fails, ensure your environment allows outgoing HTTPS traffic.
