ontospy 1.6.0

A Python project for working with RDF/OWL ontologies

RDFLIb-based Python toolkit for inspecting ontologies on the Semantic Web.

Description

OntoSPy allows you to extract all the schema information from an RDFS/OWL or SKOS schema, inspect it and use it query a corresponding knowledge base.

The basic workflow is simple: load a graph instantiating the Graph class; you get back an object that lets you interrogate the RDF schema. That’s all!

The library can be used in standalone mode too.
