🧰 tools4RDF

tools4RDF is a Python toolkit for working with RDF data, SPARQL queries, and semantic networks.

It allows one or more ontologies to be parsed and represented as Python classes, making it easier to navigate and explore their structure through features like autocompletion in interactive environments such as Jupyter notebooks.

The aim is to make querying knowledge graphs with SPARQL more accessible to users without deep expertise in semantic web technologies.

🚀 Features

Load and serialize RDF graphs (Turtle, RDF/XML, N-Triples, etc.)
Compose and run SPARQL queries programmatically
Auto-discover ontology terms via dot-access
Query graphs and return results as pandas DataFrames
Perform graph merging and basic path reasoning

📦 Installation

bash pip install tools4rdf

Or:

bash conda install -c conda-forge tools4rdf

📘 Example

python from tools4rdf import OntologyNetwork onto = OntologyNetwork('http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/') df = onto.query( 'https://dbpedia.org/sparql', onto.terms.foaf.Person, onto.terms.foaf.familyName, limit=10, )

More examples available in the docs.
