oc_ocdm

Python library for creating, manipulating, and exporting RDF data compliant with the OpenCitations Data Model. It handles OCDM entities (bibliographic resources, agents, identifiers, etc.) without requiring direct knowledge of RDF or SPARQL.

Quick start

pip install oc_ocdm

from oc_ocdm.graph import GraphSet
from oc_ocdm import Storer

g_set = GraphSet("https://w3id.org/oc/meta/")
br = g_set.add_br("https://w3id.org/oc/meta/prov/pa/1")
br.has_title("OpenCitations Meta")
br.create_journal_article()

doi = g_set.add_id("https://w3id.org/oc/meta/prov/pa/1")
doi.create_doi("10.1162/qss_a_00292")
br.has_identifier(doi)

storer = Storer(g_set)
storer.store_graphs_in_file("output.jsonld")
