Owlready2 0.44 has been released!

Owlready is a Python module for ontology-oriented programming. It can load OWL 2.0 ontologies and manipulate them transparently in Python.

This version includes an observation framework allowing to register a listener to any entity, in order to be notified when the entity relations are modified.

It also introduces a new syntax for annotating relations: AnnotatedRelation(s,p,o).comment = ["abc"] (NB the old syntax remains supported).

Here are the changes:

  • New syntax for annotations on relation, e.g. AnnotatedRelation(s,p,o).comment = "abc" (the old syntax remains supported)

  • Optimize annotations on relations

  • Support GRAPH clauses in SPARQL INSERT queries

  • Observation framework (see owlready2.observe and doc on the observation framework)

  • Bugfixes: - Fix the update of equivalent_to after destroying a class - Fix the update of annotations on class when modified with SPARQL queries - Fix SPARQL GRAPH clause in SELECT queries when querying the graph as a variable and all triples are not inside the GRAPH clause - Fix LANGMATCHES SPARQL function - Prevent multiprocessing loading of large ontologies when fork is not available (i.e. on Mac) - Fix subproperties parent classes when destroying a property - Fix loading of TransitiveProperty, SymmetricProperty, AsymmetricProperty, ReflexiveProperty, IrreflexiveProperty

Owlready2 0.43 has been released!

Owlready is a Python module for ontology-oriented programming. It can load OWL 2.0 ontologies and manipulate them transparently in Python.

This version includes a backward incompatible change: literal with different languages are now considered as different. For instance:

  • locstr("Test", "en") != "Test"

  • locstr("Test", "en") != locstr("Test", "fr")

This was not the case in previous releases, and it caused some weird bugs and confusion between literals.

I also would like to introduce a new projet: FullPy is Python module for designing web applications entirely in Python. It uses Owlready for data semantics and persistance. More information on FullPy can be found here:

Finally, due to a last minute bug, there is no 0.42 version.

Here are the changes:

  • INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: Consider literal with different language as different

  • Support GRAPH clauses in SPARQL queries

  • World now supports custom lock (e.g. World(lock = ...))

  • Bugfixes: - Fix World(enable_thread_parallelism = True) (was named enable_gevent) - Fix blank nodes in rdflib_store - Fix FILTER in SPARQL when the filter was just after a recursive query - Fix recursive query in SPARQL involving variables in their right part - Fix SPARQL query with annotations containing entities - Fix property creation when using a Union in the '>>' syntax (e.g. class Prop((MyClass | MyOtherClass) >> str): pass) - Fix UMLS extraction in PyMedTermino2 - Fix Class IRI with brackets (or other special characters) when writing RDF/XML file
