kbgen

This tool populates a toolKB ontology [1] with tools and file formats that are extracted
from Freebase [2] and Pronom [3].

Usage

Build and run with: ja -jar target/kbgen-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
The tool uses ontologies/kb.in.owl to insert formats and tools that are extracted from Freebase and Pronom.

The resulting ontology is stored in kb.out.owl.

In case of memory errors increase the memory limit, e.g. using the VM option -Xmx2g

Build

• The pellet protege plugin has to be imported to the local maven repository:

  mvn install:install-file -Dfile=libs/com.clarkparsia.protege.plugin.pellet.jar -DgroupId=com.github.ansell.pellet -DartifactId=pellet-protege-plugin -Dversion=1.0-LOCAL -Dpackaging=jar

Notes

• Because of some incompatible dependencies, the order of libraries is vital, especially of the pellet libraries.
