[deepamehta-devel] Wikidata Toolkit for DM4.5 Available

[mre at deepamehta.de]

Hello!

I just released the dm4-wikidata-toolkit module as the first truely 4.5
compatible plugin into the free:

This plugin realizes (at least) Goal 3 of the DeepaMehta 4 - Wikidata
Connection [1]
- Enabling users of DM to re-use global entities, e.g. the city of
"Berlin" (or other obvious global entities alike) and sparing them of
creating those manually in every deepamehta4 installation over and over
again.

The out-of-the box feature set includes:
1 Analysis & selection of wikidata entities (based on their claims)
2 Configurable importer settings (esp. which language to take the entities
label and descriptions from)
3 Transformation of wikidata entities to dm4 standard topic types 
(Cities, Countries, Persons and Institutions)
4 Transformation of claims relating two wikidata items (custom
employee_of, citizen_of, student_of, affiliated_with and mentor_of assoc
types)
5 Setting up a custom query endpoint with dm4 based on wikidata

Download:
http://download.deepamehta.de/nightly/dm45-wikidata-toolkit-0.2.jar

Note: The WikidataToolkit (and thus this plugin) depends on the usage of
**Java 7**.

How and what the plugin does this in detail, is described here:

Just the importing of "Geo Coordinates" is not yet implemented but planned
to come up with the very next release.

Cheers!
