Usage

The SDK provides a general Python interface to a remote DSMS deployment, allowing users to access, store and link data in a DSMS instance easily and safely. The package provides the following main capabilities:

• Managing Knowledge-Items (KItems), which are data instances of an explicitly defined semantic class type (KType)
• Creating, updating and deleting meta data and properties, e.g. date, operator, material response data for a conducted tensile test
• Administrating authorship, contact information and supplementary information upon making changes or adding KItems
• Semantic annotation of KItems
• Conduct simple free-text searches within the DSMS instance including filters (e.g. limiting the search for certain materials) as well as a more experts-aware SPARQL interface
• Linking KItems to other KItems
• Linking Apps to KItems, triggererd, for example, during a file upload
• Performing simple file upload and download using attachments to KItems
• Export of a knowledge (sub) graph as common serializations (.ttl, .json)

For the basic usage, please have a look on the Jupyter Notebook under examples/basic_usage.ipynb. This tutorial provides a basic overview of using the dsms package to interact with Knowledge Items.
