• Provides a high-level, user-friendly python interface for the nanopub server.

nanopub

The nanopub library provides a high-level, user-friendly python interface for searching, publishing and retracting nanopublications.

Nanopublications are a formalized and machine-readable way of communicating
the smallest possible units of publishable information. See the documentation
for more information.

Publishing

The nanopub library provides an intuitive API that makes publishing nanopublications much easier. The rationale is that you often do not want to worry about the details of composing the RDF that is often the same in each nanopublication. Instead you should focus on the content of your nanopublication: the assertion.

Searching

The NanopubClient provides methods for searching the nanopub server. It provides an (uncomplete) mapping to the nanopub server grlc endpoint.

Fetching

You can fetch nanopublications from the nanopub server using NanopubClient.fetch(). The resulting object is a Publication object that you can use to inspect the nanopublication.
