openMINDS Python is a small library to support the creation and use of openMINDS metadata models and schemas in your Python application, with import and export in JSON-LD format.
pip install openMINDS
from datetime import date
from openminds import Collection, IRI
import openminds.latest.core as omcore
# Create an empty metadata collection
collection = Collection()
# Create some metadata
mgm = omcore.Organization(
full_name="Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Inc.",
short_name="MGM",
homepage=IRI("https://www.mgm.com")
)
stan = omcore.Person(
given_name="Stan",
family_name="Laurel",
affiliations=omcore.Affiliation(member_of=mgm, start_date=date(1942, 1, 1))
)
ollie = omcore.Person(
given_name="Oliver",
family_name="Hardy",
affiliations=omcore.Affiliation(member_of=mgm, start_date=date(1942, 1, 1))
)
# Add the metadata to the collection
collection.add(stan, ollie, mgm)
# Check the metadata are valid
failures = collection.validate()
# Save the collection in a single JSON-LD file
collection.save("my_collection.jsonld")
# Save each node in the collection to a separate file
collection.save("my_collection", individual_files=True) # creates files within the 'my_collection' directory
# Load a collection from file
new_collection = Collection()
new_collection.load("my_collection.jsonld")This work is licensed under the MIT License.

This repository has two main branches: pipeline and main.
The pipeline contains the code for building the Python package from the openMINDS schemas.
The build process is triggered by changes to the schemas, and runs as a GitHub action.
The resultant package is copied to the main branch, and at intervals is published on PyPI.
