SPARQL

Revision as of 13:54, 3 August 2022 by Elfix (talk | contribs) (→‎Language LL All Languages → Count records: fix comment)

Help:SPARQL gathers a list of SPARQL queries in the context of Lingua Libre, ready to use, alongside with beginner-friendly inline-comments, introductions to concepts, code snippets and a few tools. To dive into it, first check the content's structure visible in the outline. This page allows users not familiar with SPARQL to easily query the LinguaLibre knowledge graph, and to download or directly feed that data into an application. To fit with most frequent uses, the page focuses towards web development.

Code snippets

Fetch data using SPARQL

LinguaLibre data can be fetched using various coding languages such as Python, Javascript, R and others, returning JSON or other formats.

  • For code snippet in your language : open query.wikidata.org (WikiData Query Service, aka WDQS), run your SPARQL query, click "Code" : a pop up window appears with various implementations.
  • For downloading data, click "Download".

Javascript:
At least 3 methods exists (code snippet), example:

Query Result's basic unit
SPARQL:
SELECT ?item WHERE { ?item prop:P2 entity:Q5 } LIMIT 10

{ … },
{
  "item": {
    "type": "uri",
    "value": "https://lingualibre.org/entity/Q12"
  },
  "itemLabel": {
    "xml:lang": "en",
    "type": "literal",
    "value": "beginner"
  }
},
{ … }
Javascript: 
var endpoint = 'https://lingualibre.org/sparql';
var sparql = 'SELECT ?item WHERE { ?item prop:P2 entity:Q5 } LIMIT 10';
$.getJSON(endpoint,
	{ query: sparql, format: 'json' },
	function(data){ console.log('JQuery: ',data)}
);

Merging data

Advanced SPARQL queries with COUNT() and others are often slow (>3secs, sometime >100secs). You are encouraged to do multiple smaller SPARQL queries to then merge their responded data. By example, the complementary Javascript snippet below would help web developers to do so. 

// Data from 3 sparql queries.
// Important: One key must be similar in all datasets, here: 'qid'
const langs = [{ qid: 'Q209', label: 'Breton', iso:'bre' }, { qid: 'Q34', label: 'Marathi', iso: 'mar' }],
    speakersFemales = [{ qid: 'Q209', genderF: 3, recordsF: 60 }, { qid: 'Q34', genderF: 21, recordsF:5046 }],
    speakersMales = [{ qid: 'Q209', genderM: 7, recordsM: 218 }, { qid: 'Q34', genderM: 85, recordsM:32964 }];
// Toolbox for merging data by same id
var merge2ArraysBySameId = function(arr1,arr2,id1){
	return arr1.map( item1 => { 
  	var identical = arr2.find(obj => obj[id1] === item1[id1]); 
  	return Object.assign(identical, item1) 
  } );
}
// Mergings
var step1 = merge2ArraysBySameId(langs,speakersFemales,'qid');
var step2 = merge2ArraysBySameId(step1,speakersMales,'qid');
alert(JSON.stringify(step2))
