entityshape
An API to compare a Wikidata item with an EntitySchema.
The API is available at http://entityshape.toolforge.org/api.
The API requires the following parameters to be provided with requests:
- language: e.g. en the language to return property names in
- entity: e.g. Q42 the Wikidata entity to check
- entityschema: e.g. E14 the EntitySchema to check against
The API returns a JSON object containing the following:
- error: details of any error which may have occurred
- schema: the EntitySchema checked against
- name: the display name of the EntitySchema
- validity: the validity of the schema (currently unused)
- properties: a json object describing the validity of each property in the entity
- statements: a json object describing the validity of each statement in the entity
This repository also contains the source code for the user script at
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Teester/EntityShape.js,
which allows use of this API on Wikidata entity pages.
