UPDATE 2022-10-25
This repository is being replaced by https://github.com/linkml/prefixmaps/issues/6
Newer code should not use the prefixcommons package on PyPI, but instead use prefixmaps combined with curies
A python API for working with ID prefixes in the context of
prefixcommons <http://prefixcommons.org>__
Current functionality: Uses JSON-LD contexts to expand and contract CURIEs to URIs
E.g. GO:0008150 <=> http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO\_0008150
::
from prefixcommons import contract_uri print(contract_uri('http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0008150')) ['GO:0008150']
from prefixcommons import expand_uri print(expand_uri('GO:000850')) http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0008150
The above uses standard JSON-LD context files from
prefixcommons/biocontext <https://github.com/prefixcommons/biocontext>__
You can pass your own
::
cmaps = [{'GO': 'http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_'}] print(contract_uri('http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0008150'), cmaps) ['GO:0008150']
