DBpedia Live Mirror

DBpedia-Live continuously generates zipped N-Triples files containing added/deleted triples upon its run.

This tool downloads those files and updates a local Virtuoso triple store.

Virtuoso (Enterprise or Open Source) Setup

DBpedia Live triple store update happens on different Named Graphs. We have the following enabled:

  • http://live.dbpedia.org — contains real time extracted data from Wikipedia
  • http://static.dbpedia.org — contains external datasets and data that cannot be extracted from Wikipedia but is useful to have.
  • http://dbpedia.org/resource/classes# — contains the up-to-date DBpedia ontology
  • http://dbpedia.org — virtual graph group that contains all the aforementioned graphs

To create graph groups in your local Virtuoso, you can adapt and run this script.

  1. Download the code from the repo
    git clone https://github.com/dbpedia/dbpedia-live-mirror.git
  2. Set up your Virtuoso instance and mirror-live.ini file.
