Morph-KGC is an engine that constructs RDF knowledge graphs from heterogeneous data sources with the R2RML and RML mapping languages. Morph-KGC is built on top of pandas and it leverages mapping partitions to significantly reduce execution times and memory consumption for large data sources.
Features :sparkles:
- User-friendly mappings with YARRRML.
- Transformation functions with RML-FNML, including Python UDFs.
- RDF-star generation with RML-star.
- RML views over tabular data sources and JSON files.
- Integration with RDFLib, Oxigraph and Kafka.
- Optimized to materialize large knowledge graphs.
- Remote data and mapping files.
- Input data formats:
- Relational databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MariaDB, SQLite.
- Tabular files: CSV, TSV, Excel, Parquet, Feather, ORC, Stata, SAS, SPSS, ODS.
- Hierarchical files: JSON, XML.
- In-memory data structures: Python Dictionaries, DataFrames.
- Cloud data lake solutions: Databricks, Snowflake.
- Property graph databases: Neo4j, Kùzu.

Getting Started :rocket:
PyPI is the fastest way to install Morph-KGC:
pip install morph-kgc
We recommend to use virtual environments to install Morph-KGC.
To run the engine via command line you just need to execute the following:
morph_kgc config.ini
Check the documentation to see how to generate the configuration INI file. Here you can also see an example INI file.
It is also possible to run Morph-KGC as a library with RDFLib and Oxigraph:
import morph_kgc
# generate the triples and load them to an RDFLib graph
g_rdflib = morph_kgc.materialize('/path/to/config.ini')
# work with the RDFLib graph
q_res = g_rdflib.query('SELECT DISTINCT ?classes WHERE { ?s a ?classes }')
# generate the triples and load them to Oxigraph
g_oxigraph = morph_kgc.materialize_oxigraph('/path/to/config.ini')
# work with Oxigraph
q_res = g_oxigraph.query('SELECT DISTINCT ?classes WHERE { ?s a ?classes }')
# the methods above also accept the config as a string
config = """
[DataSource1]
mappings: /path/to/mapping/mapping_file.rml.ttl
db_url: mysql+pymysql://user:password@localhost:3306/db_name
"""
g_rdflib = morph_kgc.materialize(config)
