===Running Blazegraph===
===Registering for GraphDB Free===
You can either run Blazegraph locally on your own machine (best) or online at a local server (also ok).
To retrieve a download link for Ontotext's GraphDB Free tool, you first need to register. Here is the [https://www.ontotext.com/products/graphdb/download/?utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&utm_term=ontotext%20graphdb&utm_campaign=Search+Graphdb&hsa_cam=19852701758&hsa_mt=p&hsa_ver=3&hsa_src=g&hsa_ad=651747487851&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_tgt=kwd-1467556044238&hsa_acc=9129462532&hsa_grp=148766495402&hsa_kw=ontotext%20graphdb&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAh8OtBhCQARIsAIkWb69Mvno3kVHLrHHpZ_FV2_vnwf9IWoMa207bd43maPDUOm2R53UAuYYaAgCxEALw_wcB registration link] (or search for "ontotext graphdb registration").


'''Installing the Blazegraph database on your own computer:'''
''If you do not like registering for proprietary software, it is still possible to do most of the exercises using Blazegraph, which you can [https://blazegraph.com/ download here] (requires Java). Blazegraph is a powerful open-source tool, but GraphDB offers even more functionality and is what the lab leaders will prepare for this semester.
Download Blazegraph (blazegraph.jar) from here: [https://blazegraph.com/ https://blazegraph.com/]
You can place blazegraph.jar in the same folder of your python project for the labs.
Navigate to the folder of blazegraph.jar in your commandline/terminal using cd. (cd C:\Users\marti\info216 for me as an example). Now run this command:
java -server -Xmx4g -jar blazegraph.jar
You might have to [[https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/ install Java 64-bit JDK] if you have problems running Blazegraph. If you get an "Address already in use" error, this is likely because Blazegraph has been terminated improperly. Either restart the terminal-session or try to run this command instead:
java -server -Xmx4g -Djetty.port=19999 -jar blazegraph.jar
This changes the port of the Blazegraph server.


'''Running Blazegraph online:'''
===Installing and running GraphDB===
If you have trouble installing Blazegraph, you can use [http://sandbox.i2s.uib.no/bigdata/ a shared online server] for now. It provides the same Blazegraph interface, but runs in the cloud and can only be used from inside the UiB network. (If you are outside the UiB campus, you can connect through the [https://hjelp.uib.no/tas/public/ssp/content/detail/service?unid=a566dafec92a4d35bba974f0733f3663 UiB VPN] first.)
When you have received the download link in an email from the ''GraphDB Team'', you can proceed to install and run GraphDB in the following manner, depending on your system:
* On Windows:
** Download the GraphDB Desktop .msi installer file.
** Double-click the application file and follow the on-screen installer prompts.
** Locate the GraphDB Desktop application in the Windows Start menu and start it. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.


'''Using Blazegraph:'''
* On MacOS
* ''Create namespace:'' In the Blazegraph interface, you may go to the ''UPDATE'' tab and create a new namespace using default values and the ''Create namespace'' button. You '''must''' do this if you use the shared online server. You can also do this on your local server to keep your datasets separate. (If you do not create a namespace, the default is '''kb'''.)
** Download the GraphDB Desktop .dmg file.
* ''Uploading data:'' In the Blazegraph interface, go to the ''UPDATE'' tab and use the ''Browse...'' and ''Update'' buttons to load the file into Blazegraph.
** Double-click it and get a virtual disk on your desktop. Copy the program from the virtual disk to your hard disk Applications folder, and you’re set.
** You can use the data in the Turtle file [[File:russia_investigation_kg.txt]]. Make sure you save it with the correct extension, as ''russia_investigation_kg.ttl'' (not ''.txt'').  
** Start GraphDB Desktop by clicking the application icon. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.
** You can also use the Turtle file you saved after exercises 1 and 2.
* ''Querying and updating:'' In the Blazegraph interface, go to the ''QUERY'' and ''UPDATE'' tabs to enter queries and updates.


===SPARQL tasks===
* On Linux
'''Task:'''
** Download the GraphDB Desktop .deb or .rpm file.
Using the data in ''russia_investigation_kg.ttl'', write the following SPARQL queries:
** Install the package with sudo dpkg -i or sudo rpm -i and the name of the downloaded package. Alternatively, you can double-click the package name.
* SELECT all triples in your graph.
** Start GraphDB Desktop by clicking the application icon. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.
* SELECT all the interests of Cade.
* SELECT the city and country of where Emma lives.
* SELECT only people who are older than 26.
* SELECT Everyone who graduated with a Bachelor Degree.

Registering for GraphDB Free

To retrieve a download link for Ontotext's GraphDB Free tool, you first need to register. Here is the registration link (or search for "ontotext graphdb registration").

If you do not like registering for proprietary software, it is still possible to do most of the exercises using Blazegraph, which you can download here (requires Java). Blazegraph is a powerful open-source tool, but GraphDB offers even more functionality and is what the lab leaders will prepare for this semester.

Installing and running GraphDB

When you have received the download link in an email from the GraphDB Team, you can proceed to install and run GraphDB in the following manner, depending on your system:

  • On Windows:
    • Download the GraphDB Desktop .msi installer file.
    • Double-click the application file and follow the on-screen installer prompts.
    • Locate the GraphDB Desktop application in the Windows Start menu and start it. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.
  • On MacOS
    • Download the GraphDB Desktop .dmg file.
    • Double-click it and get a virtual disk on your desktop. Copy the program from the virtual disk to your hard disk Applications folder, and you’re set.
    • Start GraphDB Desktop by clicking the application icon. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.
  • On Linux
    • Download the GraphDB Desktop .deb or .rpm file.
    • Install the package with sudo dpkg -i or sudo rpm -i and the name of the downloaded package. Alternatively, you can double-click the package name.
    • Start GraphDB Desktop by clicking the application icon. The GraphDB Workbench opens at http://localhost:7200/.

For more information about setting up GraphDB you can check out their quick start guide: Quick Start Guide.

Setting up a repository

Follow the Create a Repository section in the Quick Start Guide. Create a new GraphDB Repository called, for example, info216_lab3_NN, where NN are your initials. Choose No inference for now. Otherwise, the default parameters are fine.

Connect to the new repository and pin it as your default repository.

Load data

Download the Turtle file File:Russia investigation kg.txt, and save it with the correct extension, as russia_investigation_kg.ttl (not .txt). (You can also experiment with the Turtle file you saved after exercises 1 and 2.) Load the Russia_investigation data through the GraphDB Workbench as described in the QuickStart guide.

You can use http://example.org/ as Base IRI.

Graph visualisation

Go to Explore -> Visual graph and create an Easy graph around the resource http://example.org#investigation_0. Double-click on nodes to expand them. Are there any more investigations related to Richard Nixon?

SPARQL tasks

Go to the SPARQL Query & Update tab.

Task: Using the data in russia_investigation_kg.ttl, write the following SPARQL SELECT queries. ( This page explains the Russian investigation KG a bit more.)

  • List all triples in your graph.
  • List the first 100 triples in your graph.
  • Count the number of triples in your graph.
  • Count the number of indictments in your graph.
  • List everyone who pleaded guilty, along with the name of the investigation.
  • List everyone who were convicted, but who had their conviction overturned by which president.
  • For each investigation, list the number of indictments made.
  • For each investigation with multiple indictments, list the number of indictments made.
  • For each investigation with multiple indictments, list the number of indictments made, sorted with the most indictments first.
  • For each president, list the numbers of convictions and of pardons made after conviction.

If you have more time

Task: Try to program some of the queries in a Python program (this will be the topic of later labs). You have two options:

Using rdflib: Read the Turtle file into an rdflib Graph and use the query() method.

g = Graph()
g.parse(..., format='ttl')
r = g.query(...your_query_string...)

The hard part is picking the results out of the object r...

Using SPARQLwrapper: You can use SPARQLwrapper (another Python API) to connect to your running GraphDB endpoint. See the Python example page for how to do this.
