pip install lightrdf
With Parser:
import lightrdf
parser = lightrdf.Parser()
for triple in parser.parse("./go.owl", base_iri=None):
print(triple)With RDFDocument:
import lightrdf
doc = lightrdf.RDFDocument("./go.owl")
# `None` matches arbitrary term
for triple in doc.search_triples(None, None, None):
print(triple)import lightrdf
doc = lightrdf.RDFDocument("./go.owl")
