AlohaFest/GraphQ_Trans

GraphQ Trans is a source-to-source compiler that supports the transpilation among multiple graph query languages via a unified intermediate representation. You may install this package via pip:

pip install graphq_trans

For our demonstration website, please visit https://graphqtrans.xlore.cn/

Setup Environment

This package has the following dependencies:

Python >= 3.6.2
ANTLR >= 4.9.2
antlr4-python3-runtime >= 4.9.2

This toolkit relies on ANTLR4 for front-end analysis, please refer to their tutorial for setup.

Quick Start

GraphQ Trans provides a set of easy-to-use APIs for transpiling graph query languages. Here's a simple example of how to use the toolkit to convert between two graph query languages:

from graphq_ir.sparql.translator import Translator as SparqlTranslator
from graphq_ir.ir.translator import Translator as IRTranslator

sparql_translator = SparqlTranslator() # Create a SparqlTranslator that translates SPARQL to graphqIR
ir_translator = IRTranslator() # Create a IRTranslator that translates graphqIR to Cypher

# the SPARQL query for "Get all entities that are human"
sparql_query = 'SELECT DISTINCT ?e WHERE { ?e <pred:instance_of> ?c . ?c <pred:name> "human" } '

ir = sparql_translator.to_ir(sparql_query) # translates sparql to ir
cypher_query = ir_translator.to_cypher(ir) # translates ir to cypher
print(cypher_query)

The returned Cypher query will be:

MATCH (n1:human)
RETURN n1.name

Style Requirement

SPARQL

Our SPARQL naming rules are adopted from KBQA dataset KQA Pro. For variables, we have

Schema	Naming Style	Example
Entity	?e, ?e_1, ?e_2, ...	?e_1 <nationality> "British" .
Concept	?c, ?c_1, ?c_2, ...	?c <pred:name> "human" .
Predicate	?r, ?r_1, ?r_2, ...	?e ?r ?e_1 .
Attribute	?pv, ?pv_1, ...	?e_2 <duration> ?pv_3 .
Value	?v, ?v_1, ?v_2, ...	?pv <pred:value> ?v_1 .

For common predicates, we have

Predicate	Format	Example
Label	<pred:name>	?e_1 <nationality> "British" .
Instance of	<pred:instance_of>	?c <pred:name> "human" .
Value is	<pred:value>	?pv <pred:value> "42"^^xsd:double.
Unit	<pred:unit>	?pv <pred:unit> "month" .

Cypher

For convenience of KBQA, we design the transpiler based on the need of getting the labels directly. Therefore, to query variable x, please use

...
RETURN x.name
...

KoPL

For KoPL, we support all styles that satisfy the language grammar. Please refer to their repository for detailed documentation: https://github.com/THU-KEG/KoPL

Lambda-DCS

For lambda-DCS, please refers to the original paper (Liang, 2013) for more specific instructions
