Oort Generating Import Chain Docs

Generating ontology import chain documentation

Introduction

Some ontologies such as Uberon, GO and phenotype ontologies are used within a large import chain of ontologies. See for example

• http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/uberon/bridge/collected-metazoa
• http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/extensions/x-root-importer

The documentation for these ontologies are generated using OWLTools

Details

Ontology documentation generation is not yet integrated into the main Oort app. However, you can generate documentation by typing:

omake my-all

This assumes:

• you have a file my.owl in the same directory
• this ontology has an import directive
• the following are in your $PATH:
• make
• owltools
• dot
• pandoc
