Wikidata API
A set of tools to read Wikidata from the Wikidata API. For write operations, see wikidata-edit. •Search entities •Get entities •By ids •By Wikipedia titles •By other Wikimedia projects titles •Simplify entities data •Get revisions •Advanced •Use a custom Wikibase instance
Wikidata Query
Wikidata Query allows to extract all sorts of data from Wikidata by walking the graph of entities using SPARQL. SPARQL can be a weird thing at first, but the Wikidata team and community really puts lots of efforts to make things easy with a super rich Wikidata Query Help page, an awesome tool to test you queries and visualize the result, and lots of examples! •Get JSON from a SPARQL query •Simplify results •Pre-baked queries •Get entities reverse claims
General helpers
•Work with ids •Sitelink helper •Wikidata Time converters
Context
This library had for primary purpose to serve the needs of the inventaire project but extending its capabilities to other needs it totally possible: feel welcome to post your suggestions as issues or pull requests!
Design constraints
•wikidata-sdk should stay "small" and dependency-free, so that a web application can include it in its bundle without paying a too high cost for it. A consequence is that the lib generates URLs where other libs would integrate doing the request and parsing it's response. But that actually feels quite right to do this way: simply generating the URLs let's users free to handle requests as they like (with callbacks, promises, async/await, whatever!)
•Therefore, it should focus on providing basic, general helper functions most application working with Wikidata would need.
•Edition operations should go into wikidata-edit as it involves working with Wikidata credentials/tokens.
We are developing and maintaining tools to work with Wikidata from NodeJS, the browser, or simply the command line, with quality and ease of use at heart. Any donation will be interpreted as a "please keep going, your work is very much needed and awesome. PS: love". Donate
