OrientDB Manual 1.7.8

Import from DB-Pedia

DBPedia exports all the entities as GZipped CSV files. Features:

  • First line contains column names, second, third and forth has meta information we'll skip (look at "skipFrom": 1, "skipTo": 3in CSV transformer)
  • The vertex class name is created automatically based on file name, so we can use the same file against any DBPedia file
  • The Primary Key is the "URI" field where it has been created a UNIQUE index (look at "ORIENTDB" loader)
  • The "merge" transformer is used to allow to reimport or update any file without generating duplicates
