biocypher.write.relational._sqlite._SQLiteBatchWriter

class biocypher.write.relational._sqlite._SQLiteBatchWriter(*args, **kwargs)

Class for writing node and edge representations to a SQLite database. It uses the _PostgreSQLBatchWriter class under the hood, which already implements the logic to write the nodes/edges to a relational DBMS. Only the import bash script differs between PostgreSQL and SQLite and is therefore implemented in this class.

  • _construct_import_call

__init__(*args, **kwargs)

Abtract parent class for writing node and edge representations to disk using the format specified by each database type. The database-specific functions are implemented by the respective child-classes. This abstract class contains all methods expected by a bach writer instance, some of which need to be overwritten by the child classes.

Each batch writer instance has a fixed representation that needs to be passed at instantiation via the schema argument. The instance also expects an ontology adapter via ontology_adapter to be able to convert and extend the hierarchy.

Requires the following methods to be overwritten by database-specific writer classes:

  • _write_node_headers

  • _write_edge_headers

  • _construct_import_call

  • _write_array_string

  • _get_import_script_name

Parameters:

  • translator – Instance of Translator to enable translation of nodes and manipulation of properties.

  • deduplicator – Instance of Deduplicator to enable deduplication of nodes and edges.

  • delimiter – The delimiter to use for the CSV files.

  • array_delimiter – The delimiter to use for array properties.

  • quote – The quote character to use for the CSV files.

  • output_directory – Path for exporting CSV files.

  • db_name – Name of the database that will be used in the generated commands.

  • import_call_bin_prefix – Path prefix for the admin import call binary.

  • import_call_file_prefix – Path prefix for the data files (headers and parts) in the import call.

  • wipe – Whether to force import (removing existing DB content). (Specific to Neo4j.)

  • strict_mode – Whether to enforce source, version, and license properties.

  • skip_bad_relationships – Whether to skip relationships that do not have a valid start and end node. (Specific to Neo4j.)

  • skip_duplicate_nodes – Whether to skip duplicate nodes. (Specific to Neo4j.)

  • db_user – The database user.

  • db_password – The database password.

  • db_host – The database host. Defaults to localhost.

  • db_port – The database port.

  • rdf_format – The format of RDF.

  • rdf_namespaces – The namespaces for RDF.
