Data loader

A data loader application to refresh the data in the Phenoscape database on a daily basis is under development. The application is being developed as a Perl module which:

  1. Downloads curated NeXML files from the Phenoscape SVN repositories
  2. Drops and recreates the database
  3. Loads the requisite ontologies into the database
  4. Loads the data from the curated NeXML files into the database, and
  5. Invokes the OBD reasoner to elicit implicit information from the data and adds them to the database
