BBR-PY

A Python library to work with URIs from Bebyggelseregistret.

BBR-PY can determine the item type using only its URI in 95% of all cases for the other 5% it falls back to making a HTTP lookup. BBR-PY can also get turn a local id into an Kulturarvsdata compatible URI as well as validate such.

Installation

pip install bbr

Usage

BBR items can be of five possible types:

• Building (b)
• Facility (a)
• Person (p)
• Organization (o)
• Environment (m)

import bbr

# returns 'b', 'a', or 'm'
bbr.get_item_type('<URI>')

#returns True or False
bbr.validate_uri('<URI>')

# returns an Kulturarvsdata compatible URI as a string
bbr.get_full_uri_from_local_id('<ID>')

BBR-PY can handle all types of URIs and URLs used by kulturarvsdata.se:

• http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/bbr/xml/16000300020896
• http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/bbr/rdf/16000300020896
• http://kulturarvsdata.se/raa/bbr/html/16000300020896
