It is designed primarily for RDF document generation and tools that need to resolve short-form identifiers to semantic namespaces.\n\nThe library handles prefix collisions across sources by allowing you to specify a priority ordering of prefix maps. It includes built-in data files for reproducibility and network independence, with an optional refresh mode to fetch the latest upstream definitions. It depends on curies for the actual expansion logic and pyyaml for configuration handling.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you work with RDF, ontologies, or semantic web technologies. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries no security vulnerabilities, and solves a real problem in prefix management. The Development Status 1 classifier is a caution flag\u2014verify that the API stability and performance meet your needs before adopting in production."},"id":"prefixmaps","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/prefixmaps","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/prefixmaps.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/prefixmaps/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-10-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"prefixmaps","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A python library for retrieving semantic prefix maps"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":327984,"position":7561,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.6"}
