PropertySuggester

PropertySuggester is an extension to Wikibase to provide suggested properties when a user tries to add new statements to an item.

On Packagist:

Installation

The recommended way to use this library is via Composer.

Composer

To add this package as a local, per-project dependency to your project, simply add a dependency on propertysuggester/property-suggester to your project's composer.json file. Here is a minimal example of a composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "propertysuggester/property-suggester": "*"
    }
}

Setup

This extension adds a new table "wbs_propertypairs" that contains the information that is needed to generate suggestions. You can use PropertySuggester-Python to generate this data from a wikidata dump.

• run composer dump-autoload in the extension folder (if installed without composer)
• add require_once "$IP/extensions/PropertySuggester/PropertySuggester.php"; to your localsettings
• run maintenance/update.php to create the necessary table
• follow the readme of PropertySuggester-Python to generate and load suggestion data

Configuration

• $wgPropertySuggesterMinProbability - a float that sets a minimum threshold for suggestions (default 0.05)
• $wgPropertySuggesterDeprecatedIds - a list of ints that blacklist suggestions
• $wgPropertySuggesterInitialSuggestions - a list of ints that will be suggested when no statements exist
