Morph-xR2RML: MongoDB-to-RDF translation

Morph-xR2RML is an implementation of the xR2RML mapping language that enables the description of mappings from relational or non relational databases to RDF. xR2RML is an extension of R2RML and RML.

Morph-xR2RML comes with connectors for relational databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MonetDB) and the MongoDB NoSQL document store. Two running modes are available:

Morph-xR2RML was developed by the I3S laboratory as an extension of the Morph-RDB project which is an implementation of R2RML. It is made available under the Apache 2.0 License.

Maturity

The graph materialization mode is mature and has been used in several projects to generate large amounts of RDF triples (-1.3M triples in Covid-on-the-Web).

The query rewriting mode is a prototype implementation. It was meant to demonstrate the effectiveness of a rewirting method but is not meant for production environment.

Quick start guide

The easiest to start using Morph-xR2RML to materialize a graph from a MongoDB database is by using Docker. Follow these instructions.
