OBI Check out
check out latest version of OBI
svn co http://obi.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/obi/trunk/src/ontology/
Details for SVN see http://obi-ontology.org/page/General_introduction#SVN
Recommended software installations
Ideally complete these steps before the workshop.
- Download Protégé 4.1 Release Candidate 5 at:
http://protege.stanford.edu/download/protege/4.1/installanywhere/Web_Installers/
- Follow the instruction to install Protégé posted on the same page
- Load the checked out version of OBI from the file, or load from the url: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/obi.owl
- If the OBI classes are displayed labeled as IDs rather than human readable text
- Make sure that under the "View" menu, "Render by label is checked"
- Click 'File' menu and choose 'Preferences...':
- In the 'Renderer' tab, click on the 'Annotations ...' button, add 'en, en-US, !' in the languages column.
- If you encounter speed difficulties with reasoning (> 5 minutes)
- In the reasoner tab "initialization" , choose only "class members" and under "Displayed inferences" choose only "unsatisfiable classes", "equivalent classes" and "superclasses". No instance reasoning is done, but for most OBI development this isn't necessary. These settings can make a particularly big difference when using Hermit as the reasoner.
