Protege 4.x Documentation

This page contains a collection of links to documentation for end users of the Protege 4.x series.

Protege 4.0 is currently in alpha and we are interested in soliciting your feedback. We have set up a mailing list specifically for discussion about Protege 4.0. You can subscribe to the list via the list information page: http://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/p4-feedback.


Documentation

Protege-OWL Editor


Protege 4.x Plug-ins

Finding Plugins

  • Plugins for Protege 4.x OWL editor - the list of "Compatible Plugins" on this page is the result of a semantic query that gathers all plug-ins that have declared themselves compatible with the 4.x version of the Protege-OWL editor.
  • CO-ODE Protege 4.x Plugins - the CO-ODE group at the University of Manchester is the biggest contributor of plug-ins to the Protege-OWL editor. This is a good place to go to download early releases and source code for CO-ODE developed plug-ins.

Advertising Plugins

If you have developed a plug-in for Protege-OWL 4.0 and you would like to contribute it to the community, follow the following steps:

  • Click the New Plugin Link. You may want to right click and choose a new window.
  • Choose a name for the page that discusses the new plugin (e.g. "Sub Ontology Tab").
  • Click "Add or Edit"
  • Be sure to add "Protege-OWL" (exactly like so without the quotes) in the Works with field. Also give the plugin a type (commonly "Tab Widget").
  • Fill in the other fields and save.
  • Click the create new version and use the naming convention described. Without this step the plugin will not show up in the plugin list below.
  • Make the plugin compatible with "Protege-OWL 4.0".
  • When you are done save the page and make sure that your plugin shows up on the 4.x version of the Protege-OWL editor page. It seems for some reason this page often does not update for a while so you may need to come back later.

Some useful links when adding a plugin page to the wiki are the following:

  • Organization Category shows all the types of organizations that are currently known. There are some duplicates already.
  • Plugin Category is useful because it lists both the different plugin types (e.g. view, import, export, etc) and also has a list of all the plugins currently known.
  • Person Category lists the people who are known to this ontology.
