This project aims to develop an OBO Library-friendly release of the NCI Thesaurus. Goals include adopting OBO conventions for term identifiers and ontology dereferencing, as well as improved semantic integration with existing OBO ontologies. We are working in collaboration with NCI staff under NCI/Leidos contract #17X118.
The OBO edition is currently a work in progress, so ontology content may change frequently. The in-progress ontology is available here: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ncit.owl
Additional downloads may be available in the project wiki.
Please see the project wiki for more information.
- Enter
src/ontologydirectory - Build the docker image to get all the tools together (alternatively, install the tools locally, see top of
Makefile) - Run the make build process
- Deploy the release on GitHub. Make sure the
GHVERSIONstarts with a lower casevand corresponds to the exact date the build process above was run.
cd src/ontology
make docker-build
sh odk.sh make all -B
make deploy_release GHVERSION=v2022-08-19
Last time I tried this I was working on a system where I could not easily install gh. This is a workaround:
./odk.sh bash # Go inside ODK
gh auth login # Login with authentication token
git config --global --add safe.directory /work #This may be necessary if you do not have the correct access rights
make deploy_release GHVERSION=v2023-10-19 #(the usual)
