 protégé plug-ins & applications

Protégé is easily extensible and many people have developed plug-ins and applications for the Protégé-Frames and/or Protégé-OWL editors.

In addition to downloading Protégé, we encourage you to browse the library of plug-ins and applications on our Wiki. Please refer to the section entitled "How do I find plug-ins for Protégé?" for helpful tips on navigating the wiki-based plug-in library.

How do I find plug-ins for Protégé?

Good News! For many years we manually maintained lists of known Protégé plug-ins. This method was labor intensive and error prone (read more). In late 2007 we began transitioning to a new wiki that uses the Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) software. The result is a plug-ins library that is much easier for our user community to navigate in terms of locating extensions for particular versions or flavors of Protégé.

Due to the semantic underpinnings of SMW, we have the ability to automatically generate lists of plug-ins based on criteria such as topics, types, plug-ins for Protégé-OWL vs. Protégé-Frames, plug-ins for Protege 3.4 vs. 4.0, etc. To follow is a list of links to wiki articles that we feel will be of particular interest to those searching for Protégé plug-ins:
Please note: the process of migrating information about plug-ins from our manually maintained lists to the new wiki is somewhat ongoing. If you are having trouble finding a plug-in on the new wiki, you might try looking on our old wiki, which is the last place we were maintaining such lists. If you are still having problems, please send questions and/or comments to the protege-discussion mailing list.


How do I contribute my plug-in or application to the library?

More Good News! The Protégé wiki now uses an extension called Semantic Forms, which gives plug-in contributors the ability to add and edit data about plug-ins using web-based forms. There is no longer any need to know wiki syntax if you want to enter your contribution on our wiki!

Use the following steps to contribute your work to the plug-ins library:


Congratulations! By now we hope you have successfully added your contribution to our library! If you need to edit information about your plug-in, you can click the "Edit this plugin" button on the right-hand side of the wiki article and you will be returned to the form for adding/entering data about your plug-in.

If you have difficulties trying to contribute something to the library, please send questions to the protege-discussion mailing list.
