# AutoGraph-Obsidian: Automated Knowledge Graph Generation.

## Introduction
AutoGraph is a tool that enables rapid, automated knowledge graph generation. AutoGraph does this by mining scientific literature against a search query for keywords. From this data, an Obsidian vault is made where each mined keyword has its own markdown file containing: i) the name of the paper the keyword was scraped from and ii) links to other keywords from that paper. When two papers share a keyword, a link is established between those articles through that term. Over many papers, this allows a network of interactions between articles in a field to be visualized. The purpose of this tool is not only to establish graph-based summaries of topics but also to identify hidden links between divergent fields - largely inspired by the works of [Manfred Kochen](https://dblp.org/pid/31/4553.html).

## Prerequisites:
* [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) >= 3.6
* [Obsidian.md](https://obsidian.md/)

## Quickstart:
```
pip3 install autograph-obsidian
```

## Usage:
```
Usage: autograph [OPTIONS] QUERY

Arguments:

QUERY The main search string.

Options:
-l, --limit INTEGER Number of papers to mine. Default = 500.
-v, --version Show version number and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
```
e.g.
```
autograph 'Genetic Code Expansion' -l 100
```
