Description: # Follow the Money
        
        [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/alephdata/followthemoney.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/alephdata/followthemoney)
        
        This repository contains a pragmatic data model for the entities most
        commonly used in investigative reporting: people, companies, assets,
        payments, court cases, etc.
        
        The purpose of this is not to model reality in an ideal data model, but
        rather to have a working data structure for researchers.
        
        `followthemoney` also contains code used to validate and normalize many
        of the elements of data, and to map tabular data into the model.
        
        ## Documentation
        
        For a general introduction to `followthemoney`, check the main documentation:
        
        * https://docs.alephdata.org/developers/followthemoney
        
        Part of this package is a command-line tool that can be used to process and
        transform data in various ways. This is documented here:
        
        * https://docs.alephdata.org/developers/ftm
        
        There's no built-in tooling to render the model metadata (i.e. the list of
        schemata). However, we can export the schema to RDF (RDF/OWL), the abstract
        data model behind linked data. There's a number of viewers for the RDF schema
        definitions generated from FollowTheMoney, e.g.:
        
        * [LODE documentation](http://150.146.207.114/lode/extract?url=https%3A%2F%2Falephdata.github.io%2Ffollowthemoney%2Fns%2Fftm.xml&owlapi=true&imported=true&lang=en)
        * [WebVOWL](http://www.visualdataweb.de/webvowl/#iri=https://alephdata.github.io/followthemoney/ns/ftm.xml)
        * Raw RDF, [XML](https://alephdata.github.io/followthemoney/ns/ftm.xml) or 
          [Turtle](https://alephdata.github.io/followthemoney/ns/ftm.ttl)
        
        ## Releasing
        
        We release a lot of version of `followthemoney` because even small changes
        to the code base require a pypi release to begin being used in `aleph`. To
        this end, here's the steps for making a release:
        
        ```bash
        git pull --rebase
        make test
        bumpversion patch
        git push --tags
        ```
        
        This will create a new patch release and upload a distribution of it. If
        the changes are more significant, you can run `bumpversion` with the `minor`
        or `major` arguments.
        
        When the schema is updated, please update the docs, ideally including the
        diagrams. For the RDF namespace and JavaScript version of the model, 
        run `make generate`.
