pubmed

access pubmed publication records

A simple library for communicating with pubmed publications.
Currently allows

• (a) searching on conjunctions and disjunctions,
• (b) fetching the details of a pubmed id(s)
• (c) the publications citing a paper, and
• (d) simple reporting of multiple fetched information.

It requires the curl executable to be in the path. Only tested on Linux.
It is being developed on SWI-Prolog 6.1.8 but should also work on Yap Prolog.

The current public version lags significantly behind my private sources.
People interested in recent developments should feel free to email me.

installation

It is highly recommended that you install from within SWI using its package manager.
To install simply do:

?- pack_install(pubmed).

And then load by :
?- [library(pubmed)].
