DrugBank Local Query Skill

Search local DrugBank data by any entity. Auto-detects query type:

Input Pattern	Detected As	Match Logic
`DB00945`	DrugBank ID	exact on `drugbank_id`
anything else	free text	substring on `name`, `synonyms`, `cas_number`

Data

Base dir: resources_metadata/drug_knowledgebase/DrugBank/
Files:
- full database.xml — rich fields: description, targets, interactions, categories, synonyms, groups
- drugbank vocabulary.csv — lightweight: DrugBank ID, name, CAS, synonyms
Auto-select: prefers XML if present, falls back to vocabulary CSV

API

Function	Input	Returns
`load(path)`	file path (XML or TSV/CSV, auto-detected)	`list[dict]`
`search(data, entity)`	single entity string	`list[dict]`
`search_batch(data, entities)`	list or comma-separated string	`dict[str, list[dict]]`
`summarize(hits, entity)`	hit list + label	compact text
`to_json(hits)`	hit list	JSON string

Usage

from 07_DrugBank import load, search, search_batch, summarize, to_json

data = load()                              # auto-selects XML or CSV

# single query
hits = search(data, "aspirin")
print(summarize(hits, "aspirin"))

# batch query
results = search_batch(data, ["metformin", "DB00316", "ibuprofen"])
for entity, hits in results.items():
    print(summarize(hits, entity))

# JSON output
print(to_json(hits[:1]))
