            <p>Documentation is hard work! I started the work on the <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/prov/">PROV Python package</a> nearly <a href="https://github.com/trungdong/prov/graphs/contributors">three years ago</a> and yet its <a href="http://prov.readthedocs.org/">documentation</a> is still quite lacking. As a small effort to make up for it, I thought a simple tutorial might help a bit.  </p>
<p>So here it is: <a href="http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/trungdong/notebooks/blob/master/PROV%20Tutorial.ipynb">the first tutorial for PROV Python</a>!  </p>
<p>It will guide you through:</p>
<ul>
<li>Installing the Prov package</li>
<li>Creating a PROV document in Python</li>
<li>Exporting the document into <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/prov-n/">PROV-N</a> and <a href="http://www.w3.org/Submission/2013/SUBM-prov-json-20130424/">PROV-JSON</a></li>
<li>Displaying the document in a graphical format like the one on the right</li>
<li>Saving a provenance document in the cloud at <a href="https://openprovenance.org/store/">ProvStore</a> and retrieve it back</li>
</ul>
<p>All the above can be done in 10-15 minutes!  </p>
<p>I hope you find <a href="http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/trungdong/notebooks/blob/master/PROV%20Tutorial.ipynb">the tutorial</a> useful. Any suggestion or request, please do <a href="https://github.com/trungdong/notebooks/issues">let me know here</a>.<a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a>  </p>

<p>PNG export of a simple example from the book <a href="http://www.provbook.org/">Provenance: An Introduction to PROV</a></p>
<p><em>Updated 27-Feb-2015</em>: I added a simple instruction in the tutorial showing how to read (i.e. deserialise) a PROV-JSON file into a ProvDocument instance. In addition, I simplified the section on interacting with <a href="https://openprovenance.org/store/">ProvStore</a> by using <a href="http://millar.io/">Sam Millar</a>'s <a href="https://github.com/millar/provstore-api">provstore-api</a> package.</p>
