How to extract DDI and SMILES?

[Savant-HO]

Hello, can you help me? I'm a junior and recently working on a DDI project.
How to extract each drugs' drug-drug interaction and their SMILES ?
Thank you!

Looking at parse.ipynb, I think we only extract the InChI chemical structure and not SMILES. You could see if a similar xpath query is able to retrieve the SMILES or you could convert InChI to SMILES>

How to extract each drugs' drug-drug interaction

You can check if the interactions are available in the raw XML data. This is not a project where we're actively adding new features, so if you'd like to contribute this feature to the repo, you will have to take the lead.

Got it! Thank you for your timely response and guidance! It's very helpful to me.
Let me ask another question: How can the obtained drug-drug interactions be classified into different events?
