AbcDatalog is an open-source Java implementation of Datalog, a logic programming language. It provides ready-to-use implementations of common Datalog evaluation algorithms, and is designed to be easily extensible with new evaluation engines and new language features. We hope that it proves to be useful for both research and pedagogy.
