Get description of a Wikidata property? -

how can human readable property description of wikidata property (e.g.: p31) using pywikibot?

you can use action=wbgetentities properties, normal item.

to human readable descriptions p31:

https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&ids=p31 

and limit results 1 language (english):

https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&ids=p31&languages=en 

using pywikibot task seems bit of overkill (pywikibot framework building bots mass editing , like, on wikipedia). i'm not sure it's possible.
there other, more lightweight frameworks, wikitools. wikitools, this:

from wikitools import wiki, apirequest  pid = "p31" endpoint = "http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php" username = "xxx" password = "xxx"  site = wiki(endpoint, username, password) params = {'action':'wbgetentities', 'ids': pid} request = apirequest(site, params) result = request.query() print result["entities"][pid]["descriptions"]
