Graph-like database interface using Javascript, MySQL, and Mongo.

• Basic Goals
• Library Objects
  • grafite
  • grafiteQuery
  • nodeObject
  • queryObject
  • orderObject
• Manipulate Nodes
• Node Relationships
• Querying and Traversing Nodes
• nodeObject Methods

1. Create and manipulate objects
   • Create
   • Update
   • Delete
2. Relate objects to each other
   • Have multiple relationships
   • Remove object relationships
3. Query for objects
   • By object property
   • By relationship
4. Traverse from object to object
   • By object property
   • By relationship

The main interface for the library. Read the rest of this documentation for more information.

Returned by functions that query and traverse nodes:

• grafite.find
• grafiteQuery.traverse
• grafiteQuery.sort
• nodeObject.traverse

Has two available methods:

• traverse
• sort

Results from functions that create, manipulate, and find nodes:

• grafite.create
• grafite.get
• grafite.update
• grafite.find
• grafiteQuery.traverse
• grafiteQuery.sort
• nodeObject.traverse

Available methods:

• traverse
• update
• delete
• relateTo
• relatedTo
• unrelateFrom
• severFrom

An array with 3 elements used to query and traverse for nodes.

[
    upstream,
    query object,
    downstream
]

• upstream a string or an array of strings that define the upstream relationships to look for
• query object and object in the style of MongoDB find object
• downstream a string or an array of strings that define the downstream relationships to look for

Use null call be used for any 3 of these elements, indicating not to query on that field.

A plain object with a key-value pairs. Where the key is the field to sort on, and the value is either 1 for ascending order (defualt), or 0 or -1 for descending order.

Create a node.

• data an object
• callback(error, nodeObject)

Get a node.

• node nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error, nodeObject)

Update a node's data.

• node nodeID or nodeObject
• data an object, parameters with undefined values are removed
• callback(error, nodeObject)

Delete a node and node's relationships.

• node nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error)

Relate upstream node to downstream node with one or more relationships.

• upstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• relationship single relationship or an array an relationships
• downstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error)

Remove one or more relationships from upstream node to downstream node.

• upstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• relationship single relationship or an array of relationships
• downstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error)

Remove all relationships from upstream node to downstream node.

• upstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• downstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error)

Remove all relationships between both nodes.

• node nodeID or nodeObject
• node nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error)

Check if upstream node is related to downstream node, stopping at threshold number of jumps.

• upstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• downstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• threshold optional, defaults to 5, maximum number of steps to check
• callback(error, related)

Check if upstream node is immediately related to downstream node by one or more relationships.

• upstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• relationship single relationship or an array of relationships
• downstreamNode nodeID or nodeObject
• callback(error, related)

Find a node with given queries. Additional queries are OR conditions. Returns a grafiteQuery object.

• query queryObject, one or more can be used
• callback(error, nodes) optional, if not provided query will not be executed

Traverse to related nodes from a query. Must be used as a chained function from grafite.find or grafiteQuery.traverse. Additional queries are OR conditions.

• query queryObject, one or more can be used
• callback(error, nodes) optional, if not provided query will not be executed

Sort the results of a query. Callback is required

• order orderObject, one or more can be used
• callback(error, nodes) required, must be provided

Most of these are self explanatory. Look at their corresponding grafite methods to understand what they do.
