Graph Functions

This chapter describes various functions on a graph. A lot of these accept a vertex (or edge) example as parameter as defined in the next section.

Examples will explain the API on the the city graph:

Definition of examples

@startDocuBlock general_graph_example_description

Get vertices from edges.

Get vertex from of an edge

Get the source vertex of an edge

graph._fromVertex(edgeId)

Returns the vertex defined with the attribute _from of the edge with edgeId as its _id.

Parameters

• edgeId (required) _id attribute of the edge

Examples

@startDocuBlockInline generalGraphGetFromVertex
@EXAMPLE_ARANGOSH_OUTPUT{generalGraphGetFromVertex}
  var examples = require("@arangodb/graph-examples/example-graph.js");
  var graph = examples.loadGraph("social");
  var any = require("@arangodb").db.relation.any();
  graph._fromVertex("relation/" + any._key);
~ examples.dropGraph("social");
@END_EXAMPLE_ARANGOSH_OUTPUT
@endDocuBlock generalGraphGetFromVertex

Get vertex to of an edge

Get the target vertex of an edge

graph._toVertex(edgeId)

Returns the vertex defined with the attribute _to of the edge with edgeId as its _id.

Parameters

• edgeId (required) _id attribute of the edge

Examples

_neighbors

Get all neighbors of the vertices defined by the example

graph._neighbors(vertexExample, options)

The function accepts an id, an example, a list of examples or even an empty example as parameter for vertexExample. The complexity of this method is O(n*m^x) with n being the vertices defined by the parameter vertexExamplex, m the average amount of neighbors and x the maximal depths. Hence the default call would have a complexity of O(n*m);

Parameters

• vertexExample (optional) See Definition of examples
• options (optional) An object defining further options. Can have the following values:
  • direction: The direction of the edges. Possible values are outbound, inbound and any (default).
  • edgeExamples: Filter the edges, see Definition of examples
  • neighborExamples: Filter the neighbor vertices, see Definition of examples
  • edgeCollectionRestriction : One or a list of edge-collection names that should be considered to be on the path.
  • vertexCollectionRestriction : One or a list of vertex-collection names that should be considered on the intermediate vertex steps.

Parameters

• endVertexExample (optional) An example for the desired end Vertices (see Definition of examples).
• options (optional) An object containing options, see below:
