```## Try Grafito!
### Docker
The easiest way to try Grafito is using Docker (although, without support for the Desktop app - yet)
```
docker run -it arturolang/grafito
```or, if you want to run a specific script:
```
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/home arturolang/grafito
```### Installation
To install local, first you have to have installed the latest version of [Arturo](https://github.com/arturo-lang/arturo).
Then, just clone this repo and simply go to the folder via your terminal.
#### As a Library
After having installed the latest version of Arturo, you can use Grafito from any Arturo script as a library.
For example, here's how to run the above example:
```
arturo examples/sample11.art
```#### As a Standalone tool
Of course, you can also run Grafito as a tool on it own:
```
./grafito.art
```(If you pass a name, it will use it as your database file. If not, the database will be in-memory)
And you can see your lightweight graph engine in action!
## How To
### Create a simple Node
```red
graph.create "mygraph" [
put'person [name: "John" sex: 'm]
]
```The exact same thing using node helpers:
```red
graph.create "mygraph"
.helpers: [person]
[
person.new [name: "John", sex: 'm]
]
```### Create Relationships between Nodes
```red
graph.create "mygraph" [
john: put 'person [name: "John" sex: 'm]
joan: put 'person [name: "Joan" sex: 'f]link john 'marriedTo joan
]
```The exact same thing using node helpers and some syntactic sugar:
```red
graph.create "mygraph"
.helpers: [person]
[
john: person.new [name: "John", sex: 'm]
joan: person.new [name: "Joan", sex: 'f]john <~> 'marriedTo joan
]
```### Search Nodes
```red
graph "mygraph" [
inspect fetch 'person [name: "Joan"]
]
```
The exact same thing using node helpers:```red
graph "mygraph"
.helpers: [person]
[
inspect person [name: "Joan"]
]
```### Delete an existing Node
```red
graph "mygraph" [
unput fetch 'person [name: "John"]
]
```### Delete an existing Relationship
```red
graph "mygraph" [
unlink fetch 'person [name: "John"] 'marriedTo
fetch 'person [name: "Joan"]
]
```### Preview a Set of Nodes
```red
graph "mygraph" [
preview fetch 'person ø
]
```(If you run the `sample4` in the *examples* folder, you'll be a minimal movie database. Running the command `preview` will open up the Desktop app with the image you see above ;-))
### More complex queries
```red
graph "mygraph" [
inspect fetch'person [
sex: "m"
marriedTo: fetch 'person [name: "Joan"]
]
]
```The exact same thing using node helpers:
```red
graph "mygraph"
.helpers: [person]
[
inspect person [
sex: "m"
marriedTo: person [name: "Joan"]
]
]
```#### Reverse edge queries
```red
; using our sample11.art graphmovie [
directed: <| person "Clint Eastwood"
]
```#### Using filters
```red
graph "mygraph" [
fetch 'person [
surname:"Doe"
age: -> over: 30
]
]
```### Not just a query language!
Now, let's be reminded that although Grafito may present itself as an easy-to-use
Graph Query Language, actually it's a "shell" on top of Arturo. That is: you can use anything you would normally use in a full-blown programming language, *along with* the extra layer that is Grafito. Awesome, right?The above is a - very simple - example, but gives you definitely a rough idea (and no, [`union`](https://arturo-lang.io/documentation/library/sets/union/) has nothing to do with Grafito... it's just a normal command from Arturo's standard library)
```red
union
person [
sex: "m"
birthday: -> under: 1960
]
person [
sex: "f
isFrom: country "France"
]
```(totally random example: Find all the men that were born before 1960 + all the women from... France!)
## Command Reference
All of the following commands must run within a `graph` environment. In order to set it up, use:
```red
graph [
;; your code goes here
]
```
> ⚠️ The `graph` command is not needed when you run Grafito as a tool, since the "environment" is already set up for you. ;-)If you pass `null` (or `ø`) then the database will be *in-memory*. If you want to save to a file on disk, then pass a string with the desired database name. If the database already exists, it will be re-opened. If not, it will be created from scratch.
> 💡 You may force the database to be re-created from scratch, regardless of whether it exists, by setting the `.create` attribute. E.g.
> ```
> graph.create "mygraph" [
> ;; your code goes here
> ]
> ```### put
#### Description
Insert new node(s) to graph with given name and attributes.
#### Usage
put name :literal, :string
attributes :dictionary, :block#### Returns
- *:dictionary* (node)
- *:block* (of nodes)#### Examples
```red
put 'person [name: "John" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986]
```### unput
#### Description
Remove given node(s) from graph.
#### Usage
unput node :dictionary, :block#### Examples
```red
x: put 'person [name: "John" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986]
unput x
```### link
#### Description
Create a connection from source to target node with given name.
#### Usage
link source :dictionary (node), :block (of nodes)
name :literal, :string
target :dictionary (node), :block (of nodes)#### Returns
- *:dictionary* (edge)
#### Examples
```red
link put 'person [name: "John" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986] 'marriedTo
put 'person [name: "Mary" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986]
```### unlink
#### Description
Remove connection from source to target node with given name
#### Usage
unlink source :dictionary (node), :block (of nodes)
name :literal, :string
target :dictionary (node), :block (of nodes)#### Examples
```red
x: put 'person [name: "John" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986]
y: put 'person [name: "Mary" surname: "Doe" birthday: 1986]link 'marriedTo x y
unlink 'marriedTo x y
```### fetch
#### Description
Retrieves nodes with name that match all given attributes.
#### Usage
fetch name :literal, :string
properties :block :dictionary :null#### Returns
- *:block* of *:dictionary* (node)
#### Examples
```red
print fetch 'person [surname: "Doe"]
print fetch 'person [
surname: "Doe"
marriedTo: fetch'person [name: "Mary"]
]
```### preview
#### Description
Preview given array of nodes in Desktop app.
#### Usage
preview nodes :block#### Examples
```red
preview fetch 'person [surname: "Doe"]
```## Filter Reference
When querying - e.g. with `fetch` or `what` - you can search for results, not only for exact matches, but also using one of the filters below.
```red
fetch'person [
surname: "Doe" ; here, we are looking for an exact match
; that is: people with the surname Doe
]
``````red
fetch'person [
surname: [
contains: "D" ; here, we are using the 'contains filter
; that is: people whose surname contains the letter D
]
]
```(The above, using Arturo's powerful syntax, could also be written like:
```red
fetch'person [ surname: -> contains: "D" ]
```### contains
Get rows that *contain* the given text.
### prefix
Get rows that start with, or "have as prefix", the given text.
### suffix
Get rows that end with, or "have as suffix", the given text.
### over
Get rows with a numeric value *greater than* the given one.
### under
Get rows with a numeric value *less than* the given one.
### overOrEqual
Get rows with a numeric value *greater than or equal to* the given one.
### underOrEqual
Get rows with a numeric value *less than or equal to* the given one.
### in
Get rows with a numeric value *equal* to *one of those in* the given block.
### not
Get rows with a value *not equal to* the given one (or block of given values).
