SQL2Gremlin

Introduction

SQL2Gremlin teaches Apache TinkerPop's Gremlin graph traversal language using typical patterns found when querying data with SQL. The format of the Gremlin results will not necessarily match the format of the SQL results. While SQL can only provide results in a tabular form, Gremlin provides various ways to structure a result set. Next, the Gremlin queries demonstrated are for elucidatory purposes and may not be the optimal way to retrieve the desired data. If a particular query runs slow and an optimal solution is desired, please do not hesitate to ask for help on the Gremlin-users mailing list. Finally, the SQL examples presented make use of T-SQL syntax. MySQL users may not know some of the expressions (e.g. paging), but should be able to understand the purpose of the query.

If you would like to see other SQL2Gremlin translations using the Northwind dataset, please provide a ticket on the SQL2Gremlin issue tracker.

Northwind Graph Model

Northwind Graph Model

Getting Started

To get started download the latest version of the Gremlin shell from www.tinkerpop.com and extract it. Then download the file northwind.groovy and start your Gremlin shell:

# find the latest Gremlin shell download
MIRRORS_URL=`curl -s http://tinkerpop.apache.org/ | grep -o 'http[s]*://.*\-console-.*\-bin\.zip'`
LATEST_URL=`curl -s $MIRRORS_URL | egrep -o 'http[s]?://[^"]*-console-[^"]*-bin.zip' | head -1`
LATEST_FILENAME=`echo ${LATEST_URL} | grep -o '[^/]*$'`
LATEST_DIRECTORY=`echo ${LATEST_FILENAME} | sed 's/-bin\.zip//'`

# download and extract the Gremlin shell
wget -q ${LATEST_URL}
unzip -q ${LATEST_FILENAME}

# start the Gremlin shell
wget -q http://sql2gremlin.com/assets/northwind.groovy -O /tmp/northwind.groovy
${LATEST_DIRECTORY}/bin/gremlin.sh -i /tmp/northwind.groovy

In your Gremlin shell create the Northwind graph, a graph traversal source and you’re ready to go:

gremlin> graph = NorthwindFactory.createGraph()
==>tinkergraph[vertices:3209 edges:6177]
gremlin> g = graph.traversal()
==>graphtraversalsource[tinkergraph[vertices:3209 edges:6177], standard]

The graph is now filled with vertices and edges. Vertices have a number of properties, depending on what they represent. The following properties are globally indexed for fast lookups:

VertexLabel Property Description

region

name

The code or name for a specific region.

country

name

The code or name for a specific country.

category

name

The name of a specific category.

customer

customerId

The well-known Northwind customer identifier (e.g. ALFKI).

Recommendation

This sample shows how to recommend 5 products for a specific customer. The products are chosen as follows:

  • determine what the customer has already ordered

  • determine who else ordered the same products

  • determine what others also ordered

  • determine products which were not already ordered by the initial customer, but ordered by the others

  • rank products by occurence in other orders
