Spring Data Gremlin provides initial Spring Data support for those databases using Gremlin query language. With annotation oriented programming model, it simplified the mapping to the database entity. It also provides supports for basic and custom query.

This project works with any Gremlin-compatible data store, and also with Azure Cosmos DB. Cosmos is a globally-distributed database service that allows developers to work with data using a variety of standard APIs, such as Graph, MongoDB, and SQL. Spring Data Gremlin provides a delightful experience to interact with Azure Cosmos DB Graph API.

This repository supports both Spring Data 2.0.x and 2.1.x. Below packages are available with latest release version. We recommend users to leverage latest version for bug fix and new features.

This repository only supports Spring Data 2.x.

• Spring Data CRUDRepository basic CRUD functionality
  • save
  • findAll
  • findById
  • deleteAll
  • deleteById
• Spring Data @Id annotation. There're 2 ways to map a field in domain class to id field of a database entity.
  • annotate a field in domain class with @Id
  • set name of this field to id
• Default annotaion
  • @Vertex maps an Object to a Vertex
  • @VertexSet maps a set of Vertex
  • @Edge maps an Object to an Edge
  • @EdgeSet maps to a set of Edge
  • @EdgeFrom maps to the head Vertex of an Edge
  • @EdgeTo maps to the tail Vertex of an Edge
  • @Graph maps to an Object to a Graph
• Supports advanced operations
  • <T> T findVertexById(Object id, Class<T> domainClass);
  • <T> T findEdgeById(Object id, Class<T> domainClass);
  • <T> boolean isEmptyGraph(T object)
  • long vertexCount()
  • long edgeCount()
• Supports Spring Data custom query find operation, e.g., findByAFieldAndBField
• Supports any class type in domain class including collection and nested type.

spring-data-gremlin is published on Maven Central Repository.
If you are using Maven, add the following dependency.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.microsoft.spring.data.gremlin</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-data-gremlin</artifactId>
    <version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>

Setup application.yml file.(Use Azure Cosmos DB Graph as an example.)

gremlin:
  endpoint: url-of-endpoint 
  port: 443
  username: /dbs/your-db-name/colls/your-collection-name
  password: your-password
  telemetryAllowed: true # set false to disable telemetry

Define a simple Vertex entity with @Vertex.

@Vertex
public class Person {

    @Id
    private String id;

    private String name;

    private String age;

    ...
}

Define a simple Edge entity with @Edge.

@Edge
public class Relation {

    @Id
    private String id;

    private String name;

    @EdgeFrom
    private Person personFrom;

    @EdgeTo
    private Person personTo;

    ...
}

Define a simple Graph entity with @Graph.

@Graph
public class Network {

    @Id
    private String id;

    public Network() {
        this.edges = new ArrayList<Object>();
        this.vertexes = new ArrayList<Object>();
    }

    @EdgeSet
    private List<Object> edges;

    @VertexSet
    private List<Object> vertexes;
    
    ...
}

Extends DocumentDbRepository interface, which provides Spring Data repository support.

import GremlinRepository;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

@Repository
public interface PersonRepository extends GremlinRepository<Person, String> {
        List<Person> findByName(String name); 
}

findByName method is custom query method, it will find the person with the name property.

Here create an application class with all the components

@SpringBootApplication
public class SampleApplication implements CommandLineRunner {

    @Autowired
    private PersonRepository repository;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(SampleApplication.class, args);
    }

    public void run(String... var1) throws Exception {

        private final Person testUser = new Person("PERSON_ID", "PERSON_NAME", "PERSON_AGE");

        repository.deleteAll();
        repository.save(testUser);

        ... 
    }
}

Autowired UserRepository interface, then can do save, delete and find operations. Spring Data Azure Cosmos DB uses the DocumentTemplate to execute the queries behind find, save methods. You can use the template yourself for more complex queries.
