Page 10 "Я из Одессы я просто бухаю." translation: I'm from Odessa I just drink. Meaning his drinking a lot of "Vodka" ^_^ (@tuc @hackernews) This is local meme - when someone asking question and you will look stupid in case you don't have answer.

1. graphs databases!
and
python

2. What’s inside?
‣
PostgreSQL
‣
Neo4j
‣
ArangoDB

3. Python Frameworks
‣
Bulbflow
‣
py4neo
‣

4. Relational to Graph model

“Switching from relational to the graph model”!

5. My motivation is quite
simple:

6. “The best material model of a cat is another, or
preferably the same, cat.”
–Norbert Wiener

8. Old good Postgres

9. create table nodes (
node integer primary key,
name varchar(10) not null,
feat1 char(1), feat2 char(1))
!
create table edges (
a integer not null references nodes(node) on update cascade on delete cascade,
b integer not null references nodes(node) on update cascade on delete cascade,
primary key (a, b));
!
create index a_idx ON edges(a);
create index b_idx ON edges(b);
!
create
!
unique index pair_unique_idx on edges (LEAST(a, b), GREATEST(a, b));
; and no self-loops
alter table edges add constraint no_self_loops_chk check (a <> b);
!

11. Neo4j

12. Most famous graph
database.
•
1,333 mentions within repositories on Github
•
1,140,000 results in Google
•
26,868 tweets
•
Really nice Admin interface
•
Awesome help tips

13. A lot of python libraries
Py2Neo, Neomodel, neo4django, bulbflow

14. ; Create a node1, node2 and
; relation RELATED between two nodes
CREATE (node1 {name:"node1"}),
(node2 {name: "node2"}),
(node1)-[:RELATED]->(node2);
!

16. neo4j is friendly and powerful.
The only thing is a bit complex
querying language – Cypher

17. py4neo nodes
from py2neo import neo4j, node, rel
!
!
graph_db = neo4j.GraphDatabaseService(
"http://localhost:7474/db/data/")
!
die_hard = graph_db.create(
node(name="Bruce Willis"),
node(name="John McClane"),
node(name="Alan Rickman"),
node(name="Hans Gruber"),
node(name="Nakatomi Plaza"),
rel(0, "PLAYS", 1),
rel(2, "PLAYS", 3),
rel(1, "VISITS", 4),
rel(3, "STEALS_FROM", 4),
rel(1, "KILLS", 3))

18. py4neo paths
from py2neo import neo4j, node
!
graph_db = neo4j.GraphDatabaseService(
"http://localhost:7474/db/data/")
alice, bob, carol = node(name="Alice"),
node(name="Bob"),
node(name="Carol")
abc = neo4j.Path(
alice, "KNOWS", bob, "KNOWS", carol)
abc.create(graph_db)
abc.nodes
# [node(**{'name': 'Alice'}),
# node(**{‘name': ‘Bob'}),
# node(**{‘name': 'Carol'})]

19. Alice KNOWS Bob KNOWS Carol

20. bulbflow framework
from bulbs.neo4jserver import Graph
g = Graph()
james = g.vertices.create(name="James")
julie = g.vertices.create(name="Julie")
g.edges.create(james, "knows", julie)

21. FlockDB
OrientDB
InfoGrid
HyperGraphDB
WAT?

22. ArangoDB

23. “In any investment, you expect to have fun and
make profit.”
–Michael Jordan

24. I’m developer of python driver for ArangoDB

25. •
NoSQL Database storage
•
Graph of documents
•
AQL (arango query language) to execute graph queries
•
Edge data type to create edges between nodes (with
properties)
•
Multiple edges collections to keep different kind of
edges
•
Support of Gremlin graph query language

26. Small experiment with graphs and twitter:!
I’ve looked on my tweets and people who added it
to favorites.
After that I’ve looked to that person’s tweets and did
the same thing with people who favorited their
tweets.

27. 1-level depth

28. 2-level depth

29. 3-level depth

30. Code behind
from arango import create
!
arango = create(db="tweets_maxmaxmaxmax")
arango.database.create()
arango.tweets.create()
arango.tweets_edges.create(
type=arango.COLLECTION_EDGES)
!

31. Here we creating edge from from_doc to to_doc
!
from_doc = arango.tweets.documents.create({})
to_doc = arango.tweets.documents.create({})
arango.tweets_edges.edges.create(from_doc, to_doc)
Getting edges for tweet 196297127
query = db.tweets_edge.query.over(
F.EDGES(
"tweets_edges",
~V("tweets/196297127"), ~V("outbound")))

32. Full example
•
Sample dataset with 10 users
•
Relations between users
•
Visualise within admin interface

33. Sample dataset
from arango import create
!
def dataset(a):
a.database.create()
a.users.create()
a.knows.create(type=a.COLLECTION_EDGES)
!
for u in range(10):
a.users.documents.create({
"name": "user_{}".format(u),
"age": u + 20,
"gender": u % 2 == 0})
!
!
a = create(db="experiments")
dataset(a)

34. Relations between users
def relations(a):
rels = (
(0, 1), (0, 2), (2, 3), (4, 3), (3, 5),
(5, 1), (0, 5), (5, 6), (6, 7), (7, 8), (9, 8))
!
!
!
get_user = lambda id: a.users.query.filter(
"obj.name == 'user_{}'".format(id)).execute().first
for f, t in rels:
what = "user_{} knows user_{}".format(f, t)
from_doc, to_doc = get_user(f), get_user(t)
a.knows.edges.create(from_doc, to_doc, {"what": what})
print ("{}->{}: {}".format(from_doc.id, to_doc.id, what))
a = create(db="experiments")
relations(a)

35. Relations between users

37. AQL, getting paths
FOR p IN PATHS(users, knows, 'outbound')
FILTER p.source.name == 'user_5'
RETURN p.vertices[*].name
from arango import create
from arango.aql import F, V
!
!
def querying(a):
for data in a.knows.query.over(
F.PATHS("users", "knows", ~V("outbound")))
.filter("obj.source.name == '{}'".format("user_5"))
.result("obj.vertices[*].name")
.execute(wrapper=lambda c, i: i):
print (data)
!
!
a = create(db="experiments")
!
querying(a)

38. Paths output
['user_5']
['user_5',
['user_5',
['user_5',
['user_5',
'user_1']
'user_6']
'user_6', 'user_7']
'user_6', 'user_7', 'user_8']
