This document describes example SQL queries which can be used to query the database.
FIELD
/* Example of defining a field */
DEFINE FIELD age ON person TYPE number -- Define a numeric field
DEFINE FIELD age ON person TYPE number MIN 0 MAX 100 -- ... with min and max allowed values
DEFINE FIELD age ON person TYPE number MIN 0 MAX 100 NOTNULL -- ... which can't be set to null
DEFINE FIELD age ON person TYPE number MIN 0 MAX 100 NOTNULL VALIDATE -- ... which will fail if not a number
DEFINE FIELD age ON person TYPE number MIN 0 MAX 100 NOTNULL VALIDATE READONLY -- ... which is not able to be changed once defined
DEFINE FIELD iso ON output TYPE string MATCH /[a-zA-Z0-9]+/ -- Define a field which matches a regular expresion
/* Example of defining a field with allowed values */
DEFINE FIELD kind ON address TYPE custom ENUM ["home","work"] -- Define a custom field
DEFINE FIELD kind ON address TYPE custom ENUM ["home","work"] DEFAULT "home" -- ... which defaults to 'home' if not defined
/* Example of defining a computed field */
DEFINE FIELD name ON person TYPE string CODE "return [doc.data.firstname, doc.data.lastname].join(' ');" -- Define a computed field
/* Remove the field definition */
REMOVE FIELD name ON person
INDEX
/* Example of defining a custom index */
DEFINE INDEX sortable ON person COLUMNS name -- Define a simple index
DEFINE INDEX sortable ON person COLUMNS firstname, lastname -- Define a compound index
DEFINE INDEX sortable ON person COLUMNS firstname, lastname, emails.*.value -- Define a multi compound index
DEFINE INDEX sortable ON person COLUMNS emails.*.value UNIQUE -- Define a unique index
/* Remove the index definition */
REMOVE INDEX sortable ON person
CREATE
/* Example of creating a table */
CREATE person -- Creates a new person
CREATE person SET age=28, name='Tobie' -- ... and sets some fields
CREATE person CONTENT {"firstname":"Tobie", "lastname":"Morgan Hitchcock"} -- ... and sets some fields
/* Example of creating a specific record */
CREATE @person:id -- Creates a the person if they do not exist
CREATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie' -- ... and sets name+age
CREATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags = [] -- ... and sets tags to an empty set
CREATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags = ['old'] -- ... and sets tags to a set with 1 element
/* Example of multiple records in one statement */
CREATE @person:one, @person:two -- Creates both person records if they do not exist
/* Example of using embedded fields */
CREATE @person:id SET name.first = "Tobie", name.last = "Morgan Hitchcock" -- Creates a the person if they do not exist
UPDATE
/* Example of updating a table */
UPDATE person -- Updates all person records
UPDATE person SET age=VOID -- ... and removes the age field
UPDATE person SET age=VOID WHERE age < 18 -- ... if the condition matches
/* Example of updating a specific record */
UPDATE @person:id -- Ensures the person record exists
UPDATE @person:id CONTENT {} -- ... and erases the record data
UPDATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie' -- ... and sets name+age
UPDATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags = NULL -- ... and sets tags to NULL
UPDATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags = [] -- ... and sets tags to an empty set
UPDATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags = ['old'] -- ... and sets tags to a set with 1 element
UPDATE @person:id SET age = 28, name = 'Tobie', tags += ['new'], tags -= ['old'] -- ... and adds 'new' to tags and removes 'old' from tags
/* Example of multiple records in one statement */
UPDATE @person:one, @person:two -- Ensures both person records exist
/* Example of using embedded fields */
UPDATE @person:id SET emails = [] -- Creates a the person if they do not exist
UPDATE @person:id SET emails += {type: "work", value: "tobie@abcum.co.uk"}
UPDATE @person:id SET emails.0.value = "tobie@abcum.com"
UPDATE @person:id SET emails -= {type: "work", value: "tobie@abcum.com"}
DELETE
/* Example of deleting a table */
DELETE person -- Deletes all person records
DELETE person WHERE age < 18 -- ... if the condition matches
/* Example of deleting a specific record */
DELETE @person:id -- Deletes the person record
DELETE @person:id WHERE age < 18 -- ... if the condition matches
/* Example of multiple records in one statement */
DELETE @person:one, @person:two -- Deletes both person records
MODIFY
/* Example of modifying a record with jsondiffpatch */
MODIFY @person:id DIFF {JSON}
RELATE
-- Example of defining graph edges between records
RELATE friend FROM @person:one TO @person:two -- Define a graph edge
RELATE friend FROM @person:one TO @person:two UNIQUE -- ... or ensure only one edge of this type exists
SELECT

SELECT * FROM person WHERE "tag" ∈ tags -- tags contains "tag"
SELECT * FROM person WHERE "tag" IS IN tags -- tags contains "tag"
SELECT * FROM person WHERE tags ∌ "tag" -- tags does not contain "tag"
