UML diagram for example edge rule

ExampleEquivalent Example
Example Edge Rule 
{
“from”: “tenant”,
“to”: “vserver”,
“label”: “owns”,
“direction”: “OUT”,
“multiplicity”: “One2Many”,
“contains-other-v”: “${direction}”,
“delete-other-v”: “NONE”,
“SVC-INFRA”: “!${direction}”,
“prevent-delete”: “${direction}”
}
Equivalent Edge Rule 
{
“from”: “vserver”,
“to”: “tenant”,
“label”: “owns”,
“direction”: “IN”,
“multiplicity”: “One2Many”,
“contains-other-v”: “${direction}”,
“delete-other-v”: “NONE”,
“SVC-INFRA”: “!${direction}”,
“prevent-delete”: “${direction}”
}
How to read in/out/direction 
How to read "from"/"to" and "direction":
- the "in" node is "vserver"
- the "out" node is "tenant"
How to read the label 
How to read the "label":
- ("out" node) "label" ("in" node)


i.e. tenant "owns" vserver
How to read multiplicity 
How to read "multiplicity" of "One2Many":
- ("in" node) cardinality is "one"
- ("out" node) cardinality is "many"


i.e.
Each "tenant" has one "vserver"
Each "vserver" has many "tenants"
How to read contains-other-v 
How to read "contains-other-v":
- traversal of ("out" node) includes data for ("in" node)


i.e. traversal of "tenant" includes data for "vserver"
How to read delete-other-v 
How to read "delete-other-v":
- delete of ("out" node) includes does nothing to ("in" node)


i.e. delete of "tenant" includes does nothing to "vserver"
How to read SVC-INFRA
How to read "SVC-INFRA":
- ?
How to read prevent-delete 
How to read "prevent-delete":
- delete of ("out" node) is prevented when related to ("in" node)


i.e. delete of "tenant" is prevented when related to "vserver"


General Applicability

  • EdgeRules only apply to "relationship-list" relations in the schema, since the referenced object could be anything
  • EdgeRules do no apply to sub-component relations in the schema, since this is implicit and hard-coded behaviour

Note that the "from|to" pair is normalised in the code according to alphabetical order, so that "cousin pairs" with the "to|from" ordering in the EdgeRule are also grouped together, e.g.

  • from "l-interface" to "logical-link" → "l-interface|logical-link"
  • from "logical-link" to "l-interface" → "l-interface|logical-link"

Also note that the hyphens "-" are removed from the names before comparison, so the following would be equivalent:

  • l-interface
  • linter-face

direction
  • IN
  • OUT
  • NONE (default value used when Tinkerpop Direction is null)
  • BOTH (default value used when string is unrecognised)

Based on and extended from https://tinkerpop.apache.org/javadocs/3.3.2/core/org/apache/tinkerpop/gremlin/structure/Direction.html

Comparison is case-sensitive

multiplicity
  • Many2Many
  • One2Many
  • One2One
  • Many2One (default value used when string is unrecognised)
Comparison ignores case
contains-other-v
  • IN
  • OUT
  • BOTH
  • NONE
  • ${direction}
  • !${direction}

This is an "edge property" that applies for specific traversal directions.

Comparison is case-sensitive

Note that "opposite" means:

  • IN → OUT
  • OUT → IN
  • BOTH → BOTH
  • NONE → BOTH

Questions

  1. Is there a way to find/remove the unused/redundant EdgeRules from the json file?
