TitanGraphTransaction defines a transactional context for a TitanGraph. Since TitanGraph is a transactional graph database, all interactions with the graph are mitigated by a TitanGraphTransaction.

All vertex and edge retrievals are channeled by a graph transaction which bundles all such retrievals, creations and deletions into one transaction. A graph transaction is analogous to a database transaction. The isolation level and ACID support are configured through the storage backend, meaning whatever level of isolation is supported by the storage backend is mirrored by a graph transaction.

A graph transaction supports:

• Creating vertices, properties and edges
• Creating types
• Index-based retrieval of vertices
• Querying edges and vertices
• Aborting and committing transaction

Method Detail

addVertex

TitanVertex addVertex(String vertexLabel)

Creates a new vertex in the graph with the vertex label named by the argument.

Specified by:

addVertex in interface org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.Graph

Parameters:

vertexLabel - the name of the vertex label to use

Returns:

a new vertex in the graph created in the context of this transaction

addVertex

TitanVertex addVertex(Object... objects)

Specified by:

addVertex in interface org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.Graph

query

TitanGraphQuery<? extends TitanGraphQuery> query()

Returns:

See Also:

query()

indexQuery

TitanIndexQuery indexQuery(String indexName,
                           String query)

Returns a TitanIndexQuery to query for vertices or edges against the specified indexing backend using the given query string. The query string is analyzed and answered by the underlying storage backend.

Note, that using indexQuery will may ignore modifications in the current transaction.

Parameters:

indexName - Name of the indexing backend to query as configured

query - Query string

Returns:

TitanIndexQuery object to query the index directly

multiQuery

@Deprecated
TitanMultiVertexQuery<? extends TitanMultiVertexQuery> multiQuery(TitanVertex... vertices)

Deprecated.

Returns:

See Also:

multiQuery(com.thinkaurelius.titan.core.TitanVertex...)

multiQuery

@Deprecated
TitanMultiVertexQuery<? extends TitanMultiVertexQuery> multiQuery(Collection<TitanVertex> vertices)

Deprecated.

Returns:

multiQuery(java.util.Collection)

close

void close()

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.Graph
