Drivine is a graph database client for Node.js and TypeScript. It was created with the following design goals:

  • Support multiple graph databases (simultaneously, if you wish). Currently AgensGraph and Neo4j (or other BOLT compatible graph DBs).
  • Scale to hundreds and thousands of transactions per second, without compromising architectural integrity.

With regards to the second point on scaleability, let's break that down into component facets.

Features

  • Facilitates the use of well understood object-oriented and functional programming patterns.
  • Supports implementation of code that adheres to a single responsibility principle (SRP). NestJS will be optional, but is recommended.
  • Takes care of infrastructure concerns, so that you can focus on making the most of your data.
  • Removes boiler plate code, especially the tedious and error-prone kind.
  • Supports streaming, without back-pressure. Large amounts of data can be managed in a timely and memory efficient manner.
  • Light-weight use-case specific object graph mapping (OGM). Drivine is NOT an OGM in the traditinoal sense. The results are then mapped to/from a use-case specific model object.

Quick Start

Follow the Quick Start section in our User Guide or clone the sample app and use it as a starter template.

Start creating repositories like the one below.

@Injectable()
export class RouteRepository {
    constructor(
        @InjectPersistenceManager() readonly persistenceManager: PersistenceManager,
        @InjectCypher('@/traffic/routesBetween') readonly routesBetween: CypherStatement) {
    }

    @Transactional() // Has default Propagation.REQUIRED - partipicate in a current txn, or start one.
    public async findFastestBetween(start: string, destination: string): Promise<Route> {
        return this.persistenceManager.getOne(
            new QuerySpecification<Route>()
                .withStatement(this.routesBetween)
                .bind([start, destination])
                .limit(1)
                .transform(Route)
        );
    }
}

Example Applications

If you use Drivine and your code is public, feel free to make PR and add yourself to the list.

Quick Start Template

Clone the official sample app and start hacking.

Repository: github.com/liberation-data/drivine-inspiration

This sample is a basic starter template, with some tutorials. It has some endpoints for traffic routing, movies/films and other typical use-cases. Rather than start from scratch, choose the one that closely matches yours, and modify.

SlackMap

New version of slackmap.com is full rewrite with technology update. The OrientDB was replaced with Neo4j and we choose Drivine as the way to work with the database.

Check out how Drivine supports Neo4j in Full Stack JavaScript App using Angular + Nest + Nx Workspace Monorepo.

Repository: github.com/SlackMap/slackmap

  • master branch - not released yet
  • develop branch - has all the current work
