Console - GREMLIN

Executes commands in the Gremlin language from the Console.

Gremlin is a graph traversal language. OrientDB supports it from the Console, API and through a Gremlin shell launched from $ORIENTDB_HOME/bin/gremlin.sh.

Syntax

GREMLIN <command>

• <command> Defines the commands you want to know.

NOTE: OrientDB parses Gremlin commands as multi-line input. It does not execute the command until you type end. Bear in mind, the end here is case-sensitive.

Examples

• Create a vertex using Gremlin:

  orientdb> gremlin
  [Started multi-line command.  Type just 'end' to finish and execute.]
  orientdb> v1 = g.addVertex();
  orientdb> end
  
  v[#9:0]
  
  Script executed in 0,100000 sec(s).
