> I have a GraphQuery that I implemented a long time back that allows a user to specify a "startQuery" to identify which documents to start graph traversal from. It then gathers up the edge ids for those documents , optionally applies an additional filter. The query is then re-executed continually until no new edge ids are identified. I am currently hosting this code up at https://github.com/kwatters/solrgraph and I would like to work with the community to get some feedback and ultimately get it committed back in as a lucene query.
> Here's a bit more of a description of the parameters for the query / graph traversal:
> q - the initial start query that identifies the universe of documents to start traversal from.
> fromField - the field name that contains the node id
> toField - the name of the field that contains the edge id(s).
> traversalFilter - this is an additional query that can be supplied to limit the scope of graph traversal to just the edges that satisfy the traversalFilter query.
> maxDepth - integer specifying how deep the breadth first search should go.
> returnStartNodes - boolean to determine if the documents that matched the original "q" should be returned as part of the graph.
> onlyLeafNodes - boolean that filters the graph query to only return documents/nodes that have no edges.
> We identify a set of documents with "q" as any arbitrary lucene query. It will collect the values in the fromField, create an OR query with those values , optionally apply an additional constraint from the "traversalFilter" and walk the result set until no new edges are detected. Traversal can also be stopped at N hops away as defined with the maxDepth. This is a BFS (Breadth First Search) algorithm. Cycle detection is done by not revisiting the same document for edge extraction.
> This query operator does not keep track of how you arrived at the document, but only that the traversal did arrive at the document.
