The Agnesoft Graph Database (aka _agdb_) is persistent, optionally memory mapped graph database with native object 'no-text' queries. It can be used as a main persistent storage, data analytics platform as well as fast in-memory cache. Its typed schema-less data store allows for flexible and seamless data updates with no downtime or costly migrations. All queries are constructed via a builder pattern or directly as objects with no special language or text parsing.

```
cargo add agdb
```

Basic usage demonstrating creating a database, inserting graph elements with data and querying them back with select and search. The function using this code must handle `agdb::DbError` and [`agdb::QueryError`](https://agdb.agnesoft.com/docs/references/queries#queryerror) error types for operator `?` to work:

```rs
use agdb::{Db, DbId, QueryBuilder, UserValue, DbUserValue, Comparison::Equal};

let mut db = Db::new("db_file.agdb")?;

db.exec_mut(QueryBuilder::insert().nodes().aliases("users").query())?;

#[derive(Debug, UserValue)]
struct User { db_id: Option<DbId>, name: String, }
let users = vec![User { db_id: None, name: "Alice".to_string(), },
                 User { db_id: None, name: "Bob".to_string(), },
                 User { db_id: None, name: "John".to_string(), }];

let users_ids = db.exec_mut(QueryBuilder::insert().nodes().values(&users).query())?;

db.exec_mut(
    QueryBuilder::insert()
        .edges()
        .from("users")
        .to(&users_ids)
        .query(),
)?;
```

This code creates a database called `user_db.agdb` with a simple graph of 4 nodes. The first node is aliased `users` and 3 user nodes for Alice, Bob and John are then connected with edges to the `users` node. The arbitrary `name` property is attached to the user nodes. Rather than inserting values directly with keys (which is also possible) we use our own type and derive from `agdb::UserValue` to allow it to be used with the database.

You can select the graph elements (both nodes & edges) with their ids to get them back with their associated data (key-value properties). Lets select our users and convert the result into the list (notice we select only values relevant to our `User` type with passing `User::db_keys()`):

```rs
let users: Vec<User> = db
    .exec(
        QueryBuilder::select()
            .values(User::db_keys())
            .ids(&users_ids)
            .query(),
    )?
    .try_into()?;

println!("{:?}", users);
// [User { db_id: Some(DbId(2)), username: "Alice" },
//  User { db_id: Some(DbId(3)), username: "Bob" },
//  User { db_id: Some(DbId(4)), username: "John" }]
```

You can also search through the graph to get back only certain elements based on conditions. For example:

```rs
let user: User = db
    .exec(
        QueryBuilder::select()
            .elements::<User>()
            .search()
            .from("users")
            .where_()
            .key("name")
            .value(Equal("Bob".into()))
            .query(),
    )?
    .try_into()?;

println!("{:?}", user);
// User { db_id: Some(DbId(3)), username: "Bob" }
```
