}

Backend trait defining the interface for graph database backends.

Each trait method delegates to backend-specific primitives while ensuring deterministic behavior and a single integration surface for consumers.

Required Methods

fn insert_node(&self, node: NodeSpec) -> Result<i64, SqliteGraphError>

fn get_node(&self, id: i64) -> Result<GraphEntity, SqliteGraphError>

fn insert_edge(&self, edge: EdgeSpec) -> Result<i64, SqliteGraphError>

fn neighbors( &self, node: i64, query: NeighborQuery, ) -> Result<Vec<i64>, SqliteGraphError>

fn bfs(&self, start: i64, depth: u32) -> Result<Vec<i64>, SqliteGraphError>

fn shortest_path( &self, start: i64, end: i64, ) -> Result<Option<Vec<i64>>, SqliteGraphError>

fn node_degree(&self, node: i64) -> Result<(usize, usize), SqliteGraphError>

fn k_hop( &self, start: i64, depth: u32, direction: BackendDirection, ) -> Result<Vec<i64>, SqliteGraphError>

fn k_hop_filtered( &self, start: i64, depth: u32, direction: BackendDirection, allowed_edge_types: &[&str], ) -> Result<Vec<i64>, SqliteGraphError>

fn chain_query( &self, start: i64, chain: &[ChainStep], ) -> Result<Vec<i64>, SqliteGraphError>

fn pattern_search( &self, start: i64, pattern: &PatternQuery, ) -> Result<Vec<PatternMatch>, SqliteGraphError>

fn checkpoint(&self) -> Result<(), SqliteGraphError>

Trigger WAL checkpoint for backends that support write-ahead logging

For Native backend with WAL: flushes WAL to graph file For SQLite backend: executes PRAGMA wal_checkpoint(TRUNCATE) For backends without WAL: returns Ok(()) as no-op

fn snapshot_export( &self, export_dir: &Path, ) -> Result<SnapshotMetadata, SqliteGraphError>

Export database snapshot to the specified directory

Creates a consistent snapshot of the current database state. For Native backend: uses V2 snapshot format For SQLite backend: uses JSON dump format

Arguments

• export_dir - Directory path where snapshot will be written

Returns

Snapshot metadata including file paths and size information

fn snapshot_import( &self, import_dir: &Path, ) -> Result<ImportMetadata, SqliteGraphError>

Import database snapshot from the specified directory

Restores database state from a previously created snapshot. For Native backend: loads V2 snapshot format For SQLite backend: loads JSON dump format

Arguments

• import_dir - Directory path containing snapshot files

Returns

Import metadata including number of records imported
