Description

This is a Nim binding for the Kuzu graph database library.

Kuzu is an embedded graph database built for query speed and scalability. It is optimized for handling complex join-heavy analytical workloads on very large graphs, with the following core feature set:

  • Property Graph data model and Cypher query language
  • Embedded (in-process) integration with applications
  • Columnar disk-based storage
  • Columnar, compressed sparse row-based (CSR) adjacency list/join indices
  • Vectorized and factorized query processor
  • Novel and very fast join algorithms
  • Multi-core query parallelism
  • Serializable ACID transactions

For more information about Kuzu itself, see its documentation.

Prerequisites

  • A functioning Nim >= 2 installation
  • KuzuDB to be locally installed!

Installation

$ nimble install kuzu

The current version of this library is built for Kuzu v0.11.3, which sadly seems may have been the final release of kuzudb. :(

Usage

See the Usage documentation.

You can also find a bunch of working examples in the tests.

Contributing

You can check out the current development source via Git/Jujutsu at its home repo, or the project mirror.

After checking out the source, uncomment the development dependencies from the kuzu.nimble file, and run:

$ nimble setup

This will install dependencies, and do any other necessary setup for development.

Authors

A note of thanks to @mantielero on Github, who has a Kuzu binding for an early KuzuDB (0.4.x) that I found after starting this project.
