Graph Library

A library for operating on graphs.

A graph is a data structure having

{
    nodes: [ { id: <string>, parentId: <string>},...]
    links: [ { source: <string>, target: <string>, relationship: <string>},...]
}

This data structure is intended to representation a system.

The fundamental concepts or properties of a system in its environment embodied in its elements, relationships, and in the principles of its design and evolution — ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010:2011

About

What types of things do we want to perform on this graph structure.

Derive Lineage

This operation enriches each nodes with all node reachable from the node via inbound and outbound links

{
    nodes[{id:1},{id:2},{id:3}]
    links:[{source:1,target:2},{source:2,target:3},{source:3,target:1}]
}

will produce

{
    nodes[
        {id:1,ancestorsCount: 2, ancestors:{2: {id:2},3:{id:3}},descendantsCount: 2, descendants:{2: {id:2},3:{id:3}},
        ...
    links:[...]
}

Surface Links

This operation raise links between tree nodes to parent nodes

{
    nodes[{id:1},{id:2},{id:10,parentId: 1},{id:20:parentId:2}]
    links:[{source:10,target:20}]
}

will produce

{
    nodes[...]
    links:[{source:10,target:20},{source:1,target:2}]
}

The idea here is that there can be interconnections at lower levels of detail that result in logical connections at higher level of abstraction
