Description
Hi,
I work on graph database, mainly Neo4j, I'd like to quit, for several years. I'm a strong supporter of PostgreSQL for almost 20 years.
I think your idea to use PostgreSQL to support Cypher is great, but I fear that you'd miss the target for a silly issue.
One of the main advantage of Neo4J is there's an API to create node, relationships and so on by API.
Sometimes, Cypher is not the good answer in certain kind of apps and architecture, at least to create the graph. Of course, to query the graph, Cypher is great.
So my proposition is simple : **provide an API, accessible from PL/PGSQL to create nodes, relationships at least,** and one day to permit people to define ways to walk in the graph.
Many thanks for your work.
