Running Titan

Install server and console packages

From Titan 0.9.0-M1 Release:

The zip archives are based on the TinkerPop 3.0.0.M6 gremlin-console and gremlin-server zipfiles. A monolithic titan-all TP3 plugin comes preinstalled and activated in the zipfiles.

Download the server and console packages from the following links:

Unzip them to their dedicated directories. From now on, I'm going to refer to them as console for titan-console and server for titan-server.

Set up server and Cassandra as backend storage

All commands are executed within the server directory.

➜  server  pwd

Start Titan server

With Cassandra and Elasticsearch up and running, you are now well prepared for starting Titan up itself.

Go to server directory and run ./bin/gremlin-server.sh conf/gremlin-server-cassandra-es.yaml.

Congratulations! Titan server is up and running! You can connect to it using Gremlin Console which is the topic of the following section.

Using Gremlin Console

Go to console directory and execute ./bin/gremlin.sh shell script.

➜  console  ./bin/gremlin.sh

         \,,,/
         (o o)

gremlin>

Check the versions of the software used right from the Gremlin shell:

gremlin> Gremlin.version
==>3.0.0.M6
gremlin> Titan.version()
==>0.9.0-M1

Open connection to Titan and execute queries:

gremlin> g = TitanFactory.open('../server/conf/titan-cassandra-es.properties')
==>standardtitangraph[cassandra:[127.0.0.1]]
gremlin> g.V().count()
WARN  com.thinkaurelius.titan.graphdb.transaction.StandardTitanTx  - Query requires iterating over all vertices [()]. For better performance, use indexes
==>0

You may also connect to Titan remotely as a TinkerPop3 server using :remote and :> commands.

gremlin> :remote connect tinkerpop.server conf/remote.yaml
==>Connected - localhost/127.0.0.1:8182
gremlin> :> g.V().count()
==>0
gremlin> :> g.addVertex().property("name", "jacek")
// there might be a stacktrace showing up here...
// Pretend nothing had happened :-)
gremlin> :> g.V().count()
==>1
gremlin> :> g.V().values('name').count()
==>1
gremlin> :> g.V().values('name')
==>jacek

It helps when you don't care what implementation you're talking to provided it's a TinkerPop3 server implementation.

FIXME (The following snippet doesn't seem to work)

You can also execute a script using :> @ command:

gremlin> script = """
gremlin>          matthias = g.addVertex('name','matthias')
gremlin>          matthias.addEdge('co-creator',g.V().has('name','marko').next())
gremlin>          """
==>
         matthias = g.addVertex('name','matthias')
         matthias.addEdge('co-creator',g.V().has('name','marko').next())
gremlin> :> @script
==>e[14][12-co-creator->1]

Read Connecting via Console.

Close the remote connection to Titan with :remote close.

gremlin> :remote close
==>Removed - Gremlin Server - [localhost/127.0.0.1:8182]
