HTTP Methods

This protocol uses the four methods of the HTTP protocol:

  • GET, to retrieve values from the database. It's idempotent that means no changes to the database happen. Remember that in IE6 the URL can be maximum of 2,083 characters. Other browsers supports major length, but if you want to stay compatible with all limit to 2,083 characters
  • POST, to insert values into the database
  • PUT, to change values into the database
  • DELETE, to delete values from the database

When using POST and PUT the following are important when preparing the contents of the post message:

  • Always have the content type set to “application/json” or "application/xml"
  • Where data or data structure is involved the content is in JSON format
  • For OrientDB SQL or Gremlin the content itself is just text

Headers

All the requests must have these 2 headers:

'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip,deflate'
'Content-Length': <content-length>
`

Where the <content-length> is the length of the request's body.

Syntax

The REST API is very flexible, with the following features:

  • Data returned is in JSON format
  • JSONP callback is supported
  • Support for http and https connections
  • The API itself is case insensitive
  • API can just be used as a wrapper to retrieve (and control) data through requests written in OrientDB SQL or Gremlin
  • You can avoid using # for RecordIDs in URLs, if you prefer. Just drop the # from the URL and it will still work

The REST syntax used is the same for all the four HTTP methods:

Syntax: http://<server>:<port>/<command>/[<database>/<arguments>]

Results are always in JSON format. Support for 'document' object types is through the use of the attribute @type : 'd'. This also applies when using inner document objects. Example:

{
  "@type"  : "d",
  "Name"   : "Test",
  "Data"   : { "@type": "d",
               "value": 0 },
  "@class" : "SimpleEntity"
}

JSONP is also supported by adding a callback parameter to the request (containing the callback function name).

Syntax: http://<server>:<port>/<command>/[<database>/<arguments>]?callback=<callbackFunctionName>

Commands are divided in two main categories:

  • Server commands, such as to know server statistics and to create a new database
  • Database commands, all the commands against a database

Authentication and security

All the commands (but the Disconnect need a valid authentication before to get executed. The OrientDB Server checks if the Authorization HTTP header is present, otherwise answers with a request of authentication (HTTP error code: 401).

The HTTP client (or the Internet Browser) must send user and password using the HTTP Base authentication. Password is encoded using Base64 algorithm. Please note that if you want to encrypt the password using a safe mode take in consideration to use SSL connections.

Server commands use the realm "OrientDB Server", while the database commands use a realm per database in this form: "OrientDB db-<database>", where <database> is the database name. In this way the Browser/HTTP client can reuse user and password inserted multiple times until the session expires or the "Disconnect" is called.

On first call (or when the session is expired and a new authentication is required), OrientDB returns the OSESSIONID parameter in response's HTTP header. On further calls the client should pass this OSESSIONID header in the requests and OrientDB will skip the authentication because a session is alive. By default sessions expire after 300 seconds (5 minutes), but you can change this configuration by setting the global setting: network.http.sessionExpireTimeout

JSON data type handling and Schema-less mode

Since OrientDB supports also schema-less/hybrid modes how to manage types? JSON doesn't support all the types OrientDB has, so how can I pass the right type when it's not defined in the schema?

The answer is using the special field "@fieldTypes" as string containing all the field types separated by comma. Example:

{ "@class":"Account", "date": 1350426789, "amount": 100.34,
  "@fieldTypes": "date=t,amount=c" }

The supported special types are:

  • 'f' for float
  • 'c' for decimal
  • 'l' for long
  • 'd' for double
  • 'b' for byte and binary
  • 'a' for date
  • 't' for datetime
  • 's' for short
  • 'e' for Set, because arrays and List are serialized as arrays like [3,4,5]
  • 'x' for links
  • 'n' for linksets
  • 'z' for linklist
  • 'm' for linkmap
  • 'g' for linkbag

Keep-Alive

Attention: OrientDB HTTP API utilizes Keep-Alive feature for better performance: the TCP/IP socket is kept open avoiding the creation of a new one for each command. If you need to re-authenticate, open a new connection avoiding to reuse the already open one. To force closing put "Connection: close" in the request header.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/class/<database>/<class-name>

HTTP POST request: http://localhost:2480/class/demo/Address2 HTTP response: 9

Property

POST - Property

Create one or more properties into a given class. Returns the number of properties of the class.

Single property creation

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/property/<database>/<class-name>/<property-name>/[<property-type>]

Creates a property named <property-name> in <class-name>. If <property-type> is not specified the property will be created as STRING.

Multiple property creation

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/property/<database>/<class-name>/

Requires a JSON document post request content:

{
  "fieldName": {
      "propertyType": "<property-type>"
  },
  "fieldName": {
      "propertyType": "LINK",
      "linkedClass": "<linked-class>"

HTTP response: 6

Cluster

GET - Cluster

Where the primary usage is a document db, or where the developer wants to optimise retrieval using the clustering of the database, use the CLUSTER command to browse the records of the requested cluster.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/cluster/<database>/<cluster-name>/

Where <limit> is optional and tells the maximum of records to load. Default is 20.

Example

HTTP GET request: http://localhost:2480/cluster/demo/Address

HTTP response:

{ "schema": {
    "id": 5,
    "name": "Address"
  },
  "result": [{
      "_id": "11:0",
      "_ver": 0,
      "@class": "Address",
      "type": "Residence",
      "street": "Piazza Navona, 1",
      "city": "12:0"
    }
...

Command

POST - Command

Execute a command against the database. Returns the records affected or the list of records for queries. Command executed via POST can be non-idempotent (look at Query).

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/command/<database>/<language>[/<command-text>[/limit[/<fetchPlan>]]] content: <command-text>

Where:

  • <language> is the name of the language between those supported. OrientDB distribution comes with "sql" and GraphDB distribution has both "sql" and "gremlin"
  • command-text is the text containing the command to execute
  • limit is the maximum number of record to return. Optional, default is 20
  • fetchPlan is the fetching strategy to use. For more information look at Fetching Strategies. Optional, default is *:1 (1 depth level only)

The command-text can appear in either the URL or the content of the POST transmission.

Where the command-text is included in the URL, it must be encoded as per normal URL encoding.

Read the SQL section or the Gremlin introduction for the type of commands.

Example

HTTP POST request: http://localhost:2480/command/demo/sql content: update Profile set online = false

HTTP response: 10

Or the same:

HTTP POST request: http://localhost:2480/command/demo/sql/update Profile set online = false

HTTP response: 10

Batch

POST - Batch

Executes a batch of operations in a single call. This is useful to reduce network latency issuing multiple commands as multiple requests. Batch command supports transactions as well.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/batch/<database>

Content: { "transaction" : , "operations" : [ { "type" : "" }* ] }

Returns: Number of operations executed.

Where: type can be:

  • 'c' for create, 'record' field is expected.
  • 'u' for update, 'record' field is expected.
  • 'd' for delete. The '@rid' field only is needed.
  • 'cmd' for commands (Since v1.6). The expected fields are:
    • 'language', between those supported (sql, gremlin, script, etc.)
    • 'command' as the text of the command to execute
  • 'script' for scripts (Since v1.6). The expected fields are:
    • 'language', between the language installed in the JVM. Javascript is the default one, but you can also use SQL (see below)
    • 'script' as the text of the script to execute

Example

{ "transaction" : true,
  "operations" : [
    { "type" : "u",
      "record" : {
        "@rid" : "#14:122",
        "name" : "Luca",
        "vehicle" : "Car"
      }
    }, {
      "type" : "d",
      "record" : {
        "@rid" : "#14:100"
      }
    }, {
      "type" : "c",
      "record" : {
        "@class" : "City",
        "name" : "Venice"
      }
    }, {
      "type" : "cmd",
      "language" : "sql",
      "command" : "create edge Friend from #10:33 to #11:33"
    }, {
      "type" : "script",
      "language" : "javascript",
      "script" : "orient.getGraph().createVertex('class:Account')"
    }
  ]
}

SQL batch

{ "transaction" : true,
  "operations" : [
    {
      "type" : "script",
      "language" : "sql",
      "script" : [ "let account = create vertex Account set name = 'Luke'",
                   "let city =select from City where name = 'London'",
                   "create edge Lives from $account to $city retry 100" ]
    }
  ]
}

Function

POST and GET - Function

Executes a server-side function against the database. Returns the result of the function that can be a string or a JSON containing the document(s) returned.

The difference between GET and POST method calls are if the function has been declared as idempotent. In this case can be called also by GET, otherwise only POST is accepted.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/function/<database>/<name>[/<argument>*]<server>

Where

  • <name> is the name of the function
  • <argument>, optional, are the arguments to pass to the function. They are passed by position.

Creation of functions, when not using the Java API, can be done through the Studio in either Orient DB SQL or Java – see the OrientDB Functions page.

Example

HTTP POST request: http://localhost:2480/function/demo/sum/3/5

HTTP response: 8.0

Database

GET - Database

}

_Fail::

{
  "responseText": "Error message"
}

List Databases

GET - List Databases

Query

GET - Query

Execute a query against the database. Query means only idempotent commands like SQL SELECT and TRAVERSE. Idempotent means the command is read-only and can't change the database. Remember that in IE6 the URL can be maximum of 2,083 characters. Other browsers supports major length, but if you want to stay compatible with all limit to 2,083 characters.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/query/<database>/<language>/<query-text>[/<limit>][/<fetchPlan>]

Where:

  • <language> is the name of the language between those supported. OrientDB distribution comes with "sql" only. Gremlin language cannot be executed with query because it cannot guarantee to be idempotent. To execute Gremlin use command instead.
  • query-text is the text containing the query to execute
  • limit is the maximum number of record to return. Optional, default is 20
  • fetchPlan is the fetching strategy to use. For more information look at Fetching Strategies. Optional, default is *:1 (1 depth level only)

Other key points:

  • To use commands that change the database (non-idempotent), see the POST – Command section
  • The command-text included in the URL must be encoded as per a normal URL
  • See the SQL section for the type of queries that can be sent

Example

HTTP GET request: http://localhost:2480/query/demo/sql/select from Profile

HTTP response:

{ "result": [
{
  "_id": "-3:1",
  "_ver": 0,
  "@class": "Address",
  "type": "Residence",
  "street": "Piazza di Spagna",
  "city": "-4:0"
},
{
  "_id": "-3:2",
  "_ver": 0,
  "@class": "Address",
  "type": "Residence",
  "street": "test",
  "city": "-4:1"
}] }

The same query with the limit to maximum 20 results using the fetch plan *:-1 that means load all recursively:

HTTP GET request: http://localhost:2480/query/demo/sql/select from Profile/20/*:-1

Server

GET - Server

Retrieve information about the connected OrientDB Server. Requires additional authentication to the server.

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/server

Example

HTTP GET request: http://localhost:2480/server HTTP response:

{
  "connections": [{
    "id": "4",
    "id": "4",
    "remoteAddress": "0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1:52504",
    "db": "-",
    "user": "-",
    "protocol": "HTTP-DB",
    "totalRequests": "1",
    "commandInfo": "Server status",
    "commandDetail": "-",
    "lastCommandOn": "2010-05-26 05:08:58",
    "lastCommandInfo": "-",
    "lastCommandDetail": "-",
    "lastExecutionTime": "0",
    "totalWorkingTime": "0",
...

Connection

POST - Connection

Syntax: http://<server>:[<port>]/connection/<command>/<id>

Where:

  • command can be:
    • kill to kill a connection
    • interrupt to interrupt the operation (if possible)
  • id, as the connection id. To know all the connections use GET /connections/[<db>]

You've to execute this command authenticated in the OrientDB Server realm (no database realm), so get the root password from config/orientdb-server-config.xml file (last section).
