Haha, thanks so much! `edgedb-server --help` is pretty elaborate, but yeah, we don't have an official page. What kind of info are you looking for?
152.
by 1st1 4y ago
Yes, we'll have it. We need to implement proper extension system to be able to integrate GPL-licensed extensions. On our todo.

Yes, we want to have query builders for all languages. If you love Rust and have time to contribute we'd love some help. Figuring out a great QB Rust API might take some time.

Automatically - we might have some built-in scripts in time for 3.0. You can migrate manually now by writing some sql/edgeql scripts.

I'm going to start writing some case studies soon about how various companies use EdgeDB in prod. I'm sure we'll spot some interesting schemas and patterns to share :)

It's a great one, Ivan, thank you for writing it! :)

Will be a feature of 3.0 in 6 months. We want to do it right and allow transparent integration with things like elastic, as well as allowing faceted search.

Replied on Twitter! > I see EdgeDB as primarily focused on transactional queries, whereas PRQL is very focused on analytical queries. That's true to an extent currently , but we actually envisioned EdgeQL to be a capable analytical

I also recommend looking at EdgeQL -- https://www.edgedb.com/showcase/edgeql -- a new query language aimed to eliminate some of the SQL quirks. (I'm a co-founder)

Eventually yes, but we aren't working on it right now .

EdgeDB [1] has indeed a rich GraphQL layer, but it's a very different project. While it also builds on top of Postgres, EdgeDB replaces the entire relational database front-end. EdgeDB features a SQL replacement language called EdgeQL

We don't have a doc on internal architecture, but we discussed it during our live-streamed launch event today: [1] > And tracing what is happening from beginning of query to result? EdgeDB exposes a Prometheus endpoint with a bunch

Yes, spot on.

An official Rust client is in the works.

Thanks. Please report back your experience!

> Instead, you should just release the core version so others will build an open ecosystem around your mainline product. To be clear EdgeDB is the core version, albeit a large core. We have many ideas about value-adds. But the goal for o

Regarding extensions: we plan to wrap the most popular ones like PostGIS to give them idiomatic EdgeQL flavor. We need to do a bit of work to make that the right way. Sum types can be modeled with inheritance. You can create an abstract bas

We know a thing or two about concurrency and Python. Take a look at our blog post [1] touching on what we do and how. [1] https://www.edgedb.com/blog/building-a-production-database-i...

Yeah, true. FWIW with EdgeQL you can also introspect all aspects of your schema.

It was taken from Elvis' talk. Here's the video explaining how we get to this query and why: https://youtu.be/WRZ3o-NsU_4?t=1892
177.
by 1st1 5y ago
Yep, we have plans for that. We are exploring if it would be feasible to make it possible to plug-in external engines like elastic and make that integration totally automatic, enabled with a simple annotation in the schema.
178.
by 1st1 5y ago
Yes, it can be used with rds or aurora, we have guides in the docs.

GraphQL is great for what it was designed for. It just was never designed to be a querying language with analytical capabilities, like EdgeQL.

> The language seems to help on the number of round-trips so that's good. Yep, you got it! :)
