php-cayley

PHP Wrapper for the Google's Cayley graph database REST interface.

Cayley is an open-source graph inspired by the graph database behind Freebase and Google's Knowledge Graph. Its goal is to be a part of the developer's toolbox where Linked Data and graph-shaped data (semantic webs, social networks, etc) in general are concerned.

The Cayley's default query language is called Gremlin based on JavaScript. php-cayley is a replica of this Gremlin Javascript API in PHP, all the methods and patterns from Gremlin are applicable to this library.

Requirements

• php >=5.5.0
• guzzlehttp/guzzle ~6.0
