Alpha release 0.2.0
Note: AgensGraph-Extension was renamed to Apache AGE based on Apache requirements since we donated this project to Apache Software Foundation.
Apache AGE is an extension of PostgreSQL that provides an implemtation of the openCypher query language.
This project is currently in alpha stage.
The initial goal is as follows.
CREATE clause with a vertexMATCH clause with a vertexApache AGE is an extension of PostgreSQL, its build system is based on Postgres' Extension Building Infrastructure. Therefore, pg_config for the PostgreSQL installation is used to build it.
Apache AGE 0.2.0 supports PostgreSQL 11.
The build process will attempt to use the first path in the PATH environment variable when installing AGE. If the pg_config path if located there, run the following command in the source code directory of Apache AGE to build and install the extension.
$ make install
If the path to your Postgres installation is not in the PATH variable, add the path in the arguements:
$ make PG_CONFIG=/path/to/postgres/bin/pg_config install
Since Apache AGE will be installed in the directory of the PostgreSQL installation, proper permissions on the directory are required.
Run the following statements in psql to create and load age in PostgreSQL.
=# CREATE EXTENSION age; -- run this statement only once CREATE EXTENSION =# LOAD 'age'; LOAD =# SET search_path = ag_catalog, "$user", public; SET
There are multiple ways you can contribute to the project.And help is always welcome! All details can be found on the contributing page. Keep reading for a quick overview!
RoadmapApacheCommunityDocumentationDownload AGE Contribution Instructions AGE is a multi-model database that enables graph and relational models built on PostgreSQL.
AGE mainly offers a multimodel database. Eliminates the migration efforts while having relational and graph models. It is based on the powerful PostgreSQL RDBMS, it is very robust and fully-featured. It optimized for handling complex connected graph data and provides plenty of powerful database features. leverages the rich eco-systems of PostgreSQL and can be extended with many outstanding external modules.
How to contribute There are multiple ways you can contribute to the project.And help is always welcome! All details can be found on the contributing page. Keep reading for a quick overview!
If you are interested in the project and looking for ways to help, consult the list of tasks in JIRA, or ask the mailing list.
A great way to contribute to AGE is to help answer user questions on the mailing list or on StackOverflow. There are always many new AGE users; taking a few minutes to help answer a question is a very valuable community service.
Contributors should subscribe to this list and follow it in order to keep up to date on what’s happening in AGE. Answering questions is an excellent and visible way to help the community, which also demonstrates your expertise.
See the Mailing Lists guide for guidelines about how to effectively participate in discussions on the mailing list, as well as forums like StackOverflow.
Changes to AGE source code are proposed, reviewed and committed via Github pull requests (described in Insturction Link). Anyone can view and comment on active changes here. Reviewing others’ changes is a good way to learn how the change process works and gain exposure to activity in various parts of the code. You can help by reviewing the changes and asking questions or pointing out issues – as simple as typos or small issues of style.
To propose a change to release documentation (that is, docs that appear under https://AGE.apache.org/instruction/), edit the Markdown source files in AGE’s docs/ directory on GitHub, whose README file shows how to build the documentation locally to test your changes. The process to propose a doc change is otherwise the same as the process for proposing code changes below.
Bug reports are accompanied by a proposed code change to fix the bug. This isn’t always possible, as those who discover a bug may not have the experience to fix it. A bug may be reported by creating a JIRA but without creating a pull request.
Bug reports are only useful however if they include enough information to understand, isolate and ideally reproduce the bug. Simply encountering an error does not mean a bug should be reported; as below, search JIRA and search and inquire on the AGE user / dev mailing lists first. Unreproducible bugs, or simple error reports, may be closed.
Most contributors are able to directly resolve JIRAs. Use judgment in determining whether you are quite confident the issue should be resolved, although changes can be easily undone.

When new contributors want to join the project, they may have a particular change or bug in mind. If you are interested in the project and looking for ways to help, consult the list of tasks in JIRA, or ask the user@age.apache.org mailing list. Code Reviews can take hours or days of a committer’s time. Everyone benefits if contributors focus on changes that are useful, clear, easy to evaluate, and already pass basic checks.
Before proceeding, contributors should evaluate if the proposed change is likely to be relevant, new and actionable:
Is it clear that code must change? Proposing a JIRA and pull request is appropriate only when a clear problem or change has been identified.
If simply having trouble using AGE, use the mailing lists first, rather than creating a JIRA ticket or proposing a change.
When in doubt, email user@age.apache.org first about the possible change Search the user@age.apache.org and dev@age.apache.org mailing list Archive Link Here for related discussions.

Git Merge Strategy for Apache AGE Detailed below is our workflow for adding patches that have passed the approval process to the master branch
Single Commit for a Single Task In this case, the commit will be merged into the master branch with the following process.
Change the current working branch to the local master branch by running the following command.
$ git checkout master
Make the local master branch up-to-date by running the following command (or any other commands that result the same.)
$ git pull
Change the current working branch to the local task branch that the commit resides in by running the following command.
$ git checkout
Rebase the local task branch by running the following command.
$ git rebase master
Resolve any conflicts that occur during rebase.
Change the current working branch to the local master branch by running the following command.
$ git checkout master
Merge the local task branch into the local master branch by running the following command.
$ git merge
Keeping Commit History Sometimes, having logically separated multiple commits for a single task helps developers to grasp the logical process of the work that had been done for the task. If the commits are merged with fast-forward strategy, the commits will not be grouped together. Therefore, to group the commits, create an explicit merge commit.
In this case, the commits will be merged into the master branch with the same process above except the last step(step 7).
For the last step, the local task branch will be merged into the local master branch with an explicit merge commit by running the following command. If you omit --no-ff option, the command will do fast-forward merge instead.
$ git merge --no-ff
The above process will result, for example, the following commit history. (This is captured from bitnine/agensgraph-ext.) There is an explicit merge commit, 69f3b32. Each explicit merge commit groups related commits.
Note: There is no commit between an explicit merge commit and the parent commit, which is on the master branch, of the explicit merge commit. This is done by doing rebase before merge.

Bug reports are only useful however if they include enough information to understand, isolate and reproduce the bug. Simply encountering an error does not mean a bug should be reported. A bug logged in JIRA that cannot be reproduced will be closed.
The more context the reporter can give about a bug, the better, such as: how the bug was introduced, by which commit, etc. It assists the committers in the decision process on how far the bug fix should be backported, when the pull request is merged. The pull request to fix the bug should narrow down the problem to the root cause.
Ideally, bug reports are accompanied by a proposed code change to fix the bug. This isn’t always possible, as those who discover a bug may not have the experience to fix it. A bug may be reported by creating a JIRA ticket without creating a pull request.
Data correctness/data loss bugs are very serious. Make sure the corresponding bug report JIRA ticket is labeled as correctness or data-loss. Please send an email to dev@age.apache.org after submitting the bug report, to quickly draw attention to the issue.
Performance issues are classified as bugs. The pull request to fix a performance bug must provide a benchmark to prove the problem is indeed fixed.
Inevitably some issues are duplicates, become obsolete, can not be reproduced, could benefit from more detail, etc. It’s useful to help identify these issues and resolve them, either by advancing the discussion or resolving the JIRA ticket. Most contributors are able to directly resolve JIRAs. Use judgment in determining whether you are confident the issue should be resolved. If in doubt, just leave a comment on the JIRA ticket.
When resolving JIRA tickets, please observe the following conventions:
For a full list of coding style guidelines, please refer to the style setup in the clang-format.5 in the AGE git repository.
General Rules NOTE: In some environments, code block does not properly show indentation. To see the correct indentation, copy and paste the code to a text editor.
Use 4 spaces per indentation level. (no tab character) * You can see the same indentation in all environments.
For switch statement, see below.
switch (suffix) {
case 'G':
case 'g':
mem <<= 30;
break;
case 'M':
case 'm':
mem <<= 20;
break;
case 'K':
case 'k':
mem <<= 10;
// fall through
default:
break;
}
The line length limit is 79 columns, except for strings longer than 79 characters.
All braces are on their own line solely.
int function(int x)
{
body of function
}
struct s
{
int a;
int b;
};
if (x is true)
{
we do a
}
else if (y is true)
{
we do b
}
else
{
we do c
we do d
}
If all the bodies of if/else statement contain a singe line, omit braces. See below.
if (x is true)
we do a
if (y is true)
we do b
else
we do c
One exception is do statement.See below.
do
{
body of do-loop
} while (condition);
Use the underscore name convention for all variables, functions, structs, enums and define macros.
Use typedef only for struct and enum. It must not be used for pointer types.
For multi-line comments, use C style multi-line comments. For single-line comments, use C++ style single-line comments. See below.
/*
* This function
* does x
*/
void f(void)
{
// This is to check ...
if (y is true)
we do b
/*
* We need to do this here
* because of ...
*/
for (;;)
}
Don't align bodies of macros.
If names are changed or new entries are added, it may produces unnecessary diffs and this makes it harder for you to find lines that are actually modified.
// do this #define Anum_ag_graph_name 1 #define Anum_ag_graph_namespace 2 // not this #define Anum_ag_graph_name 1 #define Anum_ag_graph_namespace 2
When you write a macro that spans multiple lines, don't align \ character.
If bodies of macros are modified, it may produces unnecessary diffs and this makes
it harder for you to find lines that are actually modified.
// do this
#define f() \
do \
{ \
run(); \
} while (0)
// not this
#define f() \
do \
{ \
run(); \
} while (0)
For newlines, only \n is allowed, not \r\n and \r.
If a pointer variable (including List *) is used as a condition, which means that it is evaluated as true/false value, use it AS-IS. Do not perform explicit comparison with NULL (or NIL). For negation, put ! before it.
An error message that is passed to errmsg() starts with a lower case letter.
An error detail/hint message that is passed to errdetail()/errhint() starts with an upper case letter.
