How to cascade deletes in Titan DB?

Question

I want to delete a vertex and all vertexes that point to it where the edges between them are from a set of labels - not necessarily all the incoming vertexes.

In a relational database you can configure automatic deletion of related entities using cascading deletes on foreign keys.

Is there a similar configuration expressible in Titan DB or with Gremlin?

Answer 1

There is no such feature in Titan at this time. You would have to manage such logic manually as part of your delete of the vertex:

g.v(123).in('some','labels','only').remove()
g.v(123).remove()
