SYNOPSIS
This is an Imperative Trie implementation. functional-trie is the functional version.
USAGE
const Vertex = require('imperative-trie')
// to start with, the graph is just a single vertex
const vertex = new Vertex()
// now lets add an edge to the vertex named "bob" that points to another vertex with the value "alice"
vertex.set('friend', new Vertex('alice'))
// if paths have more than one name in them they can arrays
vertex.set(['friend', 'brother'], new Vertex('bob'))
// now the graph looks like:
// [vertex]---friend--->[alice]---brother-->[bob]
// path names and vertex values can be anything
vertex.set([new Buffer('friend'), 5, true, {}, new Date()], new Vertex(['an array of some stuff']))
// edges are stored in a Map
vertex.edges // Map{}
// you can also iterate a path
let vertices = [...vertex.walkPath(['friend', 'brother'])]
// or the entire trie
vertices = [...vertex]
// delete an edge
vertex = vertex.delete('friend')
// now the vertex is empty
vertex.isEmpty // true
