Is it possible to search a vertex with a property value equal to id()

[Akhila Hegde]

Hi

Is there a way in gremlin with Neptune DB to search a vertex with a value that is same as a property value of another vertex.

g.V('1234').has('property1', 'value1').V('value1').elementMap()

the graph has a vertex with id 1234. It has a property with key: property1 and value: value1

I want to traverse to another vertex with id() = value1, in the next step.

Is there a way to do it?

Kind regards,

Akhila

In cases like this, the where...by syntax comes in handy. If the Vertex with an ID of '3' has a property called 'target' which has a value of '8', we can do:

g.V('3').as('a').
  out().
  where(eq('a')).
    by(id).
    by('target')

It's possible that one day the `has` step will be expanded to work with a traversal instead of just basic predicates, but until then, using the `where...by` construct is probably the easiest way to go.
