Nebula Graph v3.1.0 has just been released

[jamieliu1023]

I am thrilled to announce that Nebula Graph v3.1.0 has just been released, with a bunch of enhancements and bug fixes. Below are the details:

Enhancements

• Patterns can now be used in WHERE statements. For example: MATCH (v:player) WHERE (v)-[:like]->() RETURN v. #3997
• CLEAR SPACE can be used to clear graph space and index data, but the graph space schema and index names are reserved. #3989
• The vertex alias can be repeated in match patterns, like MATCH (v)-->(v). #3929
• Optimized SUBGRAPH and FIND PATH for better performance. #3871 #4095
• Optimized query paths to reduce redundant paths and time complexity. #4126
• Optimized the method to get properties for better performance of MATCH statements. #3750
• Optimized GO and YIELD clauses to avoid extracting redundant properties. #3974
• Support for filter and limit pushdown when getting properties. #3844 #3839
• Support for aggregation pushdown in LOOKUP statements. #3504
• maxHop is optional in MATCH variable-length paths. #3881
• Graph spaces are physically deleted after using DROP SPACE. #3913
• Optimized number parsing in date time, date, time. #3797
• Added the toSet function which converts LIST or SET to SET. #3594
• nGQL statements can be used to display the HTTP port of Nebula Graph services and the HTTP2 port has been disabled. #3808
• The number of sessions for connections to each graphd with the same client IP and the same user is limited. #3729
• Optimized the waiting mechanism to ensure a timely connection to the metad after the storaged starts. #3971
• When a node has multiple paths and an error of the disk corresponding to a particular path occurs, it is no longer to rebuild the node. #4131
• Optimized the job manager. #3976 #4045 #4001
• The DOWNLOAD and INGEST SST files are now managed with the job manager. #3994
• Support for error code display when a job fails. #4067
• The OS page cache can be disabled and the block cache and Nebula Graph storage cache can only be used in a shared environment, to avoid memory usage interference between applications. #3890
• Updated the default value of the KV separation threshold from 0 to 100. #3879
• Support for using gflag to set the upper limit of expression depth for a better fit of different machine environments. #3722
• Added a permission check for KILL QUERY. When the authorization is enabled, the GOD user can kill any query and the users with other roles can only kill queries that they own. #3896
• Support for more complier launchers, including distcc and sccache. #3896
• More dumping tables are supported with the meta dump tool. #3896
• The storage layer controls the concurrency of write operations (INSERT VERTEX or EDGE) from reporting an error and requiring the client retry to using the internal queueing mechanism. #3926

Bug fixes

• Fixed the crash when using a function call as part of a filter in a LOOKUP statement. #4111

• Fixed the GROUP BY output bug. #4128
• Fixed the bug that the version wasn't displayed with SHOW HOSTS sometimes. #4116
• Fixed the bug on parameters for id(n) == $var, id(n) IN [$var], id(n) == $var.foo.bar, and id(n) IN $var.foo.bar. #4024
• Fixed the bug that an incorrect path direction occurred in MATCH...WHERE. #4091
• Fixed the bug that the result of referencing multiple MATCH variables in a WHERE clause was incorrect. #4143
• Fixed the optimizer bug. #4146
• Fixed the bug that the storage service failed to handle Raft snapshots. #4019
• Fixed the bug that the storage service would not accept more logs after receiving a snapshot. #3909
• Fixed the bug that snapshots did not contain the vertices without tags. #4189
• Fixed the latest schema version read failure when the schema version is greater than 255. #4023
• Fixed the bug that SHOW STATS did not count the vertices that had no tags. #3967
• Fixed the bug that the timestamp was fetched incorrectly sometimes. #3958
• Fixed the bug that the root user could be granted with other roles in the graph space. #3868
• Fixed the duplicate count of column indexes in the lexical parser bug. #3626
