SurrealQL

SurrealQL is SurrealDB's query language. Syntax is broadly SQL-like, with extensions for nested fields, graph edges, record IDs, and other SurrealDB-specific constructs.

For a guided introduction, see Learn: Querying.

Examples

A minimal query can follow a familiar SQL shape:

SELECT name,
       metadata
FROM   user
WHERE  age >= 18; 

Projections can include nested objects and graph traversals:

SELECT name,
       metadata.{
          date_registered,
          last_login
       },
       ->wrote->post AS posts
FROM user
WHERE age >= 18;
