Gremlin JavaScript Driver for Apache TinkerPop
JSON →The `gremlin` package provides the official JavaScript Gremlin Language Variant (GLV) for Apache TinkerPop, enabling developers to interact with any TinkerPop-enabled graph database. Currently stable at version 3.8.1, this driver is actively maintained with typically 3-4 releases per year, often aligning with major/minor TinkerPop versions. It differentiates itself by being the official Apache project, supporting bytecode-based traversals (the recommended approach over string-based scripts for better performance, portability, and security), and runs on Node.js (version 20 and higher) with experimental support for Web APIs. The driver establishes a WebSocket connection to a remote Gremlin Server or a compatible graph provider, translating JavaScript method calls into Gremlin traversals for execution on the server-side.
