Sprite

Introduction

Edit on Github

Sprite is a TypeScript (or JavaScript) driver/client for ArcadeDB designed to work with data in document and graph formats. Future releases will include support for timeseries functionality.

It provides a typesafe interface for interacting with the ArcadeDB REST API, using JavaScript’s native fetch API.

The functionality is divided accross multiple modules to keep the namespace clean and focused.
