Cascade Directive

With the @cascade directive, nodes that don’t have all predicates specified in the query are removed. This can be useful in cases where some filter was applied or if nodes might not have all listed predicates.

Query Example: Harry Potter movies, with each actor and characters played. With @cascade, any character not played by an actor called Warwick is removed, as is any Harry Potter movie without any actors called Warwick. Without @cascade, every character is returned, but only those played by actors called Warwick also have the actor name.

{
  HP(func: allofterms(name@en, "Harry Potter")) @cascade {
    name@en
    starring{
        performance.character {
          name@en
        }
        performance.actor @filter(allofterms(name@en, "Warwick")){
            name@en
         }
    }
  }
}

Parameterized `@cascade`

The @cascade directive can optionally take a list of fields as an argument. This changes the default behavior, considering only the supplied fields as mandatory instead of all the fields for a type. Listed fields are automatically cascaded as a required argument to nested selection sets. A parameterized cascade works on levels (e.g. on the root function or on lower levels), so you need to specify @cascade(param) on the exact level where you want it to be applied.

Tip The rule with @cascade(predicate) is that the predicate needs to be in the query at the same level @cascade is.

Take the following query as an example:

{
  nodes(func: allofterms(name@en, "jones indiana")) {
    name@en
    genre @filter(anyofterms(name@en, "action adventure")) {
      name@en
    }
    produced_by {
      name@en
    }
  }
}

This query gets nodes that have all the terms “jones indiana” and then traverses to genre and produced_by. It also adds an additional filter for genre, to only get the ones that either have “action” or “adventure” in the name. The results include nodes that have no genre and nodes that have no genre and no producer.

If you apply a regular @cascade without a parameter, you’ll lose the ones that had genre but no producer.

To get the nodes that have the traversed genre but possibly not produced_by, you can parameterize the cascade:

{
  nodes(func: allofterms(name@en, "jones indiana")) @cascade(genre) {
    name@en
    genre @filter(anyofterms(name@en, "action adventure")) {
      name@en
    }
    produced_by {
      name@en
    }
    written_by {
      name@en
    }
  }
}

Nesting and parameterized cascade

The cascading nature of field selection is overwritten by a nested @cascade.

The previous example can be cascaded down the chain as well, and be overridden on each level as needed.

For example, if you only want the “Indiana Jones movies that were produced by the same person who produced a Jurassic World movie”:

{
  nodes(func: allofterms(name@en, "jones indiana")) @cascade(produced_by) {
    name@en
    genre @filter(anyofterms(name@en, "action adventure")) {
      name@en
    }
    produced_by @cascade(producer.film) {
      name@en
      producer.film @filter(allofterms(name@en, "jurassic world")) {
        name@en
      }
    }
    written_by {
      name@en
    }
  }
}
