# edges

Positional references between nodes: whenever a field of one node holds the identifier of another, one row records the pair and the field path as `role`. Both directions are reachable by filtering `from` or `to`. Edges carry no meaning of their own — an alias, a subtype step, a head use and a body use all look the same here. For the typed reading use the links relation instead.

## Fields

From the live dictionary on the reference fixture:

| field |
|---|
| `from` |
| `to` |
| `role` |
| `package` |
| `path` |

## Example

One meaningful query on the reference fixture (36 rows):

```lawq
from e in edges select e.from as f, e.role as r, e.to as t
```
