Convert orientdb json to graphml
npm install odb2graphml
This quickly-hacked-together node package converts the JSON exported by OrientDB into GraphML.
The goal is for the generated GraphML to be compatible with importing into Neo4j, via neo4j-shell-tools.
``
npm install -g odb2graphml
odb2graphml --help
By default, this tool will remove any edges that don't have corresponding vertices/nodes. Neo4j's import tool will fail if it
encounters edges that reference absent nodes. If, for some reason, you want to keep these edges, pass the -k or --keep
option to the tool. This scenario (missing nodes) is likely to occur when doing a non-locking export of an OrientDB database.
NB: using time is obviously optional.

The code uses some ES6 features like template strings, so you will need a version of nodejs that supports those: at least v4.0.0.
The code should mostly work in its current verison, though there are almost certain bugs and edge cases I've missed.
It uses oboe.js for streaming JSON parsing, the idea being that some export files may be very large and we don't want to load them all into memory at once.
Hence, it should be able to handle files of (more or less) arbitrarily large size.
Other notes:
* In order to ensure all nodes are output into graphml before edges (which is required by neo4j's import tool), we make
two passes through the input file; we could avoid this by using temporary files (also hacky) or in-memory write streams (which
undermines the benefits of using streams in the first place). This approach is about 2x slower, but seems the least hacky, though
more advanced knowledge of nodejs streams might provide a better solution.
