This release of Deep Lynx is considered a minor, breaking release.

The purpose of the Deep Lynx query layer is to query and filter data ingested in previous steps. While the previous version of this query layer allowed for sufficient filtering of nodes based on Metatype properties, this release allows for querying of and filtering on nodes, edges, or graph-like node-edge structure.

These changes are considered breaking because an extra wrapper was placed around Metatype queries to account for possible overlap in naming conventions when querying on Metatype Relationships. While the previous version of this query layer allowed queries to begin by stating the Metatype name directly to be queried on, this query must now be wrapped within the metatypes{} object.

As mentioned earlier, edges can now be queried on using the relationships{} object, and graph-like data can be queried using the graph{} object. Additionally, when querying on Metatypes, users can now filter by relationships to other metatypes. Documentation has been updated to exhibit use cases for these newly supported behaviors.

These changes impact any code that relies on the new GraphQL query layer for data retrieval. Any code referencing the legacy query layer will not be affected. The Deep Lynx frontend does not yet reflect these changes.
This release also contains a few minor bug fixes and security updates.
