Delete Vertex with label specified in CSV about nebula-importer

[wey-gu]

Dear Goranc,

Thank you!

When it comes to +/- in :LABEL, the object that the importer handles to a CSV row insert/delete action on the row's importer type: a vertex or an edge, where<TAG>.<Property> in the header here are about vertex's property under a TAG, thus, you are right, all information from items/column data here for delete case is not being considered/ needed(because vid is sufficient to identify them when deleting a vertex), thus it's possible to confuse for the case:

• When a user assembles lines with -, vid, and <TAG>.<Property>, it's possibly considered the semantic of removing vertices' Property from them, rather than realizing importer are actually dealing with vertex/edge entities.

If I understand it correctly, maybe a notice could be added to remind the user of this to avoid misunderstanding.

Also, apart from this (by nature, importer handles vertex/edge per row in semantic), do you have the needs of batch processing on only removing TAG from specific vertices(rather than all ones with this TAG)? If so, would you mind raise the issue on nebula-graph to describe your requirement and backgrounds for this? In case that is introduced in the future, maybe another importer type could be introduced accordingly to fulfill this requirement if you have now.

For the case that you would like to remove TAG from all vertices, DROP TAG would be enough, which I think you already know about it, just mention for the safe side. :)

Also, thank you again for raising hands here to help the community better ❤,and I totally understand the intuition of considering deleting(-) only specific TAG(rather than all), it's coz you understood that it's stored in separated keys underlying for different tags per vertex(https://docs.nebula-graph.io/manual-EN/1.overview/3.design-and-architecture/2.storage-design/ )
