Entities Objects​

class Entities(Subscriptable)

This class is the common class to query any entity from ApertureDB. The specialized subclasses, which provide a more user friendly interface, are:

retrieve_entities​

@classmethod
def retrieve_entities(cls,
                      db: Connector,
                      spec: Query,
                      with_adjacent: Dict[str,
                                          Query] = None) -> List[Entities]
