Major Changes
- Rewrote connections logic to utilize Neo4j graph db. Users are now stored as nodes and their connects are vertices. 6th degree connection displays faster than Firestore implimentation's calculation of 3rd degree.
- Removed directionality of connections (temp removal). For now, all mentions are treated as bi-directional.
- Redesigned graph data structure. Re-added connection directionality. Connection type is now stored in vertices. (@UniqueRobot65 ↔ @VibrantBee22 ← @ZealousWanderer97 → @QuirkyXenops7)
Minor Changes
- Updated frontend to properly display new information. When a user clicks on another user's profile, they see the chain of users that connects them (ie. @me - @friend - @friend2 - @friend3 - @target_user)
- Removed formatPath function
- Readded location data. Not sure when I accidentally removed it
- Adjusted graph query to remove extra names. Connection chains start with the viewing user and end with the profile being viewed.
- Add prevention of double submitting with submit state. New submitions not allowed when submit state is on.
