congrats on shipping michel - it's very cool that you've wrapped this into a PG extension. The breadth-first search looks interesting. Do you have some more docs or a simple example with table data?

One request for the "todos" at the end would be a small docker container with onesparse pre-installed - it would help a lot for getting started

Also I may have missed this, but are there more docs yet, or just the readme for now?

I got this out a bit early to get some eyeballs on it and open it up to community contribution. I have a branch in progress converting the various Python examples and notebooks we have over to SQL. So stay tuned.

For docs the best reference to the algebra is the SuiteSparse User Guide, but that doesn't cover the SQL side of things. I'm working on an idea where I put markdown comments in the sql test files and simulate the Python doctest tool so I can render markdown documentation from the test files. If that works out they'll end up on github pages as the official SQL docs with links out to the SuiteSparse User Guide for the low level details.
