    1. Now that we have the schema ready, the next step is to load it into Grakn.

      After defining schema, it needs to be loaded into Grakn:

      1) Place schema.gql in the container volume, such as db/schema.gql.

      2) Run:

      docker exec -ti grakn bash -c '/grakn-core-all-linux/grakn console --keyspace experiment --file /grakn-core-all-linux/server/db/schema.gql'
      

      3) Observe a similar result:

      Loading: /grakn-core-all-linux/server/db/schema.gql
      ...
      {}
      Successful commit: schema.gql
      
    2. There's just one more step – defining the attribute types

      Don't forget to define attribute types, such as:

      name sub attribute,
          datatype string;
      
      address sub attribute,
          datatype string;
      
      timestamp sub attribute, abstract,
          datatype date;
      
          created sub timestamp;
          last-modified sub timestamp;
          last-accessed sub timestamp;
          penalty-until sub timestamp;
      
      url sub attribute,
          datatype string;
      

      ...

    3. We've ended up with three entities: user, badge and location. How to glue them together? Using relations.

      Use of relations to glue different entities:

      location-of-user sub relation,
          relates located-user,
          relates user-location;
      
      achievements sub relation,
          has score,
          relates contributor,
          relates award;
      
    4. Some things are common to multiple users, like a location (e.g. Austin, TX, USA) or the types of badges they've been awarded (bronze, silver, gold). We'll model locations and badges as separate entities.

      Modelling separate entities:

      location sub entity,
          key address,
          plays user-location;
      
      badge sub entity,
          key color,
          plays award;
      
    5. Graql β€” Grakn's query language that allows you to model, query and reason over data.
