mr relation-type edit
Edit fields on an existing RelationType. --id is required; any other
flag left unset keeps the existing value (partial update). --name
and --description replace those fields; --reverse-name is accepted
but has no effect here, since a reverse type is established at creation
time (see relation-type create). --from-category and
--to-category rewire the allowed category pairing. Every existing
relation of this type whose groups no longer match the new categories
is deleted, database-wide, along with the matching back-relation edges,
and that is not reversible. Sends POST /v1/relationType/edit and
returns the full updated record.
Usage
mr relation-type edit
Examples
Rename a relation type and update its description
mr relation-type edit --id 5 --name "referenced-by" --description "backward link"
Rewire the target category (relation-type 5 now points to category 7)
mr relation-type edit --id 5 --to-category 7
