ontology.delete_link_type
Delete a draft link type.
strata graph ontology delete-link-typedb.graphs.ontology.delete_link_type(graph: 'str', name: 'str') -> 'Any'wire graph_delete_link_type
Removes a link type from the graph's draft ontology. Deleting a type that was never declared is not an error: the acknowledgement reports `deleted: false`. Once the ontology is frozen this command fails with `failed_precondition.engine.graph_ontology_frozen`.
Successful mutations return an acknowledgement of the outcome: for a state-changing write, the affected target with the mutation effect and commit facts; for mutations that produce a domain result (such as a branch or a promotion outcome), that result object.
To see the complete help for this command, run:

Example
