setRelationProperty
Set properties for relationships in Neo4j database
Syntax
Description
setRelationProperty(
sets properties for one or more relationships in a Neo4j® database using a Neo4j database connection.neo4jconn
,relation
,properties
)
returns updated relationship information as a relationinfo
= setRelationProperty(neo4jconn
,relation
,properties
)Neo4jRelation
object for one relationship, or as a table for multiple relationships.
Examples
Set One Relationship Property
Set one property for a single relationship in a Neo4j® database and access the relationship.
Create a Neo4j database connection using the URL http://localhost:7474/db/data
, user name neo4j
, and password matlab
.
url = 'http://localhost:7474/db/data'; username = 'neo4j'; password = 'matlab'; neo4jconn = neo4j(url,username,password);
Check the Message
property of the Neo4j connection object neo4jconn
. The blank Message
property indicates a successful connection.
neo4jconn.Message
ans = []
Retrieve the second node in the table of node information. This node has the label Person
.
nlabel = "Person";
nodeinfo = searchNode(neo4jconn,nlabel);
node = nodeinfo.NodeObject(2);
Find the outgoing relationship from the origin node.
direction = "out";
relinfo = searchRelation(neo4jconn,node,direction);
relation = relinfo.Relations.RelationObject;
Set the StartDate
property for a single relationship in the database using the Neo4j database connection.
properties.StartDate = "01/01/2018";
setRelationProperty(neo4jconn,relation,properties)
Display the relationship information for the updated relationship.
relinfo = searchRelation(neo4jconn,node,direction); relinfo.Relations.RelationData{1}
ans = struct with fields:
StartDate: '01/01/2018'
Close the database connection.
close(neo4jconn)
Set Multiple Relationship Properties and Return Output
Set relationship properties for multiple relationships in a Neo4j® database. Access the updated relationship information using an output argument.
Create a Neo4j database connection using the URL http://localhost:7474/db/data
, user name neo4j
, and password matlab
.
url = 'http://localhost:7474/db/data'; username = 'neo4j'; password = 'matlab'; neo4jconn = neo4j(url,username,password);
Check the Message
property of the Neo4j connection object neo4jconn
. The blank Message
property indicates a successful connection.
neo4jconn.Message
ans = []
Find the origin node with the node identifier 3
and retrieve its node information.
nodeid = 3; nodeinfo = searchNodeByID(neo4jconn,nodeid);
Find the outgoing relationships from the origin node.
direction = "out";
relinfo = searchRelation(neo4jconn,nodeinfo,direction);
relation = relinfo.Relations.RelationObject;
Set the MeetLocation
property for two outgoing relationships to different values using the Neo4j database connection. Create a structure array to store the properties. The relationinfo
output argument is a Neo4jRelation
object.
properties(1).MeetLocation = "Chicago"; properties(2).MeetLocation = "Miami"; relationinfo = setRelationProperty(neo4jconn,relation,properties);
Display the relationship information for the two updated relationships.
relationinfo.RelationData{1:2}
ans = struct with fields:
MeetLocation: 'Chicago'
ans = struct with fields:
MeetLocation: 'Miami'
Close the database connection.
close(neo4jconn)
Input Arguments
neo4jconn
— Neo4j database connection
Neo4jConnect
object
Neo4j database connection, specified as a Neo4jConnect
object created with the function neo4j
.
relation
— Relationship
Neo4jRelation
object | Neo4jRelation
object array | numeric scalar | numeric vector
Relationship in a Neo4j database, specified as a Neo4jRelation
object, Neo4jRelation
object array, numeric
scalar, or numeric vector. For a single relationship, use a
Neo4jRelation
object or a numeric scalar that contains the
relationship identifier. For multiple relationships, use a
Neo4jRelation
object array or a numeric vector that contains an
array of relationship identifiers.
Example: 15
Example: [15,16,17]
properties
— Relationship properties
structure | structure array | table
Relationship properties, specified as a structure, structure array, or table.
If a property does not exist, then the setRelationProperty
function adds a new property. If the property exists, then the function sets a new value
for the existing property.
When you specify a structure, the setRelationProperty
function
converts each field and its corresponding value to a property and its corresponding
value in the database relationship. When you specify a table that contains one row, the
function converts each variable and its corresponding value to a property and its
corresponding value in the database relationship.
Specify a structure array or a table with multiple rows to update multiple relationships in the database.
The dimensions of the data in the structure array or table must be the same as the number of the specified relationships in the database to update. However, you can use a scalar structure to set the same values for multiple relationships in the database simultaneously.
Data Types: struct
| table
Output Arguments
relationinfo
— Relationship information
Neo4jRelation
object | table
Relationship information, returned as a Neo4jRelation
object for one relationship or as a table for multiple
relationships.
For multiple relationships, the table contains these variables:
StartNodeID
— Node identifier of the start node for each matched relationshipRelationType
— Character vector that denotes the relationship type for each matched relationshipEndNodeID
— Node identifier of the end node for each matched relationshipRelationData
— Structure array that contains property keys associated with each matched relationshipRelationObject
—Neo4jRelation
object for each matched relationship
The row names in the table are Neo4j relationship identifiers.
