addConstraint: Uniqueness Constraints

In nicolewhite/RNeo4j: Neo4j Driver for R

Description

Add a uniqueness constraint to a label and property key.

Usage

addConstraint(graph, label, key)

Arguments

graph	A graph object.
label	A character string.
key	A character string.

Details

A uniqueness constraint cannot be added to a (label, key) pair that already has an index applied. Attempting to add a uniqueness constraint where an index already exists results in an error. Use getIndex to view any pre-existing indexes. If you wish to add a uniqueness constraint, use dropIndex to drop the index.
