 String graphPropertyName)

forInternallyGeneratedIds

 String graphPropertyName)

asIdExpression

public org.neo4j.cypherdsl.core.Expression asIdExpression()

asIdExpression

public org.neo4j.cypherdsl.core.Expression asIdExpression(String nodeName)

Creates the right identifier expression for this node entity. Note: This enforces a recalculation of the name on invoke.

Parameters:

nodeName - use this name as the symbolic name of the node in the query

Returns:

An expression that represents the right identifier type.

getIdGeneratorClass

public Optional<Class<? extends IdGenerator<?>>> getIdGeneratorClass()

getIdGeneratorRef

public Optional<String> getIdGeneratorRef()

isAssignedId

public boolean isAssignedId()

Returns:

True, if the ID is assigned to the entity before the entity hits the database, either manually or through a generator.

isInternallyGeneratedId

public boolean isInternallyGeneratedId()

Returns:

True, if the database generated the ID.

isExternallyGeneratedId

public boolean isExternallyGeneratedId()

Returns:

True, if the ID is externally generated.

getOptionalGraphPropertyName

public Optional<String> getOptionalGraphPropertyName()

An ID description has only a corresponding graph property name when it's bas on an external assigment. An internal id has no corresponding graph property and therefore this method will return an empty Optional in such cases.

Returns:

The name of an optional graph property.
