Interface BatchInserterIndex

Deprecated.

This API will be removed in next major release. Please consider using schema indexes instead.

@Deprecated
public interface BatchInserterIndex

The BatchInserter version of Index. Additions/updates to a BatchInserterIndex doesn't necessarily gets added to the actual index immediately, but are instead forced to be written when the index is shut down, BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown(). To guarantee additions/updates are seen by updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) a call to flush() must be made prior to calling such a method. This enables implementations more flexibility in making for performance optimizations.

Method Detail

add

@Deprecated
void add(long entityId,
                     Map<String,Object> properties)

Deprecated.

Adds key/value pairs for entity to the index. If there's a previous index for entity it will co-exist with this new one. This behavior is because of performance reasons, to not being forced to check if indexing for entity already exists or not. If you need to update indexing for entity and it's ok with a slower indexing process use updateOrAdd(long, Map) instead. Entries added to the index aren't necessarily written to the index and to disk until BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown() has been called. Entries added to the index isn't necessarily seen by other methods: updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) until a call to flush() has been made.

Parameters:

entityId - the entity (i.e id of Node or Relationship) to associate the key/value pairs with.

properties - key/value pairs to index for entity.

updateOrAdd

@Deprecated
void updateOrAdd(long entityId,
                             Map<String,Object> properties)

Deprecated.

Adds key/value pairs for entity to the index. If there's any previous index for entity all such indexed key/value pairs will be deleted first. This method can be considerably slower than add(long, Map) because it must check if there are properties already indexed for entity. So if you know that there's no previous indexing for entity use add(long, Map) instead. Entries added to the index aren't necessarily written to the index and to disk until BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown() has been called. Entries added to the index isn't necessarily seen by other methods: updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) until a call to flush() has been made. So only entries added before the most recent flush() are guaranteed to be found by this method.

Parameters:

entityId - the entity (i.e id of Node or Relationship) to associate the key/value pairs with.

properties - key/value pairs to index for entity.

get

@Deprecated
org.neo4j.graphdb.index.IndexHits<Long> get(String key,
                                                        Object value)

Deprecated.

Returns exact matches from this index, given the key/value pair. Matches will be for key/value pairs just as they were added by the add(long, Map) or updateOrAdd(long, Map) method. Entries added to the index aren't necessarily written to the index and to disk until BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown() has been called. Entries added to the index isn't necessarily seen by other methods: updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) until a call to flush() has been made. So only entries added before the most recent flush() are guaranteed to be found by this method.

Parameters:

key - the key in the key/value pair to match.

value - the value in the key/value pair to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

query

@Deprecated
org.neo4j.graphdb.index.IndexHits<Long> query(String key,
                                                          Object queryOrQueryObject)

Deprecated.

Returns matches from this index based on the supplied key and query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object. Entries added to the index aren't necessarily written to the index and to disk until BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown() has been called. Entries added to the index isn't necessarily seen by other methods: updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) until a call to flush() has been made. So only entries added before the most recent flush() are guaranteed to be found by this method.

Parameters:

key - the key in this query.

queryOrQueryObject - the query for the key to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

query

@Deprecated
org.neo4j.graphdb.index.IndexHits<Long> query(Object queryOrQueryObject)

Deprecated.

Returns matches from this index based on the supplied query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object. Entries added to the index aren't necessarily written to the index and to disk until BatchInserterIndexProvider.shutdown() has been called. Entries added to the index isn't necessarily seen by other methods: updateOrAdd(long, Map), get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) until a call to flush() has been made. So only entries added before the most recent flush() are guaranteed to be found by this method.

Parameters:

queryOrQueryObject - the query to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

flush

@Deprecated
void flush()

Deprecated.

Makes sure additions/updates can be seen by get(String, Object), query(String, Object) and query(Object) so that they are guaranteed to return correct results. Also updateOrAdd(long, Map) will find previous indexing correctly after a flush.

setCacheCapacity

@Deprecated
void setCacheCapacity(String key,
                                  int size)

Deprecated.

Sets the cache size for key/value pairs for the given key. Caching values may increase get(String, Object) lookups significantly, but may at the same time slow down insertion of data some. Be sure to call this method to enable caching for keys that will be used a lot in lookups. It's also best to call this method for your keys right after the index has been created.

Parameters:

key - the key to set cache capacity for.

size - the number of values to cache results for.
