Unique Index in Spring Data Neo4j

[Abdul Azeez Shaik]

Dear,

Unique index type in SDN is not working for me. Just wanted to check if it is a known issue?

I am using latest SDN and Neo4j1.7 stable version.

Here is my index configuration,

@Indexed(indexName="dummy", indexType=IndexType.UNIQUE)

String dummy;

Whereas other indexes are working pretty fine.

Thanks,

Abdul

It's @Indexed( indexName="dummy", indexType=IndexType.Simple, unique=true)

Unchecked, not in front of a computer right -now.

Hi Tero,

Thanks for the response. This one is working. 

Though, the 'new' entity has not been created, repo.save() is not throwing any exception or error for duplicates. Is there a way to know that this is the duplicate entity?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

 Abdul

Right now thats the semantics for uniqueness in Neo4j it is rather a getOrCreate() 

I'm not sure about communicating duplicates. We might add a attribute to @Indexed that'll cause an exception on duplicate entity creation.
