Re: [Neo4j] Set property on node in Neo4j REST server
Hi Peter,
For the specific case of updating a single property then:
PUT node/{node_id}/property/{property_key}
with an entity body like:
some text
or
27
would be OK I think
But not until the 1.6 M01 release :-)

Andrew,
answers inline ...

1. Set property: the section 16.5.1 describes that the
url http://localhost:7474/db/data/node/5/properties/foo and the body to be

But how is the string bar sent in the PUT request while the service accepts
a JSON object (Content-type = application/json)?
I have tried to put a string or a json object like {value:testing}. I got
Bad request error as I anticipated.
Looking at
http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/snapshot/rest-api-node-properties.html#rest-api-set-property-on-node
you can set the property as just a string in the request, which is
valid JSON. I have added to the test to check that after multiple
property sets the old ones are still there, see
https://github.com/neo4j/community/blob/master/server/src/functionaltest/java/org/neo4j/server/rest/SetNodePropertiesFunctionalTest.java#L99
This should make sure that you can set inidvidual properties. Updated
the docs also, should be out in some hour.
2. Update properties: I have tried as 16.5.2 instructs and the result are:
a. If I PUT a JSON object that has all existing properties with new values
then all properties of the node are updated with new values.
b. If I PUT a JSON object that has only one property with a new value then
all properties of the node are gone except the property in the PUT with the
new value.
Yes, this is intended, have added a remark to the docs, see
http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/snapshot/rest-api-node-properties.html#rest-api-update-node-properties
and the new wording at
https://github.com/neo4j/community/blob/master/server/src/functionaltest/java/org/neo4j/server/rest/SetNodePropertiesFunctionalTest.java#L42
Does that help? What documenation URI have you been looking at (what
Neo4j version are you using)?
/peter
Would you please explain how I can update a property and how I add new
properties to a node but existing properties are still intact. Thank you very
much!

You can either update just one property or set and override all of them, see

Does that help?

Hey Peter,
I think the confusion may have stemmed from the fact that strings by
themselves are *not* actually valid JSON as far as I understand.
I believe valid JSON is *technically* only objects and arrays, though many
libraries, in practice, tend to support primitive values as valid JSON too.
It's certainly convenient, and I prefer that, too.
E.g. http://jsonlint.com/ validates {} and [] but not or 1 or true:
Parse error on line 1:
^
Expecting '{', '['

Re: [Neo4j] Set property on node in Neo4j REST server
I think PUTting a value to the property's URI (which is effectively it's key
within the node).
Isn't that what we already do though?

Re: [Neo4j] Set property on node in Neo4j REST server
Yes,
But we send a string as the only body, not a map. If we do that, then we
have duplication of the key in the uri and body.
How about putting to /property which will only replace the properties in the
map as opposed to /properties which replaces all properties with the map?

Re: [Neo4j] Set property on node in Neo4j REST server
Hi Peter,
I did use API described by that chapter, however I still have problems. My
nodes have some properties name and type. Now I want to add new properties to
my nodes.
1. Set property: the section 16.5.1 describes that the
url http://localhost:7474/db/data/node/5/properties/foo and the body to be put
is bar. I assume foo is the property name and bar the property value. But
how is the string bar sent in the PUT request while the service accepts a
JSON object (Content-type = application/json)?
I have tried to put a string or a json object like {value:testing}. I got
Bad request error as I anticipated.
2. Update properties: I have tried as 16.5.2 instructs and the result are:

all properties of the node are updated with new values.
b. If I PUT a JSON object that has only one property with a new value then all
properties of the node are gone except the property in the PUT with the new
value.
Would you please explain how I can update a property and how I add new
properties to a node but existing properties are still intact. Thank you very
