This section introduces methods for the insertion of nodes and edges.

Graph Structure

The examples in this section demonstrate the insertion and deletion of nodes and edges in a graph based on the following schema and property definitions:

insertNodes()

Inserts nodes to a schema in the graph.

Parameters

• nodes: List[Node]: The list of nodes to be inserted; the attribute uuid of each Node cannot be set.
• schemaName: str: Schema name.
• InsertRequestConfig (Optional): Request configuration.

Returns

• Response: Response of the request.

# Inserts two 'user' nodes into the graph 'social'

insertRequestConfig = InsertRequestConfig(graph="social")

nodes = [
    Node(id="U1", values={
        "name": "Alice",
        "age": 18,
        "score": 65.32,
        "birthday": "1993-5-4",
        "active": 0,

]

response = Conn.insertNodes(nodes, "user", insertRequestConfig)
if response.status.code.name == "SUCCESS":
    print(response.status.code.name)
else:
    print(response.status.message)

SUCCESS

insertEdges()

Inserts edges to a schema in the graph.

Parameters

• edges: List[Edge]: The list of edges to be inserted; the attributes fromId and toId of each Edge are mandatory, uuid, fromUuid, and toUuid cannot be set.
