function get_lims_parameters_by_id
Retrieves a LIMS_Parameters node from a Neo4j graph database by its unique identifier.

simple
Purpose
This function queries a Neo4j database to fetch a specific LIMS_Parameters node using its ID. It's designed for Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) data retrieval, allowing users to access parameter configurations or settings stored in the graph database. The function returns the first matching node or None if no match is found.
Source Code
def get_lims_parameters_by_id(id):
"""Get a LIMS_Parameters node by its ID"""
query = """
MATCH (n:LIMS_Parameters {id: $id})
RETURN n
"""
result = run_query(query, {"id": id})
return result[0] if result else None
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Kind |
|---|---|---|---|
id |
- | - | positional_or_keyword |
Parameter Details
id: The unique identifier of the LIMS_Parameters node to retrieve. Expected to be a string or integer that matches the 'id' property of a LIMS_Parameters node in the Neo4j database. This parameter is used in the Cypher query to filter and locate the specific node.
Return Value
Returns a dictionary-like object representing the LIMS_Parameters node if found, containing all properties of the node. Returns None if no node with the specified ID exists. The exact structure depends on the properties stored in the LIMS_Parameters node in the database. The function returns the first element of the result list (result[0]) when a match is found.
Dependencies
neo4j
Required Imports
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
Usage Example
# Assuming run_query function is defined and Neo4j connection is configured
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
# Define run_query helper function (example implementation)
def run_query(query, parameters=None):
driver = GraphDatabase.driver('bolt://localhost:7687', auth=('neo4j', 'password'))
with driver.session() as session:
result = session.run(query, parameters)
return [record['n'] for record in result]
driver.close()
# Use the function to retrieve a LIMS_Parameters node
lims_params = get_lims_parameters_by_id('PARAM_001')
if lims_params:
print(f'Found LIMS Parameters: {lims_params}')
else:
print('No LIMS Parameters found with that ID')
Best Practices
- Ensure the run_query function is properly implemented with error handling and connection management
- Validate the 'id' parameter before passing it to prevent injection attacks or invalid queries
- Consider adding error handling for database connection failures or query execution errors
- Close Neo4j driver connections properly to avoid resource leaks
- Use connection pooling for better performance in production environments
- Consider adding logging to track query execution and failures
- Validate that the returned node has the expected structure before using its properties
- Consider adding a timeout parameter for long-running queries
