function create_parameter_medicationtypes
Creates a new Parameter_MedicationTypes node in a Neo4j graph database with the specified properties and returns the created node.

simple
Purpose
This function is designed to insert a new Parameter_MedicationTypes node into a Neo4j graph database. It dynamically constructs a Cypher CREATE query based on the provided properties dictionary, executes the query using a run_query helper function, and returns the newly created node. This is useful for managing medication type parameters in a healthcare or pharmaceutical data model.
Source Code
def create_parameter_medicationtypes(properties):
"""Create a new Parameter_MedicationTypes node"""
props_list = ', '.join([f"n.{prop} = ${prop}" for prop in properties.keys()])
query = f"""
CREATE (n:Parameter_MedicationTypes)
SET {props_list}
RETURN n
"""
result = run_query(query, properties)
return result[0] if result else None
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Kind |
|---|---|---|---|
properties |
- | - | positional_or_keyword |
Parameter Details
properties: A dictionary containing key-value pairs representing the properties to be set on the new Parameter_MedicationTypes node. Keys should be valid property names (strings) and values can be any data type supported by Neo4j (strings, numbers, booleans, lists, etc.). Example: {'name': 'Antibiotics', 'category': 'Prescription', 'active': True}
Return Value
Returns the first node from the query result if the creation was successful, typically a dictionary-like object representing the created Parameter_MedicationTypes node with all its properties. Returns None if the query execution fails or returns no results. The exact return type depends on the implementation of the run_query function, but typically it would be a Neo4j Node object or a dictionary representation of the node.
Dependencies
neo4j
Required Imports
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
Usage Example
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
# Assuming run_query is defined elsewhere
def run_query(query, params):
driver = GraphDatabase.driver('bolt://localhost:7687', auth=('neo4j', 'password'))
with driver.session() as session:
result = session.run(query, params)
return [record['n'] for record in result]
driver.close()
# Create a new medication type parameter
properties = {
'name': 'Antibiotics',
'category': 'Prescription',
'description': 'Medications that fight bacterial infections',
'active': True
}
node = create_parameter_medicationtypes(properties)
if node:
print(f'Created node: {node}')
else:
print('Failed to create node')
Best Practices
- Ensure the properties dictionary contains only valid property names and values that are compatible with Neo4j data types
- Validate input properties before passing them to this function to prevent injection attacks or invalid data
- Handle the None return value appropriately in calling code to detect creation failures
- Consider adding error handling around the run_query call to catch database connection or query execution errors
- Be cautious with property names that might conflict with Cypher reserved keywords
- Ensure the run_query function properly sanitizes parameters to prevent Cypher injection attacks
- Consider adding uniqueness constraints on the Parameter_MedicationTypes label if duplicate nodes should be prevented
- Use transactions appropriately if this function is part of a larger operation that needs atomicity
