Consider I have a node having Label L1 in Neo4j database. I need to put a constraint on all nodes having label L1 such that there shall be no outgoing edge from these nodes. So whenever user tries to add an outgoing edge from these nodes, a constraint violation occurs. Is it possible to add user defined constraints on nodes and relationships?
If yes, how can I put such constraint(s) on nodes/relationships using Neo4j Java API's?
According to the Neo4j constraints documentation there is no way to do this.
I think you should delegate this type of responsibility to the application layer. Alternatively, you can try achieve your goal writing your own user defined procedure.
