使用Cypher在Neo4j中的两个节点之间创建相同类型的多个关系

Question

Is it possible to create multiple relationships of the same type with different properties between two nodes?

For example: for a movie with a double role:

Actor--acts{charactername : "hank"}--> movie.

and also the same actor, does another character in the same movie say, FRED

Actor-- acts{ charactername: "Fred"}-->Movie

.

Is there a way to do so using Cypher? I am using the REST API, Neo4j 2.0.2.

Answer 1

Multiple of relations of the same type with or without different properties are allowed between two nodes.

This Cypher statement will create acts relations for all character names passed in:

MATCH (actor:Actor {id:3}),(movie:Movie { id:4})
FOREACH (character IN ['Hank', 'Fred']| 
         CREATE actor-[:acts { charactername:character }]->movie)
