Manage constraints with awareness of async creation

Create and manage constraints on node properties, understanding that constraint creation may be asynchronous.

Usage

Use GRAPH.CONSTRAINT CREATE to establish constraints and check their status with the db.constraints() procedure.

Example

redis-cli GRAPH.CONSTRAINT CREATE social UNIQUE NODE Person PROPERTIES 1 id
redis-cli GRAPH.QUERY social "CALL db.constraints()"

Notes

• Constraints ensure data integrity by enforcing uniqueness rules
• Constraint creation may be asynchronous, especially on large graphs
• Use db.constraints() to verify constraint status
• The syntax shown is typical, but confirm exact syntax with current FalkorDB documentation
• Constraints help prevent duplicate data and maintain data quality
• Constraint violations will cause write operations to fail
