## org.neo4j.graphdb.index
Interface ReadableRelationshipIndex

All Superinterfaces:
  ReadableIndex<Relationship>

All Known Subinterfaces:
  RelationshipIndex

    public interface ReadableRelationshipIndex

extends ReadableIndex<Relationship>

Extends the `ReadableIndex` interface with additional get/query methods which are specific to `Relationship`s. Each of `ReadableIndex.get(String, Object)`, `ReadableIndex.query(String, Object)` and `ReadableIndex.query(Object)` have an additional method which allows efficient filtering on start/end node of the relationships.

Method Summary
`IndexHits<Relationship>` | `get(String key, Object valueOrNull, Node startNodeOrNull, Node endNodeOrNull)` Returns exact matches from this index, given the key/value pair.
`IndexHits<Relationship>` | `query(Object queryOrQueryObjectOrNull, Node startNodeOrNull, Node endNodeOrNull)` Returns matches from this index based on the supplied query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.
`IndexHits<Relationship>` | `query(String key, Object queryOrQueryObjectOrNull, Node startNodeOrNull, Node endNodeOrNull)` Returns matches from this index based on the supplied `key` and query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.

Method Detail

### get

    IndexHits<Relationship> get(String key,
                                Object valueOrNull,
                                Node startNodeOrNull,
                                Node endNodeOrNull)

  Returns exact matches from this index, given the key/value pair. Matches will be for key/value pairs just as they were added by the `#add(PropertyContainer, String, Object)` method.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key in the key/value pair to match.
    `valueOrNull` - the value in the key/value pair to match.
    `startNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given start node will be returned.
    `endNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given end node will be returned.
  Returns:
    the result wrapped in an `IndexHits` object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, `IndexHits.close()` must be called before disposing of the result.

### query

    IndexHits<Relationship> query(String key,
                                  Object queryOrQueryObjectOrNull,
                                  Node startNodeOrNull,
                                  Node endNodeOrNull)

  Returns matches from this index based on the supplied `key` and query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.

  Parameters:
    `key` - the key in this query.
    `queryOrQueryObjectOrNull` - the query for the `key` to match.
    `startNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given start node will be returned.
    `endNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given end node will be returned.
  Returns:
    the result wrapped in an `IndexHits` object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, `IndexHits.close()` must be called before disposing of the result.

### query

    IndexHits<Relationship> query(Object queryOrQueryObjectOrNull,
                                  Node startNodeOrNull,
                                  Node endNodeOrNull)

  Returns matches from this index based on the supplied query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.

  Parameters:
    `queryOrQueryObjectOrNull` - the query to match.
    `startNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given start node will be returned.
    `endNodeOrNull` - filter so that only `Relationship`s with that given end node will be returned.
  Returns:
    the result wrapped in an `IndexHits` object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, `IndexHits.close()` must be called before disposing of the result.
