I have this scenario where one visitor creates a Pending-Visit-Request to a Resident. Then based upon the reply provided by the Resident, the visit is either approved or rejected. But before creating a new request, there's also a possibility that the Visitor might have been granted a Permanently-Approved-Visit permission by the Resident, in which case I don't need to go through the approval cycle.
I want to model my Entities in such a way that I can use inheritance and also, wherein the Pending-Visit-Request Relationship is created from the Visitor to the Resident while the Approval/disapproval happen from the Resident to the Visitor.
Here's the generic Person class:
public abstract class Person extends Entity {
@Property private String name;
@Property private String mobileNumber;
@Property private String emailAddress;
@Property private String aadhardId;
}
Please note that the Entity class is the same from the spring-OGM examples. Here's a Resident with the relationship types set:
@NodeEntity(label = "Resident")
public class Resident extends Person {
@Autowired
Session session;
@Relationship(type = "PENDING-VISIT", direction = Relationship.INCOMING)
Set<PendingVisit> pendingVisits = new HashSet<>();
@Relationship(type = "PERMANENTLY-APPROVED-VISIT", direction = Relationship.OUTGOING)
Set<PermanentlyApprovedVisit> permanentlyApprovedVisits = new HashSet<>();
And the Visitor:
@NodeEntity(label="Visitor")
public class Visitor extends Person {
@Autowired
ResidentRepository residentRepository;
@Relationship(type = "PENDING-VISIT", direction = Relationship.OUTGOING)
private Set<PendingVisit> pendingVisit = new HashSet<>();
public Set<PendingVisit> getPendingVisits() {
return pendingVisit;
}
@Relationship(type = "PERMANENTLY-APPROVED-VISIT",direction = Relationship.INCOMING)
Set<PermanentlyApprovedVisit> permanentlyApprovedVisits = new HashSet<>();
Here's the generic Visit, the PendingVisit and the PermanentlyApprovedVisit Relations in that order:
public abstract class Visit{
@GraphId private Long visitId;
@StartNode private T visitRequester;
@EndNode private R visitResponder;
@Property private Date dov;
@RelationshipEntity(type="PENDING-VISIT")
public class PendingVisit extends Visit<Visitor, Resident> {
public PendingVisit(Visitor visitor, Resident resident){
super(visitor,resident);
}
}
@RelationshipEntity(type="PERMANENTLY-APPROVED-VISIT")
public class PermanentlyApprovedVisit extends Visit<Resident,Visitor> {
private final boolean permanentlyApproved = true;
public PermanentlyApprovedVisit(Resident resident, Visitor visitor){
super(resident,visitor);
}
}
When trying to create a pendingVisit, I first want to check if a PErmanentlyApprovedVisit relationship already exists. I am writing my tests and this is how I test:
Optional<PermanentlyApprovedVisit> permanentlyApprovedVisit = Optional.ofNullable(residentRepository.findIfVistorApprovedPermanentlyByResident(resident.getId(), this.getId()));
if(permanentlyApprovedVisit.isPresent())
return permanentlyApprovedVisit.get();
Lastly, this is the ResidentRepository method:
@Query(" OPTIONAL MATCH (resident:Resident)-[r:PERMANENTLY-APPROVED-VISIT]→(visitor:Visitor)"+
" WHERE resident.id = {residentId} AND visitor.id = {visitorId}"+
"RETURN r")
public PermanentlyApprovedVisit findIfVistorApprovedPermanentlyByResident(@Param("residentId")long residentId, @Param("visitorId") long visitorId);
But, when I run it, I keep getting this exception:

Is there an issue with the kind of modelling that I am trying to acheive here? I read another thread where this was a problem with Prev and Next:
