This example is similar to the basic indexing example, but uses the integrated indexing API.
Take a look at the differences. Here's creating an index:
graphDb = new EmbeddedGraphDatabase( DB_PATH ); nodeIndex = graphDb.index().forNodes( INDEX_NAME ); registerShutdownHook();
A new node index is created by requesting the named index from the index() singleton associated with a GraphDatabaseService. If the index does not yet exist, it will be created.
Indexing a node's property is easy:
Node node = graphDb.createNode(); node.setProperty( USERNAME_KEY, username ); nodeIndex.add( node, USERNAME_KEY, username );
The nicest improvement is that the index does not require a seperate shutdown. Just shutdown the GraphDatabaseService:
graphDb.shutdown();
