Auto-generated a production-ready Python client library by introspecting the Neo4j aviation database schema through the MCP server.

Generated Package (neo4j_client/)

  • 9 Pydantic models - Type-safe data classes for all schema entities (Aircraft, Flight, MaintenanceEvent, System, Component, Sensor, Reading, Airport, Delay)
  • 3 repository classes - CRUD operations with specialized queries (find_by_aircraft, find_by_severity)
  • Connection manager - Context manager with session lifecycle management
  • Custom exceptions - Structured error hierarchy (ConnectionError, QueryError, NotFoundError)

Security & Quality

  • Parameterized Cypher queries throughout (no string interpolation)
  • MERGE-based operations to prevent duplicate nodes
  • Type hints on all functions/methods
  • Pydantic validation for all inputs

Testing

  • 13 integration tests using testcontainers
  • Full CRUD coverage for all repositories
  • Edge case handling (not found, duplicates, errors)

Usage

from neo4j_client import Neo4jConnection, AircraftRepository, Aircraft

with Neo4jConnection(uri, username, password) as conn:
    with conn.get_session() as session:
        repo = AircraftRepository(session)
        
        aircraft = Aircraft(
            aircraft_id="AC001",
            tail_number="N12345",
            model="Boeing 737-800",
            operator="Example Airlines",
            manufacturer="Boeing",
            icao24="ABC123"
        )
        repo.create(aircraft)
        
        found = repo.find_by_id("AC001")
