#convert_properties_to

Modifies a hash’s values to be of types acceptable to Neo4j or matching what the user defined using type in property definitions.

def convert_properties_to(obj, medium, properties)
  direction = medium == :ruby ? :to_ruby : :to_db
  properties.each_pair do |key, value|
    next if skip_conversion?(obj, key, value)
    properties[key] = convert_property(key, value, direction)
  end
end

#convert_property

Converts a single property from its current format to its db- or Ruby-expected output type.

def convert_property(key, value, direction)

end

.converters

Returns the value of attribute converters

.formatted_for_db?

Attempts to determine whether conversion should be skipped because the object is already of the anticipated output type.
