The neo4j-apoc-procedures from cuissai

Collection of useful Procedures for Neo4j 3.x

Build & install apoc procedures

git clone http://github.com/jexp/neo4j-apoc-procedures
cd neo4j-apoc-procedures
mvn clean install
cp target/apoc-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar $NEO4J_HOME/plugins/
$NEO4J_HOME/bin/neo4j restart

If you want to run embedded or use shell on a disk store, configure your plugins directory in conf/neo4j.conf with dbms.plugin.directory=path/to/plugins.

Calling Procedures within Cypher

This repository uses a recent build (>= 3.0.0) of Neo4j, so that it can leverage procedures being called within Cypher statements.

CALL apoc.load.json('http://example.com/map.json') YIELD value as person
MERGE (p:Person {name:person.name})
ON CREATE SET p.age = person.age, p.children = size(person.children)

Included Procedures

Built in Help

call apoc.help('search') lists name, description-text and if the procedure performs writes (descriptions are WIP), search string is checked against beginning (package) or end (name) of procedure

Date/time Support (thanks @tkroman)

Conversion between formatted dates and timestamps

apoc.date.toSeconds('2015-03-25 03:15:59') get Unix time equivalent of given date (in seconds)
apoc.date.toSecondsFormatted('2015/03/25 03-15-59', 'yyyy/MM/dd HH/mm/ss') same as previous, but accepts custom datetime format
apoc.date.fromSeconds(12345) get string representation of date corresponding to given Unix time (in seconds)
apoc.date.fromSecondsFormatted(12345, 'yyyy/MM/dd HH/mm/ss') the same as previous, but accepts custom datetime format
apoc.date.toMillis('2015-03-25 03:15:59') get Unix time equivalent of given date (in milliseconds)
apoc.date.toMillisFormatted('2015/03/25 03-15-59', 'yyyy/MM/dd HH/mm/ss') same as previous, but accepts custom datetime format
apoc.date.fromMillis(12345) get string representation of date corresponding to given time in milliseconds
apoc.date.fromMillisFormatted(12345, 'yyyy/MM/dd HH/mm/ss') the same as previous, but accepts custom datetime format

Reading separate datetime fields:

Splits date (optionally, using given custom format) into fields returning a map from field name to its value.

apoc.date.fields('2015-03-25 03:15:59')
apoc.date.fieldsFormatted('2015-01-02 03:04:05 EET', 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss zzz')

Following fields are supported:

Result field	Represents
'years'	year
'months'	month of year
'days'	day of month
'hours'	hour of day
'minutes'	minute of hour
'seconds'	second of minute
'zone'	time zone

Examples

  apoc.date.fields('2015-03-25 03:15:59') =>
    {
      'Months': 1,
      'Days': 2,
      'Hours': 3,
      'Minutes': 4,
      'Seconds': 5,
      'Years': 2015
    }

apoc.date.fieldsFormatted('2015-01-02 03:04:05 EET', 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss zzz') =>
  {
    'ZoneId': 'Europe/Bucharest',
    'Months': 1,
    'Days': 2,
    'Hours': 3,
    'Minutes': 4,
    'Seconds': 5,
    'Years': 2015
  }

apoc.date.fieldsFormatted('2015/01/02_EET', 'yyyy/MM/dd_z') =>
  {
    'Years': 2015,
    'ZoneId': 'Europe/Bucharest',
    'Months': 1,
    'Days': 2
  }

Notes on formats:

the default format is yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
if the format pattern doesn’t specify timezone, formatter considers dates to belong to the UTC timezone
if the timezone pattern is specified, the timezone is extracted from the date string, otherwise an error will be reported
the to/fromSeconds timestamp values are in POSIX (Unix time) system, i.e. timestamps represent the number of seconds elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC, Thursday, 1 January 1970
the full list of supported formats is described in SimpleDateFormat JavaDoc

Path Expander (thanks @keesvegter)

The apoc.path.expand procedure makes it possible to do variable length path traversals where you can specify the direction of the relationship per relationship type and a list of Label names which act as a "whitelist" or a "blacklist". The procedure will return a list of Paths in a variable name called "path".

call apoc.path.expand(startNode <id>|Node, relationshipFilter, labelFilter, minLevel, maxLevel ) yield path as <identifier>
- startnode <id> |Node
- relationshipFilter: RELATIONSHIP_TYPE1{<,>,}|RELATIONSHIP_TYPE2{<,>,}|…
  - RELATIONSHIP_TYPE> only direction Outgoing
  - RELATIONSHIP_TYPE< only direction Incoming
  - RELATIONSHIP_TYPE both directions
- labelFilter: {+.-} LABEL1|LABEL2|…
  - + include label list (white list)
  - - exclude label list (black list)
- minLevel minimum path level
- maxLevel maximum path level

Examples

call apoc.path.expand(1,"ACTED_IN>|PRODUCED<|FOLLOWS<","+Movie|Person",0,3)
call apoc.path.expand(1,"ACTED_IN>|PRODUCED<|FOLLOWS<","-BigBrother",0,3)
call apoc.path.expand(1,"ACTED_IN>|PRODUCED<|FOLLOWS<","",0,3)

combined with cypher:

match (tom:Person {name :"Tom Hanks"})
call apoc.path.expand(tom,"ACTED_IN>|PRODUCED<|FOLLOWS<","+Movie|Person",0,3) yield path as pp
return pp;

or

match (p:Person) with p limit 3
call apoc.path.expand(p,"ACTED_IN>|PRODUCED<|FOLLOWS<","+Movie|Person",1,2) yield path as pp
return p, pp

Graph Alorithms (work in progress)

Provides a wrapper around GraphAlgoFactory.

CALL apoc.algo.dijkstra(startNode, endNode, relAndDirections, costProperty) - run dijkstra with a relationship property as cost function, relAndDirections is a path expander specification from above.
CALL apoc.algo.dijkstraWithDefaultWeight(startNode, endNode, relAndDirections, costProperty, defaultCost) - run dijkstra with a relationship property as cost function. If the relationship property does not exist, use the specified default value instead.

Example: find the weighted shortest path based on relationship property d from A to B following just :ROAD relationships

MATCH (from:Loc{name:'A'}), (to:Loc{name:'D'})
CALL apoc.algo.dijkstra(from, to, 'ROAD', 'd') yield path as path, weight as weight
RETURN path, weight
MATCH (n:Person)

Plans

move apoc.get to apoc.nodes and apoc.rels
add apoc.nodes.delete(id|ids|node|nodes)
(√) add weight/score to manual index operations, expose it, TODO add Sort.RELEVANCE sorter conditionally or unconditionally
pass in last count to rundown so you can also do batch-creates
warmup procedures that load nodes / rels by skipping one page at a time (8kb/15bytes) (8kb/35bytes)
conversions for type-system of "objects" to map, list, node etc. to avoid the semantic errors we sometimes get
in browser guide as apoc-help-page
(√) optimized collection functions (WIP)
Time Conversion Functions (ISO<→ts, padded long representation)
ordered, limited retrieval from index (both manual and schema index)
json to graph (mapping)
virtual graph from collection of nodes and rels, handle node-uniqueness with pk
RDF / Ontology loader
Encryption / decryption of single properties or a subset or all properties (provide decryption key as param or config)
(in progress) Graph Algorithms (Stefan, Max?)
custom expanders, e.g. with dynamic rel-type suffixes and prefixes
√ Path Finding / Expansion (Kees)
Use Cypher as scripting language {cypher:"RETURN a*10+b",params:{a:3,b:5}} for algorithms, parallelization and custom expansion
parallel(fragment, params-list, result list)
(√) Graph Refactorings (WIP)
(√) Job Queue (WIP) See BatchedWriter from Jake/Max
run/load shell scripts apoc.load.shell(path)
apox.save.dump() whole database, dump("statement"), dump("", "data/import/file") dump("", "URL TO PUT"), formats - binary(packstream), human readable(graphml, graphjson), compression
store arbitrary objects in properties with kryo/packstream or similar serialization
Procedures in other languages (e.g. JS, JSR-223 scripting → apoc-unsafe project)
eval javascript
apoc.meta.validate(metagraph) validate a metagraph against the current graph and report violations
√ apoc.monitor.{ids,tx,store} simplar calls for the JMX info with tabular output
apoc.run.register(name, query[,params]), apoc.run.named(name,[params])
apoc.create.graph(nodes,rels,data-map) → {nodes:[], rels:[], data:{}} a graph data structure, e.g. for rendering, export, validation, …

"APOC" Name history

Apoc was the technician and driver on board of the Nebuchadnezzar in the Matrix movie. He was killed by Cypher.

APOC was also the first bundled A Package Of Components for Neo4j in 2009.

APOC also stands for "Awesome Procedures On Cypher"
