I search the longest path of my graph and I want to count the number of distinct nodes of this longest path.
I want to use count(distinct())
I tried two queries.
First is
match p=(primero)-[:ResponseTo*]-(segundo)
with max(length(p)) as lengthPath
match p1=(primero)-[:ResponseTo*]-(segundo)
where length(p1) = lengthPath
return nodes(p1)
The query result is a graph with the path nodes.
But if I tried the query
match p=(primero)-[:ResponseTo*]-(segundo)
with max(length(p)) as lengthPath
match p1=(primero)-[:ResponseTo*]-(segundo)
where length(p1) = lengthPath
return count(distinct(primero))
The result is
count(distinct(primero))

How can I use count(distinct()) over the node primero.
Node Primero has a field called id.
You should bind at least one of those nodes, add a direction and also consider a path-limit otherwise this is an extremely expensive query.
match p=(primero)-[:ResponseTo*..30]-(segundo)
with p order by length(p) desc limit 1
unwind nodes(p) as n
return distinct n;

In my project I need to count my node size. Node size is amount of connections with other nodes until depth of 2.
Currently I'm able to do so with two queries:
1. Get ids of all nodes with certain labels:
MATCH (n:Target) RETURN n.Key WHERE <some_where_logic_here>
2. Use returned list of Keys for count
MATCH (n)-[r *0..2]-(b) WHERE n.Key in {keyList} RETURN n.Key as targetId, count(r) as cnt
This works however I wonder if I can get same results with only one query? (like sub select in SQL)
Thanks
Can you try this?
MATCH (n:Target)
WHERE <some_condition>
WITH n
MATCH (n)-[r *0..2]-(b)
RETURN n.Key as targetId, count(r) as cnt
You should be able to do everything with one MATCH. For example:
MATCH (n:Target)
WHERE <some_where_logic_here> AND n.Key in $keyList
RETURN n.Key as targetId, SIZE((n)-[*0..2]-()) as cnt
How can I know how many nodes and edges are involved in a MATCH? Is there another way besides Explain / Profile Match?
If you mean how many nodes are matched in a path, such as a variable-length path, then you can assign a path variable for this:
MATCH p = (k:Person {name:'Keanu Reeves'})-[*..8]-(t:Person {name:'Tom Hanks'})
WITH p LIMIT 1
RETURN p, length(p) as pathLength, length(p) + 1 as numberOfNodesInPath
You can also use nodes(p) and relationships(p) to get the collection of nodes and relationships that make up the path, and you can use size() on those collections to get their size.
There exists the COUNT() function of Cypher that allows you to count the number of elements. As for example in this query:
MATCH (n)
RETURN COUNT(n);
This query will count all nodes in your database.
You can find more information in the cypher manual, under the aggregating functions. Check it out.
The following Cypher snippet should return the number of distinct nodes and relationships found by any given MATCH clause. Just replace <your code here> with your MATCH pattern.
MATCH <your code here>
WITH COLLECT(NODES(p)) AS ns, SUM(SIZE(RELATIONSHIPS(p))) AS relCount
UNWIND ns AS nodeList
UNWIND nodeList AS node
RETURN COUNT(DISTINCT node) AS nodeCount, relCount;
I want to make a cypher query that do below tasks:
there is a given start node, and I want to get all related nodes in 2 hops
sort queried nodes by hops asc, and limit it with given number
and get all relations between result of 1.
I tried tons of queries, and I made below query for step 1, 2
MATCH path=((start {eid:12018})-[r:REAL_CALL*1..2]-(end))
WITH start, end, path
ORDER BY length(path) ASC
RETURN start, collect(distinct end)[..10]
But when I try to get relationships in queried path with below query, it returns all relationships in the path :
MATCH path=((start {eid:12018})-[r:REAL_CALL*1..2]-(end))
WITH start, end, path
ORDER BY length(path) ASC
RETURN start, collect(distinct end)[..10], relationships(path)
I think I have to match again with result of first match instead of get relationships from path directly, but all of my attempts have failed.
How can I get all relationships between queried nodes?
Any helps appreciate, thanks a lot.
[EDITED]
Something like this may work for you:
MATCH (start {eid:12018})-[rels:REAL_CALL*..2]-(end)
RETURN start, end, COLLECT(rels) AS rels_collection
ORDER BY
REDUCE(s = 2, rs in rels_collection | CASE WHEN SIZE(rs) < s THEN SIZE(rs) ELSE s END)
LIMIT 10;
The COLLECT aggregation function will generate a collection (of relationship collections) for each distinct start/end pair. The LIMIT clause limits the returned results to the first 10 start/end pairs, based on the ORDER BY clause. The ORDER BY clause uses REDCUE to calculate the minimum size of each path to a given end node.

I have the following query:
MATCH (n)
WHERE (n:person) AND n.id in ['af97ab48544b'] // id is our system identifier
OPTIONAL MATCH (n)-[r:friend|connected|owner]-(m)
WHERE (m:person OR m:dog OR m:cat)
RETURN n,r,m
This query returns all the persons, dogs and cats that have a relationship with a specific person. I would like to turn it over to receive all the nodes & relationships that NOT includes in this query results.
If it was SQL it would be
select * from graph where id NOT IN (my_query)
I think that the OPTIONAL MATCH is the problematic part. I How can I do it?
Any advice?
Thanks.
-- Important Edit --
Hey guys, sorry for changing my question but my requirements has been changed. I need to get the entire graph (all nodes and relationships) connected and disconnected except specific nodes by ids. The following query is working but only for single id, in case of more ids it isn't working.
MATCH (n) WHERE (n:person)
OPTIONAL MATCH (n)-[r:friend|connected|owner]-(m) WHERE (m:person OR m:dog OR m:cat)
WITH n,r,m
MATCH (excludeNode) WHERE excludeNode.id IN ['af97ab48544b']
WITH n,r,m,excludeNode WHERE NOT n.id = excludeNode.id AND (NOT m.id = excludeNode.id OR m is null)
RETURN n,m,r
Alternatively I tried simpler query:
MATCH (n) WHERE (n:person) AND NOT n.id IN ['af97ab48544b'] return n
But this one does not returns the relationships (remember I need disconnected nodes also).
How can I get the entire graph exclude specific nodes? That includes nodes and relationships, connected nodes and disconnected as well.
try this:
match (n) where not n.id = 'id to remove' optional match (n)-[r]-(m)
where not n.id in ['id to remove'] and not m.id in ['id to remove']
return n,r,m
You've gotta switch the 'perspective' of your query... start by looping over every node, then prune the ones that connect to your person.
MATCH (bad:person) WHERE bad.id IN ['af97ab48544b']
WITH COLLECT(bad) AS bads
MATCH path = (n:person) - [r:friend|:connected|:owner] -> (m)
WHERE n._id = '' AND (m:person OR m:cat OR m:dog) AND NOT ANY(bad IN bads WHERE bad IN NODES(path))
RETURN path
That said, this is a problem much more suited to SQL than to a graph. Any time you have to loop over every node with a label, you're in relational territory, the graph will be less efficient.
http://console.neo4j.org/r/z1iafh is it possible to return n.name in order so it would be CREATE (node_name); without adding new properties to nodes? I see that there is a sequence in which nodes in this test database are connected to each other, so i am interested is it possible to somehow het this sequence.
START n=node(*) MATCH (n)-[r:CREATE_NODE_COMMAND]->(m) RETURN n
First you need to declare a path identifier, then add depth and lastly you can order by path length :
START n=node(*) MATCH p=(n)-[r:CREATE_NODE_COMMAND*..10]->(m)
ORDER BY length(p)
LIMIT 1
RETURN nodes(p)
