Using graph.run() py2neo v3 to connect to neo4j DB: How can I convert an instance of py2neo.database.Cursor class to a dictionary or list in python?
Was simple in py2neo v2 using py2neo.cypher.core.RecordList class which is what graph.cypher.execute() the equivalent to graph.run would have returned if using the previous version...
Looks like you could do with the data method:
http://py2neo.org/v3/database.html#py2neo.database.Cursor.data
This is designed for use with libraries like Pandas where you need to extract the entire result.
As pointed out by Nigel Small, you can use the .data() method to convert it into a list.
Here is how it works,
let's take for example this line of code calling graph.run, whose result is saved into tags variable:
tags = graph.run(query)
the result is a py2neo.database.Cursor class (containing a dictionary):
tags
-------------------------------
['py2neo', 'python', 'neo4j']
And by applying the .data() method, it becomes:
tags = graph.run(query).data()
whose result is a list (containing a dictionary):
[{'tags': ['py2neo', 'python', 'neo4j']}]
You can just cast it to a list :
result = session.run("MATCH (n) RETURN n")
records = list(result)
