Cyanide.Cypher

Cypher query builder is a lightweight and intuitive C# library designed to construct Cypher queries programmatically for use with Neo4j graph database. It simplifies query creation by providing a fluent and type-safe API, allowing developers to focus on query logic rather than string concatenation.

Features

  • Fluent query builder: Easily construct Cypher queries using a fluent API.
  • Customizable general clauses / subclauses: Support for the following Cypher clauses:
    • MATCH,OPTIONAL MATCH
    • CREATE
    • RETURN
    • WHERE (IS NOT NULL,IS NULL, OR,XOR,NOT)
    • WITH (functions toUpper,count)
    • SKIP
    • LIMIT
    • SET
    • SKIP
    • REMOVE
    • ORDER BY
    • DELETE,DETACH DELETE
    • UNION,UNION ALL
  • Customizable administrative clauses: Support for the following Cypher clauses (limited support):
    • SHOW CURRENT USER,SHOW USERS
    • SHOW DATABASE,SHOW DATABASES
    • CREATE USER,CREATE OR REPLACE USER
    • CREATE DATABASE
    • START DATABASE
    • STOP DATABASE
    • ALTER DATABASE
    • DROP DATABASE

More information about clauses is available an official site

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • .NET 8 or higher.
  • A running instance of a Neo4j database:
    • version 4.4

Usage

See more details about all clauses with the project link.

Create a general builder

using Cyanide.Cypher.Builders;
using Cyanide.Cypher.Builders.Queries.General;

IQuery queryBuilder = Factory.QueryBuilder()

Sample

var resultQuery = _queryBuilder
    .Match(q =>
        q.WithNode(new Entity("Person", "a", [new Field("name", "'Martin Sheen'")]))
    )
    .Return(q =>
        q.WithField("name", "a")
    )
    .Build();

Output:

MATCH (a:Person {name: 'Martin Sheen'}) RETURN a.name

Create an administrative builder

using Cyanide.Cypher.Builders;
using Cyanide.Cypher.Builders.Queries.Admin;

IAdminQuery adminQueryBuilder = Factory.AdminQueryBuilder();

Sample

var resultQuery = _adminQueryBuilder
    .Show(q =>
        q.WithDatabases()
    )
    .Build();

Output:

SHOW DATABASES
