NAME

Neo4j::Driver::Record - Container for Cypher result values

VERSION

version 0.49

SYNOPSIS

 use Neo4j::Driver;
 $session = Neo4j::Driver->new->basic_auth(...)->session;
 
 $query = 'MATCH (m:Movie) RETURN m.name, m.year';
 $records = $session->run($query)->list;
 foreach $record ( @$records ) {
   say $record->get('m.name');
 }
 
 $query .= ' ORDER BY m.year LIMIT 1';
 $record = $session->run($query)->single;
 say 'Year of oldest movie: ', $record->get(1);

DESCRIPTION

Container for Cypher result values. Records are returned from Cypher statement execution, contained within a Result. A record is a form of ordered map and, as such, contained values can be accessed by either positional index or textual key.

To obtain a record, call "fetch" in Neo4j::Driver::Result.

METHODS

Neo4j::Driver::Record implements the following methods.

get

 $value1 = $record->get('field_key');
 $value2 = $record->get(2);

Get a value from this record, either by field key or by zero-based index.

When called without parameters, get() will return the first field. If there is more than a single field, a warning in the category ambiguous will be issued.

 $value = $session->run('RETURN "It works!"')->single->get;
 $value = $session->run('RETURN "warning", "ambiguous"')->single->get;

Values are returned from Neo4j as Neo4j::Types objects and as simple Perl references / scalars. For details and for known issues with type mapping see Neo4j::Driver::Types.

data

 $hashref = $record->data;
 $value = $hashref->{field_key};

Return the keys and values of this record as a hash reference.
