Method Details

asObject

public String asObject()

Description copied from interface: Value

This returns a java standard library representation of the underlying value, using a java type that is "sensible" given the underlying type. The mapping for common types is as follows:

• TypeSystem.NULL() - null
• TypeSystem.LIST() - List
• TypeSystem.MAP() - Map
• TypeSystem.BOOLEAN() - Boolean
• TypeSystem.INTEGER() - Long
• TypeSystem.FLOAT() - Double
• TypeSystem.STRING() - String
• TypeSystem.BYTES() - byte[]
• TypeSystem.DATE() - LocalDate
• TypeSystem.TIME() - OffsetTime
• TypeSystem.LOCAL_TIME() - LocalTime
• TypeSystem.DATE_TIME() - ZonedDateTime
• TypeSystem.LOCAL_DATE_TIME() - LocalDateTime
• TypeSystem.DURATION() - IsoDuration
• TypeSystem.POINT() - Point
• TypeSystem.NODE() - Node
• TypeSystem.RELATIONSHIP() - Relationship
• TypeSystem.PATH() - Path

Note that the types in TypeSystem refers to the Neo4j type system where TypeSystem.INTEGER() and TypeSystem.FLOAT() are both 64-bit precision. This is why these types return java Long and Double, respectively.

Specified by:

asObject in interface Value

Overrides:

asObject in class ValueAdapter

Returns:

the value as a Java Object.

asUUID

public UUID asUUID()

Description copied from interface: Value

Returns the value as a UUID, if possible.

Specified by:

asUUID in interface org.neo4j.bolt.connection.values.Value

Specified by:

asUUID in interface Value

Overrides:

asUUID in class ValueAdapter

Returns:

the value as a UUID, if possible

as

public <T> T as(Class<T> targetClass)

Description copied from interface: Value

Maps this value to the given type providing that is it supported.

Basic Mapping

Supported destination types depend on the value Type, please see the table below for more details.

Supported Mappings

Value Type	Supported Target Types
TypeSystem.BOOLEAN()	boolean, Boolean
TypeSystem.BYTES()	byte[]
TypeSystem.STRING()	String, char, Character
TypeSystem.INTEGER()	long, Long, int, Integer, short, Short, double, Double, float, Float
TypeSystem.FLOAT()	long, Long, int, Integer, double, Double, float, Float
TypeSystem.PATH()	Path
TypeSystem.POINT()	Point
TypeSystem.DATE()	LocalDate
TypeSystem.TIME()	OffsetTime
TypeSystem.LOCAL_TIME()	LocalTime
TypeSystem.LOCAL_DATE_TIME()	LocalDateTime
TypeSystem.DATE_TIME()	ZonedDateTime, OffsetDateTime
TypeSystem.DURATION()	IsoDuration, Period (only when seconds = 0 and nanoseconds = 0 and no overflow happens), Duration (only when months = 0 and days = 0 and no overflow happens)
TypeSystem.NULL()	null
TypeSystem.LIST()	List, T[] as long as list elements may be mapped to the array component type (for example, char[], boolean[], String[], long[], int[], short[], double[], float[])
TypeSystem.MAP()	Map
TypeSystem.NODE()	Node
TypeSystem.RELATIONSHIP()	Relationship
TypeSystem.VECTOR()	Vector
TypeSystem.UNSUPPORTED()	UnsupportedType
TypeSystem.UUID()	UUID

Object Mapping

Mapping of user-defined properties to user-defined types is supported for the following value types:

• TypeSystem.NODE()
• TypeSystem.RELATIONSHIP()
• TypeSystem.MAP()

Example (using the Neo4j Movies Database):

// assuming the following Java record
public record Movie(String title, String tagline, long released) {}
// the nodes may be mapped to Movie instances
var movies = driver.executableQuery("MATCH (movie:Movie) RETURN movie")
        .execute()
        .records()
        .stream()
        .map(record -> record.get("movie").as(Movie.class))
        .toList();

Note that Object Mapping is an alternative to accessing the user-defined values in a MapAccessor. If Object Graph Mapping (OGM) is needed, please use a higher level solution built on top of the driver, like Spring Data Neo4j.

The mapping is done by matching user-defined property names to target type constructor parameters. Therefore, the constructor parameters must either have Property annotation or have a matching name that is available at runtime (note that the constructor parameter names are typically changed by the compiler unless either the compiler -parameters option is used or they belong to the cannonical constructor of java.lang.Record). The name matching is case-sensitive.

Additionally, the Property annotation may be used when mapping a property with a different name to java.lang.Record cannonical constructor parameter.

The constructor selection criteria is the following (top priority first):

1. Maximum matching properties.
2. Minimum mismatching properties.

The constructor search is done in the order defined by the Class.getDeclaredConstructors().

Only constructors that are accessible or can be made accessible using AccessibleObject.trySetAccessible() are included in the search. If multiple constructors have the same number of matching and mismatching properties, the first constructor that is accessible by default is selected.

The search finishes as soon as a constructor that is accessible by default and matches all properties is found. Otherwise, it finishes once all constructors have been visited.

At least 1 property match must be present for mapping to work.

A null value is used for arguments that don't have a matching property. If the argument does not accept null value (this includes primitive types), an alternative constructor that excludes it must be available.

The mapping only works for types with directly accessible constructors, not interfaces or abstract types.

Example with optional property (using the Neo4j Movies Database):

// assuming the following Java record
public record Person(String name, long born) {
    // alternative constructor for values that don't have 'born' property available
    public Person(@Property("name") String name) {
        this(name, -1);
    }
}
// the nodes may be mapped to Person instances
var persons = driver.executableQuery("MATCH (person:Person) RETURN person")
        .execute()
        .records()
        .stream()
        .map(record -> record.get("person").as(Person.class))
        .toList();

Types with generic parameters defined at the class level are not supported. However, constructor arguments with specific types are permitted.

Example (using the Neo4j Movies Database):

// assuming the following Java record
public record Acted(List<String> roles) {}
// the relationships may be mapped to Acted instances
var actedList = driver.executableQuery("MATCH ()-[acted:ACTED_IN]-() RETURN acted")
        .execute()
        .records()
        .stream()
        .map(record -> record.get("acted").as(Acted.class))
        .toList();

On the contrary, the following record would not be mapped because the type information is insufficient:

public record Acted<T>(List<T> roles) {}

Wildcard type value is not supported.

Type Parameters:

T - the target type to map to

Parameters:

targetClass - the target class to map to

Returns:

the mapped value
