Example Usage
The example below will help us learn how to use this procedure.
The following creates a graph containing nodes with boolean properties representented in different formats:
CREATE (:Person {prop: 'Y', name:'A'}),
(:Person {prop: 'Yes', name:'B'}),
(:Person {prop: 'NO', name:'C'}),
(:Person {prop: 'X', name:'D'})
We want to transform some properties into a boolean, Y, Yes into true and the properties NO into false.
The other properties that don’t match these possibilities will be set as null.
The following normalizes all applicable boolean values for all nodes that have the
prop property:MATCH (n)
CALL apoc.refactor.normalizeAsBoolean(n,'prop',['Y','Yes'],['NO'])
WITH n
ORDER BY n.id
RETURN n.prop AS prop
If we execute this query, we’ll see the following result:
