Manipulate query results
This section shows how to work with a query’s result so as to extract data in the form that is most convenient for your application.
Result as a list
By default, Driver.execute_query() returns an EagerResult object.
records, summary, keys = driver.execute_query(
"MATCH (a:Person) RETURN a.name AS name, a.age AS age",
database_="<database-name>",
)
for person in records: (1)
print(person)
# person["name"] or person["age"] are also valid
# Some summary information (2)
print("Query `{query}` returned {records_count} records in {time} ms.".format(
query=summary.query, records_count=len(records),
time=summary.result_available_after
))
print(f"Available keys are {keys}") # ['name', 'age'] (3)
| 1 | The result records come in a list. |
| 2 | A summary of execution, with metadata and information about the result. |
| 3 | The keys available in the returned rows. |
