# Nest Neo4j

> Neo4j integration for Nest

## Description

This repository provides [Neo4j](https://www.neo4j.com) integration for [Nest](http://nestjs.com/).

## Installation

```
$ npm i --save nest-neo4j
```

## Quick Start

Register the Neo4j Module in your application using the `forRoot` method, passing the neo4j connection information as an object:

```ts
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { AppController } from './app.controller';
import { AppService } from './app.service';
import { Neo4jModule } from 'nest-neo4j'

@Module({
imports: [
Neo4jModule.forRoot({
scheme: 'neo4j',
host: 'localhost',
port: 7687,
username: 'neo4j',
password: 'neo'
})
],
controllers: [AppController],
providers: [AppService],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

## Querying Neo4j

The `Neo4jService` is `@Injectable`, so can be passed into any constructor:

```ts
import { Neo4jService } from 'nest-neo4j'

@Controller()
export class AppController {
constructor(private readonly appService: AppService,
private readonly neo4jService: Neo4jService
) {}

@Get()
async getHello(): Promise {
const res = await this.neo4jService.read(`MATCH (n) RETURN count(n) AS count`)

return `There are ${res.records[0].get('count')} nodes in the database`
}
}
```

## Methods

```ts
getConfig(): Neo4jConnection;
getReadSession(database?: string): Session;
getWriteSession(database?: string): Session;
read(query: string, params?: object, database?: string): Result;
write(query: string, params?: object, database?: string): Result;
```
