openCypher implemented in python

sPyCy

sPyCy is a python implementation of openCypher. Try it out in your browser here: https://aneeshdurg.me/spycy

The goal of sPyCy is to enable using openCypher as a frontend, or to embed openCypher in other projects. To this end, sPyCy is quite modular and several components such as the underlying graph implementation, the subgraph pattern matcher, and the expression evaluator can all be substituted with a custom implementation. See examples/ for some sample usage.

The long-term goals of this project include fully passing all openCypher TCK tests. Currently a majority of TCK tests are expected to pass. The failing tests are documented.

Some major unimplemented features are MERGE, temporal values, WHERE predicates involving patterns, existential subqueries, and CALL.

Installation

You can either install from PyPI or build sPyCy yourself. To install the pre-built wheel, run:

pip install spycy_aneeshdurg

To build it yourself, from the root of this repo, run:

# Optional - create and enter a venv
# python3 -m venv venv
# source ./venv/bin/activate # this command varies from shell to shell
pip install .

Usage:

# Example usage:
python3 -m spycy --query "CREATE (a {id: 'node0'})-[:X]->(b) return a"

# Or interactive mode:
python3 -m spycy --interactive
> CREATE (a {id: 'node0'})-[:X]->(b {id: 'node1'})
> MATCH (a)--(b) RETURN a.id, b.id
    a.id   b.id
0  node0  node1

sPcY can also be used via python:

from spycy import spycy
exe = spycy.CypherExecutor()
ids = list(range(100))
exe.exec(f"UNWIND {ids} as x CREATE ({{id: x}})")
num_nodes_gt_10 = exe.exec("MATCH (a) WHERE a.id > 10 RETURN count(a) as output")["output"]
print(f"There are {num_nodes_gt_10} node(s) with an id greater than 10")
