How to use the API getCypher ?

[Eclegv]

I would like to know how to use the public API getCypher, the parameter needed, CypherEnvironment is only exported as a Type. Is there a workaround ?

You can wrap your query in a Cypher.Raw, in this way

new Cypher.Raw((env) => {
    const movieNode = new Cypher.Node({
        labels: ["Movie"],
    });

    const matchQuery = new Cypher.Match(movieNode)
        .where(movieNode, {
            title: new Cypher.Param("The Matrix"),
        })
        .return(movieNode.property("title"));
    console.log(matchQuery.getCypher(env))
})

Although getCypher is exposed for allowing the above and is not expected to be used in another way.

Another point is that while this is doable, getCypher is not really intended to be directly used and I would recommend using env.compile within the callback of Cypher.Raw as described here
