问题
I need to make a string contain filter in Neo4J. The idea is simple.
A good example is that I need to retrieve from a database of persons all the people that contain in his name the car substring.
How can I do this?
回答1:
You can use regular expressions to match a part of a name, for example:
MATCH (n)
WHERE n.name =~ '.*car.*'
RETURN n
If you have the label 'Person' assigned to all people in your database, the query would be:
MATCH (n:Person)
WHERE n.name =~ '.*car.*'
RETURN n
For further information, see http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/stable/query-where.html#_regular_expressions

As an additional update, from neo4j 3.0 it may be more readable to use:
MATCH(n)
WHERE n.name CONTAINS 'car'
RETURN n
(Edited to include Maciej fix to my response, thank you!)
