Syndesi's Cypher Entity Manager
===============================

[](#syndesis-cypher-entity-manager)

This library provides an entity manager for Cypher data types.
This basically means, that you do not have to write create/merge/delete statements for your nodes, relations etc. per hand. Instead, you just call `$em->create($node)`, `$em->merge($node)`, `$em->delete($node)` and at the end `$em->flush()`.

- [Documentation](https://neo4j-php.github.io/cypher-entity-manager)
- [Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/syndesi/cypher-entity-manager)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To install this library, run the following code:

```
composer require syndesi/cypher-entity-manager
```

This is all, now you can use the library :D

Using the library
-----------------

[](#using-the-library)

```
use Syndesi\CypherDataStructures\Type\Node;
use Syndesi\CypherEntityManager\Type\EntityManager;

/**
 * note: the container should be provided by your framework. manual configuration is possible, see documentation
 * @var EntityManagerInterface $em
 */
$em = $container->get(EntityManager::class);

$node = new Node();
$node
    ->addLabel('NodeLabel')
    ->addIdentifier('id', 123)
    ->addProperty('someProperty', 'someValue')
    ->addIdentifier('id');

// create a node:
$em->create($node);
$em->flush();

// update a node:
$node->addProperty('newProperty', 'Hello world :D');
$em->merge($node);
$em->flush();

// delete a node:
$em->delete($node);
$em->flush();
```
