Casting a Node to a c# object

I know this is old, but the way I implement it is like this:

var result = await _session.RunAsync("MATCH (u:User) RETURN u");
        return await result.ToListAsync(record =>
        {
            var node = record["u"].As<INode>();
            return JsonSerializer.Deserialize<User>(
                JsonSerializer.Serialize(node.Properties)
            ) ?? new User();
        });

You could also write an extension method on INode for something like this:

public static T ToObject<T>(this INode node)
    {
        return System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Deserialize<T>(
                System.Text.Json.JsonSerializer.Serialize(node.Properties)
            ) ?? default;
    }

Then, you just call it like this:

var node = record[0].As<INode>();
var user = node.ToObject<User>();
