How to loop over an object in neo4j using cypher

Neo4j Graph Platform Cypher
1

Hi i am using nodejs with neo4j-driver and i create relations like this (USER-[ values from the object ]->SUBREDDIT)

Username is predefined so this isn't a problem but the subreddit name and values of relations is inside the object.

The object is really huge so i would prefer use some cypher magic to loop over this object and create relations, bad i have no idea how to do it.

I am also wondering if this is good approach to do that or if it is more efficient to just loop over this object in JavaScript and make more queries

Since you didn't provide any real details about how "username is predefined", I can only help you get kinda there.

apoc.load.json.

CALL apoc.load.json('yourBigJsonBlob.file-or-uri') YIELD value
UNWIND [k IN KEYS(value) | value[k]] AS obj
MERGE (s:Subreddit {name: obj.sub})

// ... find the user, then...

MERGE (user)-[r:SUBS_TO]->(s)
SET r = obj
