Query to get Cycles for a node in a graph returns no output

[Pushkar Nagpal]

I am trying to get cycles for a node and setting a limit to cycle size but it returns no output while the same query works perfectly fine in neo4j-Cypher

Query: 

match (n:account) where n.node_id='1055' match p = (n)-[*..5]->(n) return p

This query should return paths of the cycles.

Hello Pushkar and thanks for reaching out to us

You're saying that in Neo4j, this query is doing what you expect of it? Then I wonder, where are you executing with a different behaviour? What implementation of Cypher are you using?

Hi Mats,

Thanks for replying!

I am using  openCypher-for-gremlin (https://github.com/opencypher/cypher-for-gremlin) and this query isn't returning any outputs for me, though I was able to create an alternate query to get cycles in the data which works efficiently:
 

match (m1:account{node_id:'1055'})-[t]->(m2:account) match cyclePath=(m2)-[*..4]->(m1) RETURN m1, t, nodes(cyclePath),relationships(cyclePath) as cycle

The following query returned me cycles for the specified node.

Hello Pushkar

Interesting! I can't determine that there is anything wrong in your query. I would expect the two versions you've tried to both find the same sort of cycles. I think it would be good if you would report this issue on the Cypher For Gremlin repository, because it may be a bug (unless I'm missing some detail).

Happy to hear that you were able to work around it.

Regards

Mats
