我正在尝试从 Neo4J 数据库中检索节点和相关节点，我还想在其中动态地将属性添加到返回的节点。我有以下模型：一个国家包含城市，我有以下示例数据：

CREATE (n:Country { identifier: '20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb', revision: '1', countryCode: 'BE', name: 'Belgium', type:'Country' });
CREATE (n:Country { identifier: '4c78a5b2-7fe6-4b8c-bd35-f2a0aa0ec160', revision: '1', countryCode: 'NL', name: 'Netherlands', type:'Country' });
CREATE (n:Country { identifier: 'aa265519-4765-477d-99f9-c65bf0c202d8', revision: '1', countryCode: 'DE', name: 'Germany', type:'Country' });

CREATE (n:City { identifier: '8147f29c-39f2-4123-9b73-298de2b871f9', revision: '1', name: 'Antwerp', type:'City' })
CREATE (n:City { identifier: '8058bfc4-9fd3-4df7-8035-0adb53da713c', revision: '1', name: 'Brussels', type:'City' })

MATCH (country:Country), (city:City)
WHERE country.identifier = '20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb' AND city.identifier = '8147f29c-39f2-4123-9b73-298de2b871f9'
CREATE (country)-[:CONTAINS]->(city)

MATCH (country:Country), (city:City)
WHERE country.identifier = '20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb' AND city.identifier = '8058bfc4-9fd3-4df7-8035-0adb53da713c'
CREATE (country)-[:CONTAINS]->(city)

我想从数据库中得到的是 Country 节点和 City 节点，但是我需要向返回的 Country 节点添加一个“city”属性，该属性包含一个标识符的数组包含的城市。而不是存储 _type 属性，我想根据节点的标签动态添加它。

目前我正在使用以下查询：

MATCH (country:Country)
OPTIONAL MATCH (country)-[:CONTAINS]-(city:City)
RETURN country {.*, city: collect( distinct city.identifier )}, city {.*, container: country.identifier}

我得到以下结果：

[
  {
    "country": {
      "city": [
        "8058bfc4-9fd3-4df7-8035-0adb53da713c"
      ],
      "name": "Belgium",
      "identifier": "20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb",
      "revision": "1",
      "countryCode": "BE",
      "type": "Country"
    },
    "city": {
      "container": "20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb",
      "identifier": "8058bfc4-9fd3-4df7-8035-0adb53da713c",
      "name": "Brussels",
      "revision": "1",
      "type": "City"
    }
  },
  {
    "country": {
      "city": [
        "8147f29c-39f2-4123-9b73-298de2b871f9"
      ],
      "name": "Belgium",
      "identifier": "20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb",
      "revision": "1",
      "countryCode": "BE",
      "type": "Country"
    },
    "city": {
      "container": "20f95f76-be40-4cff-98c8-8d045b0552eb",
      "identifier": "8147f29c-39f2-4123-9b73-298de2b871f9",
      "name": "Antwerp",
      "revision": "1",
      "type": "City"
    }
  },
  {
    "country": {
      "city": [],
      "name": "Netherlands",
      "identifier": "4c78a5b2-7fe6-4b8c-bd35-f2a0aa0ec160",
      "revision": "1",
      "countryCode": "NL",
      "type": "Country"
    },
    "city": null
  },
  {
    "country": {
      "city": [],
      "name": "Germany",
      "identifier": "aa265519-4765-477d-99f9-c65bf0c202d8",
      "revision": "1",
      "countryCode": "DE",
      "type": "Country"
    },
    "city": null
  }
]

如您所见，Belgium 节点被返回两次（我原以为它只返回一次），每次在包含的 City 上都有匹配项。我确实想返回 Country 节点，即使它们不包含城市。

我们将不胜感激

这个查询可能适合：

MATCH (country:Country)
OPTIONAL MATCH (country)-[:CONTAINS]-(city:City)
RETURN country, COLLECT(city) AS cities

结果是：
