我有一个树结构，如node（1） - ＆gt; node（2） - ＆gt; node（3）。我将name作为用于检索节点的属性。
给定节点说节点（3），我想检索节点（1）。
查询已尝试：
MATCH（p：Node） - [：HAS *] - ＆gt;（c：Node）WHERE c.name =“node 3”RETURN p LIMIT 5
但是，无法获得节点1.
答案 0 :(得分：2)
您的查询不仅会返回＆＃34;节点1＆＃34;，而且它至少应该包含一个包含它的路径。可以过滤路径只能让一个遍历到根目录的路径，但是：
MATCH (c:Node {name: "node 3"})<-[:HAS*0..]-(p:Node)
// The root does not have any incoming relationship
WHERE NOT (p)<-[:HAS]-()
RETURN p
注意使用0长度，它匹配所有情况，包括起始节点 根目录的情况。
有趣的事实：即使你有一个Node：name的索引，也不会被使用（除非你使用Neo4j 3.1，它似乎至少从3.1 Beta2开始修复）而你必须明确指定它。
MATCH (c:Node {name: "node 3"})<-[:HAS*0..]-(p:Node)
USING INDEX c:Node(name)
WHERE NOT (p)<-[:HAS]-()
RETURN p
在第一个查询上使用PROFILE（使用数字id属性而不是name）：
