Replace cypher hacks with apoc functions #108

Open Powersource opened 4 years ago

Powersource commented 4 years ago

mostly thinking of/knowing about the foreach hack (grep for "FOREACH hack") which could maybe be replaced by https://neo4j.com/labs/apoc/4.1/cypher-execution/conditionals/

i think i read that some of apoc was by default included in neo4j nowadays, does that include this function?

Looking at where we've used the hack so far it's in situations that aren't super easy to test/verify if we break anything when changing it. So I'm leaning towards if it ain't broke, don't fix it for now. When needing if/else in the future though we should start using apoc though.
