Type converting

[maroochee]

Hi, I'm starting to use neogma in my project and found out that the return value of .findMany() and QueryBuilder() seems to be different.

QueryRunner.getResultProperties is extracting the properties only

.run(neogma.queryRunner)
.then<SuccessResult<ProjectsInstance[]>>((result) => {
  return {
    type: Result.SUCCESS,
    data: QueryRunner.getResultProperties<ProjectsInstance>(result, 'project'),
  };
})

but findMany() only returns the whole instance

return await Projects.findMany({
    where: {
    },
    order: [['projectID', 'ASC'], ['projectDescription', 'ASC']],
    throwIfNoneFound: true,
    session: null,
}).then<SuccessResult<ProjectsInstance[]>>((result) => {
  return {
    type: Result.SUCCESS,
    data: result
  };
})
.catch((error) => ({
  type: Result.ERROR,
  message: error.message,
  error,
}));

is there any way to convert instance into properties only? or do it by myself? that instance has "dataValues" property so I need that data only.

[
  {
    "labels": [
      "Project"
    ],
    "__existsInDatabase": true,
    "dataValues": {
      "projectID": "prj-003",
      "projectDescription": "CCC project",
      "createdBy": "001",
      "createdOn": "1996-08-16 00:00:00.000"
    },
    "changed": {
      "projectID": false,
      "projectDescription": false,
      "createdBy": false,
      "createdOn": false
    }
  },
]

Hey, thanks for using neogma :)

Currently there is no way to support it, and you'll have to do a map to get only the dataValues.

However, some ORMs like sequelize have an option to get only the data itself, which is something I can look at :)

Released in v1.12.0. You can just pass a plain: true param to findMany and findOne and it should work as you described.
