Measure Degree Centrality

[stephkoe]

Hello everybody,

I am fairly new to neo4j and created a first dataset with two types of nodes and various edges. Now I am trying to measure the degree centrality but I am not able to run the query from the guide. I am using version 4.4.5 and have these plugins isntalled and activated: APOC 4.4.0.6; Graph Data Science Library 2.0.3; Neo4jStreams 4.1.2, and Neosemantics (n10) 4.4.01.

I tried to run the follwoing query:

CALL gds.degree.stream(
graphName: String,
configuration: Map
) YIELD
nodeId: Integer,
score: Float

and I got the following error:

Neo.ClientError.Statement.SyntaxError

Invalid input ':': expected
  ","
  "AS"
  "CALL"
  "CREATE"
  "DELETE"
  "DETACH"
  "FOREACH"
  "LOAD"
  "MATCH"
  "MERGE"
  "OPTIONAL"
  "REMOVE"
  "RETURN"
  "SET"
  "UNION"
  "UNWIND"
  "USE"
  "WHERE"
  "WITH"
  <EOF> (line 5, column 9 (offset: 82))
"  nodeId: Integer,"
         ^

I would by grateful for any help or link to a step-by-step tutorial. I only found some tutorials for other algorythms (algo), which are not supported by my version.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The code you executed is not valid cypher.  It is defining the syntax of the command. ‘GraphName:String’ is stating the first parameter is named ‘grapgString’ and its type is a string. The second parameter is defined as a map. The values following ‘yield’ are defying the outputs of the procedure. 

it looks like that example is showing the syntax. I guess the intent is for you to be able to copy and paste it as your staring point. 

Look further down the page for a concrete example.

Thank you! I have looked it up and now it is working.

The problem was the wrong command as you pointed out and that I did not creat e a graph.project before using the command.
