​

Graph Query Integration

Direct integration with Neo4j Cypher queries for dynamic visualization:

const query = `
  MATCH (m:Member)-[r:VALIDATES]->(t:Transaction)
  WHERE t.amount > $threshold
  RETURN m, r, t
`;

nvl.render({
  query: query,
  parameters: { threshold: 10000 },
  styling: {
    nodes: {
      Member: { color: '#4CAF50', size: 15 },
      Transaction: { color: '#FF9800', size: 10 }
    },

  },
  opacity: node => node.isPrivate ? 0.3 : 1.0,
  shape: node => node.type === 'Fixie' ? 'diamond' : 'circle'
};

​

Edge Styling

const relationshipStyling = {
  width: edge => Math.log(edge.weight + 1) * 2,
  color: edge => {
    switch(edge.type) {
      case 'VALIDATES': return '#4CAF50';
      case 'TRANSFERS': return '#FF9800';
