Cypher Sleuthing: Dealing with Dates, Part 1` is a blog post about working with dates and time in Neo4j using Cypher. The author discusses the complexities of standard measures of time and how they can vary depending on daylight savings time, geographies, and calendars. They then dive into Cypher's date formats, including instant types such as `date`, `datetime`, and `time`, which are based on the ISO 8601 format. The post covers various scenarios for converting epoch Unix time values and strings in non-ISO8601 formats to Neo4j-supported temporal values using APOC library procedures. It also touches on multi-conversions and wrapping conversions together to achieve desired results. Finally, it concludes with a discussion of the utility functions available in the APOC library for working with dates and times in Neo4j.
