starting questions

Open dcsan opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

this looks like a great starting repo, I had a few questions

  • does this run on a cloud install of neo4j? or just when embedded in the desktop version?

  • does it provide any visualization, or just DB connection? this is just to bootstrap making a connection maybe? any visualization is left as an exercise...

  • protocol what format does the data come back from the connection? is it raw bolt driver format or somehow serialized?

This will work with a cloud install of Neo4j - you just need to make sure you use the right protocol. If you load the app inside Desktop then it'll give you a list of projects and databases. However, if the Desktop API isn't detected then it'll just serve a login form with scheme, host, port, username and password.

Hopefully, the table on the Neo4j from JavaScript Developer Guide will answer your question on which protocol to choose. You should start with neo4j and then choose neo4j+s if you are using Neo4j Aura or have set up encryption. If you have set up encryption but are using self-signed certificates you should use neo4j+ssc.

There is no visualisation included unfortunately, you will need to put something together yourself.
