Re: [Neo4j] Using the Neo4j Server with Ruby

[Andreas Ronge]

Well done !

Neo4j.rb actually has 3 different API:s
1. Neo4j::Node and Neo4j::Relationship - basic wrapper around java
node, property and relationship. This API could use the rest server.
2. Neo4j::NodeMixin a mapper to Ruby classes with some additions like
lucene indexing and rules.
3. Neo4j::Model - a Rails ActiveRecord like API, includes things like
validation and
support for creating in memory a graph before saving it to the
database ( object initialization matches ActiveRecord-style two-step
Model.new + Model#save creation).

I'm currently looking at using the Neo4j remote RMI component
(http://components.neo4j.org/neo4j-remote-graphdb/) which will be used
as a debug and console tool. For example. currently it's not possible
to open the rails console while the rails application is running. This
might solve that problem.

[Neo4j] Using the Neo4j Server with Ruby

[Craig Taverner]

Hi,

With all the discussions going on right now around Neography and using Ruby
to access the REST API, I decided to add a new wiki page on the Neo4j wiki
called 'Using the Neo4j Server with
Ruby'.
The name parallels the related 'Using the Neo4j Server with
Java'
where Jim runs users through some REST calls from Java, but I actually
modeled the use cases on the cURL examples in the main 'Getting Started With
Neo4j Server'
wiki page. I repeat the cURL examples using two approaches:

   - RestClient (plain REST client for Ruby)
   - Neography (neo4j-specific REST client)

I also took a little time to try and cleanup the related pages so they all
link to each other in a sensible way. Please can anyone interested take a
look at the pages and let us know if they read well, make sense, and are
easy to find from the main page.

In summary the new page is 'Using the Neo4j Server with
Ruby'.
If you start at one of the expected main entry point pages, you should be
able to find this page easily if you are looking for Ruby and accessing
through the REST API (or Neo4j Server). Main entry point I'm thinking of
are:

   - http://neo4j.org
   - http://neo4j.org/download
   - http://wiki.neo4j.org
   - http://wiki.neo4j.org/content/Getting_Started

Feedback welcome :-)

Cheers, Craig
