Hi, James,
I think the subreference nodes are, actually, regular nodes connected
to the reference node. As the reference node is the first node in the
database and it exists by default, it has the number 0 as id. So,
using de Python REST client you can access to it in the next way:
>>> gdb = GraphDatabase('http://localhost:7474/db/data')
>>> reference_node = gdb.nodes.get(0)
>>> reference_node
<Neo4j Node: http://localhost:7474/db/data/node/0>
Besides, you can use the not documented (sorry, my fault) attribute of
the GraphDatabase object:
>>> gdb.reference_node
<Neo4j Node: http://localhost:7474/db/data/node/0>
And you can build your subreference nodes on top of it. I think in the
next release of the neo4j-rest-client I will add a gdb.nodes.reference
as a convenient shorcut to access to the reference node.
Regards.
