Example of a Binderised repo running neo4j.

The neo4j server is installed into $CONDA_DIR (by default, /srv/conda), the only guaranteed writeable path outside $HOME.

Demo test code in the py/ folder.

(Since this repo also runs jupytext, if you click on the neo4j-demo.py file from the notebook server tree/ page and it will open as a notebook.)

To run a container built from this repo locally:

pip install jupyter-repo2docker

repo2docker https://github.com/psychemedia/binder-neo4j

The container also includes:

• a cypher_kernel which allows queries to be entered directly into code cells and interactive network diagrams to be displayed directly from cell query results.

• some simple IPython magic (installed from innovationOUtside/cypher_magic repo).

Broken:

• the neo4j GUI doesn't seem to work under local testing at least
