Laravel Neo4j Neoeloquent Demo

ABOUT

This is a demo website with Laravel 5 utilizing a Neo4j graph database with NeoEloquent OGM. Goal is to make a Proof of Concept to demonstrate Laravel can be used with a Neo4j graph database backend. It is written in PHP/Laravel + jQuery / HTML / CSS (Bootstrap).

REQUIREMENTS

• PHP >= 5.5.9
• OpenSSL PHP Extension
• Mbstring PHP Extension
• Tokenizer PHP Extension
• Composer
• Git
• Neo4j database

INITIAL DEPLOYMENT

• install Neo4j. I used a docker container for this: docker run -d --publish=7474:7474 --publish=7687:7687 --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data neo4j:3.0
• install composer: curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php — –filename=composer
• ssh to the machine, go the www directory
• clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/pietheinstrengholt/laravel-neo4j-neoeloquent-demo.git .
• run composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader , use your github key when asked.
• copy the .env.example to .env and configure with the correct database settings. If localhost doesn't work, try 127.0.0.1 instead.
• change the following variables:

DB_CONNECTION=neo4j
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=7474
DB_USERNAME=neo4j
DB_PASSWORD=neo4j

• run php artisan key:generate to generate an unique key. Add this key to the .env configuration file
• deploy the database, use the following command: php artisan neo4j:migrate
• run php artisan optimize
• run php artisan cache:clear
• run mkdir -p bootstrap/cache
• run mkdir -p storage/framework/cache
• run chmod -R 777 storage/
• run composer dump-autoload
• run php artisan up

TODO

• Fix user registration (violation of primary key)
• Extend a little bit more
• Add some nice d3js visualisation
