Examples for working with Java based Graph databases

README

This repository offers some simple project templates to get started with Graph databases. It will primarily focus on:

• Tinkerpop 3
• Neo4J
• OrientDB

It you are going to use any information and/or artifacts of this repository, please be aware of the fact that

• You need a current version of Java installed (Java 7 or better). I highly recommend using Java 8!
• You need a current version of Maven 3 installed

To test your Java version:

$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.25-b02, mixed mode)

To test your maven install (environment variable JAVA_HOME must be defined!):

$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle

$ mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.2.2 (45f7c06d68e745d05611f7fd14efb6594181933e; 2014-06-17T15:51:42+02:00)
Maven home: /usr/share/maven/apache-maven-3.2.2
Java version: 1.8.0_25, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "3.13.0-39-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

or if your JAVA_HOME links to another Java version:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle && mvn --version
