This video shows how to install the Neo4j Development Environment on MAC.
The windows installation is very similar and requires a series of only "next" steps.
Neo4j, Cypher
Python
Flask
Py2neo
OGM (Object Graph Mapper)
Real World live server
REST API
In this section we will set up our development environment for our REST project.
We will create a virtual environment using pipenv, install the flask micro backend framework (to build our server) and install the py2neo package which will help us communicate with our Neo4j Database.
In this video we will be creating a boilerplate flask API endpoints and prepare our neo4j database for our project
Flask
Py2neo
Connecting Neoj with Flask Project
Here we will connect our neo4j graph database to our python flask code, using the py2neo package, and we will start querying our database with raw cypher queries (through python code)
This lecture covers:
Flask
Py2neo
Cypher queries
This lecture covers:
Flask
Py2neo
Cypher queries
Introduction to Object Graph Mappers and Object Mapper in general.
In this video we will refactor our flask project and split it into 2 files:
api_v1.py (Will hold the endpoints using RAW Cypher queries)
api_v2.py (Will hold the endpoints using the Object Graph Mapper queries)
To do this, we will using the flask concept called blueprints
(note that this is only a preparation for the next video, where we will be writing our v2 endpoints and we will be using the OGM to query our neo4j grpah db, instead of using raw cypher querires)
