[Neo4j] Set reference node through REST API

2011-08-27 Thread Javier de la Rosa
Hi all,

As far I know, the REST API always returns a reference node. But in
case of I delete it, there's no option to set it again through REST
API. I read in this list that you could do this in Java like next:
  graph.delete();
  newRoot = neo4j.createNode();
  neo4j.setReferenceNode(newRoot);

But I don't know the way to do this using the REST API. Even if I
don't delete it anything, I would have to be able to set the reference
node to a node of my preference.

I know that was discussed previously, but is the reference node really needed?

Regards.

No, it isn't needed.  It is very helpful as an attachment point for other 
nodes and point of entry for traversals, but it isn't required.
