Yes, Downloading, untar , adjust config and start via the scripts is the best way to run the server, this is what the QA tests do, too. What does the following mean? == == \,,,/ == (o o) == -oOOo-(_)-oOOo- == == Available variables: == g =

Daniel, the console in the webadmin shows you that g is bound to the Neo4j Server graph instance, and automatically injected for you, together with the out variable to direct possible output from your script to. REST is right now the best way to interact with the server. Alas, there is the Neo4j

Hey, Am I really being that hyperbolic? The deployment tools we have are superb and simple to use. I just don't _want_ to do any prep work outside my project folder in order to test my code. The embedded db made me think it's possible (first time I'd ever dealt with one). (= Understood.

Hi, Firstly if you're going to use the server, then *use the server* rather than wrapping your own. The server is built and tuned for production use cases. The WrappingNeoServerBootstrapper type can be used to wrap an existing instance of a database in server clothing. The use case for this,

So, using an embedded db is the only way to if you want one-shot deployment? It might be worth it to see how difficult it would be to write that component as a plugin to the build tool I use (Cake). If you use it that way, I'd advise you to do a lot of performance testing. I'd love to look
