Hi folks, I have come over the problem of importing data form XML files a lot lately. There are 2 approaches that emerged after discussions with Craig Taverner:
1. Write a generic utility: take the XML DOM tree and directly put it as-is into Neo4j, then later write code to connect the interesting nodes to your domain, maybe discard the DOM tree after that. 2. Write a specific domain parser: Filter out interesting info with e.g. XPath, then create only the relevant information as a graph in Neo4j. Now, 1) sounds like a generic import utility that would be very handy. OTOH, I wonder how common the problem is and what you guys would prefer, 1) or 2)? -- Cheers, /peter neubauer COO and Sales, Neo Technology GTalk: neubauer.peter Skype peter.neubauer Phone +46 704 106975 LinkedIn http://www.linkedin.com/in/neubauer Twitter http://twitter.com/peterneubauer http://www.neo4j.org - Relationships count. http://www.linkedprocess.org - Distributed computing on LinkedData scale _______________________________________________ Neo mailing list [email protected] https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
