HI there. Loving Neo4j, but been putting off using because was no * straightforward* way to use from PHP. I even started writing my own RESTful API, but never found the time to finish it off! However, I am excited that there is now a (semi?) official one in the works, even if it is early days.
I have started a PHP library for accessing neo4j via the REST API... I will share when its ready. I can see how most of the functionality works from the Java functional tests and the application.wadl index. However, there is no mention of any way to access neo4j's traversal features. I was wondering how this is planned to work? In my API I had something like: node/1/traverse?relationship_type=KNOWS Which would traverse from node 1 along relationship type 'KNOWS' etc... However, it started to get complex very quickly as you need separate return and stop evaluators. I suppose, the most beautiful method would to to traverse via Gremlin: /node/1/outE/i...@age>27] (obviously URI encoded) That would be dead sexy. However, I know the gremlin guys seem a little reluctant to offer a RESTful API (they seem to be stuck in their Java ways)... Whats the plan?
