You could also try to run the whole tinkerpop stack including rexter as a Neo4j Server extension.
That would be a quite interesting experiment. You can get a Neo4j-GraphDatabase instance injected in your Extension-Resource and then provide that instance to Tinkerpop to use (I don't know if Marko added hooks to actually do that, but I assume so (as there is also a gremlin instance running inside the neo4j server - which powers the Neo4j console. (Perhaps you can even get an instance of that gremlin engine injected and connect it to rexter). Just some thoughts :) Cheers Michael Am 06.06.2011 um 21:20 schrieb Eelco Hillenius: > Hi Peter, > >> Eelco, >> while REST is not a very performant way to access any low level API >> directly, there is a Java Wrapper for the Neo4j API over REST from Michael >> Hunger https://github.com/jexp/neo4j-java-rest-binding that does the Neo4j >> API over REST. > > Excellent, thanks for the pointer. > >> This could be a drop-in replacement for the embedded Neo4j implementation in >> Blueprints, but I haven't check that out.
