Hi guys,

Now neoclipse is upgraded to neo4j 1.7.
Now we support connection to remote DB.

Download from:
https://github.com/neo4j/neoclipse/downloads

Please test and give me feedback.

Thanks and Regards

Great stuff, thanks a lot Radekrishna.

So any remote server, e.g like the Heroku instances can be introspected with Neoclipse ?

Does it also support authentication?

The single thing I would love to see in there:

Visualize nodes from a cypher query in the graph.
That would also include the requests for visualizing all nodes (start n=node(*) return n) and single nodes by id (start n=node(1,2,3) return n)

Hi Michael,

Thank you.
I have added support for username and password. But never tested. It would be very much appreciated if you can test the same.

However I did tested both queries on my local server. Please let me know if any issues.

Hey Radhakrishna,

Excellent job on Neoclipse - I love the connection metaphor and that you can run cypher right in there.

It'd be great if you could tidy up 2 things in packaging:

1. Could you change the downloads so that the file names are more regular? E.g. instead of neoclipse-1.7-win32.win32.x86_64.zip could you make it neoclipse-1.7-win32.x86_64.zip
2. Could we have builds for Linux and Mac too?

In terms of functionality, I've been using the 1.6 version recently to teach the Neo4j koans, and the increase/decrease traversal depth controls don't work anymore - we're stuck at traversal depth 2 permanently. Will you take that as a bug?

Cheers,

Jim

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback.
It was a beta release, as I wanted feedback from you guys if queries and graph towards remote db works fine or not. Next time I will take be careful with the naming to avoid confusion,

I think that bug is fixed, but anyway I will test again and will fix ASAP,
This bug will be fixed in the next release.

Tomorrow will fix the mac and linux versions too.

Thank you.
Kalyan

Radhakrishna,

I just tried the mac version it works great so far. Thanks a lot.

I thought with some polishing and some of the issues below addressed it would be great to do a neoclipse blog post the next week (or the week after) ?

Just some things:

- you should perhaps automatically add /db/data/ if it is not there in the URL
- a newly created db-connect is not selected in the list, so when I hit play directly afterwards it connects an older existing connection
- localhost works great
- load-time for the initial rendering of a bigger remote graph (heroku) is really long (, so we should probably limit that to the root node or at most one level of connections - how do you pull the data anyway, perhaps we should have a look at that and see where we can optimize the load code
- also navigating a remote graph (esp. heroku which is on the other side of the planet) takes too long

- we need a better handling of versions to cater for cypher calls especially for older servers (but that's a task for the rest-client)

- the cypher editor should display the number of returned rows, and also the time it took to load the data
- it should probably also pop up a new tab for each new query result (having the query as a "title" on the tab
- I would still love to be able to have a [VIZ] button which renders the query results  (nodes and rels returned) rendered in the graph view 
- it should be possible to load/save cypher files
- some basic syntax highlighting

- the flashlight search dialog - should be better integrated with the rest of the application, right now it displays a list of result nodes/rels with a random! property listed on the top (those should be either selectable or ordered consistently) but I cannot do anything with these nodes - it would be great to have them visualized in the graph too 

- but perhaps we should just drop the whole dialog in favor of cypher ?

Cheers

Michael

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your comments. They are really valuable to improve the product.
I will surly will work on these in parallel.

Regarding blog, I have that in queue. I have also started to work towards heroku to use neo4j, but some issues ( didn't able to add the add on).

Thanks once again

Kalyan

Hi, 

great news. 

What were the issues with adding the add-on? Unfortunately you have to have a valid credit card information in your heroku account (even if it isn't charged).
