Usage ### Starting the Server #### Option 1: Command Line ```bash # Build the server cd cmd/nornicdb-bolt go build # Start with defaults (port 7687) ./nornicdb-bolt # Start on custom port ./nornicdb-bolt -port 7688 # Custom data directory ./nornicdb-bolt -data ./mydata ``` #### Option 2: Programmatic ```go package main import ( "context" "github.com/orneryd/nornicdb/pkg/bolt" "github.com/orneryd/nornicdb/pkg/cypher" "github.com/orneryd/nornicdb/pkg/storage" ) func main() { // Create storage store := storage.NewMemoryEngine() // Create Cypher executor cypherExec := cypher.NewStorageExecutor(store) // Wrap for Bolt executor := &MyBoltExecutor{cypher: cypherExec} // Configure server config := &bolt.Config{ Port: 7687, MaxConnections: 100, ReadBufferSize: 8192, WriteBufferSize: 8192, } // Start server server := bolt.New(config, executor) if err := server.ListenAndServe(); err != nil { panic(err) } } // MyBoltExecutor implements bolt.QueryExecutor type MyBoltExecutor struct { cypher *cypher.StorageExecutor } func (m *MyBoltExecutor) Execute(ctx context.Context, query string, params map[string]any) (*bolt.QueryResult, error) { result, err := m.cypher.Execute(ctx, query, params) if err != nil { return nil, err } return &bolt.QueryResult{ Columns: result.Columns, Rows: result.Rows, }, nil } ``` ### Connecting with Neo4j Drivers #### Python ```python from neo4j import GraphDatabase # Connect to NornicDB driver = GraphDatabase.driver("bolt://localhost:7687") with driver.session() as session: # Create a node result = session.run( "CREATE (n:Person {name: $name, age: $age}) RETURN n", name="Alice", age=30 ) print(result.single()[0]) # Query nodes result = session.run("MATCH (n:Person) RETURN n.name, n.age") for record in result: print(f"{record['n.name']}: {record['n.age']}") driver.close() ``` #### JavaScript/TypeScript ```javascript const neo4j = require('neo4j-driver'); // Connect to NornicDB const driver = neo4j.driver( 'bolt://localhost:7687', neo4j.auth.basic('', '') // Auth not required yet ); const session = driver.session(); try { // Create a node const result = await session.run( 'CREATE (n:Person {name: $name, age: $age}) RETURN n', { name: 'Bob', age: 25 } ); console.log(result.records[0].get('n')); // Query nodes const queryResult = await session.run('MATCH (n:Person) RETURN n'); queryResult.records.forEach(record => { console.log(record.get('n')); }); } finally { await session.close(); } await driver.close(); ``` #### Go ```go package main import ( "context" "fmt" "github.com/neo4j/neo4j-go-driver/v5/neo4j" ) func main() { // Connect to NornicDB driver, err := neo4j.NewDriverWithContext( "bolt://localhost:7687", neo4j.NoAuth(), ) if err != nil { panic(err) } defer driver.Close(context.Background()) ctx := context.Background() session := driver.NewSession(ctx, neo4j.SessionConfig{}) defer session.Close(ctx) // Create a node result, err := session.Run(ctx, "CREATE (n:Person {name: $name, age: $age}) RETURN n", map[string]any{"name": "Charlie", "age": 28}, ) if err != nil { panic(err) } if result.Next(ctx) { node := result.Record().Values[0] fmt.Printf("Created: %v\n", node) } // Query nodes result, _ = session.Run(ctx, "MATCH (n:Person) RETURN n", nil) for result.Next(ctx) { fmt.Println(result.Record().Values[0]) } } ``` #### Java ```java import org.neo4j.driver.*; public class NornicDBExample { public static void main(String[] args) { // Connect to NornicDB Driver driver = GraphDatabase.driver( "bolt://localhost:7687", AuthTokens.none() ); try (Session session = driver.session()) { // Create a node Result result = session.run( "CREATE (n:Person {name: $name, age: $age}) RETURN n", Values.parameters("name", "David", "age", 35) ); System.out.println(result.single().get("n")); // Query nodes result = session.run("MATCH (n:Person) RETURN n"); while (result.hasNext()) { System.out.println(result.next().get("n")); } } driver.close(); } } ``` ### Transaction Support ```python from neo4j import GraphDatabase driver = GraphDatabase.driver("bolt://localhost:7687") with driver.session() as session: # Explicit transaction tx = session.begin_transaction() try: tx.run("CREATE (n:Person {name: 'Eve'})") tx.run("CREATE (n:Person {name: 'Frank'})") tx.commit() print("Transaction committed") except Exception as e: tx.rollback() print(f"Transaction rolled back: {e}") ``` ##
