Connecting to FalkorDB using BOLT protocol. |
FalkorDB provides an experimental support for querying using BOLT drivers. We intend to extend the support in the future versions, the current version is not meant to be used in production. This guide will walk you through the process of connecting to FalkorDB using the BOLT protocol
Before you begin, ensure that you have a FalkorDB instance up and running. You can use our Docker image for this purpose.
docker run -p 6379:6379 -p 7687:7687 -p 3000:3000 -it -e REDIS_ARGS="--requirepass falkordb" -e FALKORDB_ARGS="BOLT_PORT 7687" --rm falkordb/falkordb:latest
- 6379 - FalkorDB
- 7687 - Bolt
- 3000 - Falkor-Browser
Additionally, install the necessary BOLT drivers:
pip install neo4j
Create a main.py file with the following content and adjust the connection uri, authentication parameters and database name according to your FalkorDB setup. This script demonstrates a simple query that returns the numbers from 1 to 10. Customize the query as needed for your specific use case.
from neo4j import GraphDatabase
driver = GraphDatabase.driver("bolt://localhost:7687", auth=("falkordb", ""))
records, summary, keys = driver.execute_query(
"UNWIND range(1, $n) AS i RETURN i",
n=10, database_="mygraph",
)
for record in records:
print(record["i"])
Execute the script by running the following command in your terminal:
bash
python main.py
