Neo4j Example with GraphQL and Apollo
This is a simple setup for Next using Neo4j Database with GraphQL and Apollo. Neo4j's Movies dataset example is used to run the example.
Deploy your own
Once you have access to the environment variables you'll need, deploy the example using Vercel:
How to use
Execute create-next-app with npm, Yarn, or pnpm to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example with-apollo-neo4j-graphql with-apollo-neo4j-graphql-app
yarn create next-app --example with-apollo-neo4j-graphql with-apollo-neo4j-graphql-app
pnpm create next-app --example with-apollo-neo4j-graphql with-apollo-neo4j-graphql-app
Configuration
Step 1. Create a Neo4j database
First, you'll need a Neo4j database. Neo4j Desktop and Neo4j Online Sandbox are good and free-to-use options.
Step 2. Add the movie graph model to the database
This example uses a database containing Movies, you can add it like so:
:play movie-graph
Also included is a Cypher movie sample query if needed.
Step 3. Set up environment variables
Next, copy the .env.local.example file in this directory to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):
cp .env.local.example .env.local
Then set each variable on .env.local to match your database URI and credentials.
Deploy on Vercel
You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
Deploy Your Local Project
To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and import to Vercel.
Important: When you import your project on Vercel, make sure to click on Environment Variables and set them to match your .env.local file.
