# Neo4j Example
This is a simple set up for Next using Neo4j Database with api routes. 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](#step-3-set-up-environment-variables), deploy the example using [Vercel](https://vercel.com?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example):
[![Deploy with Vercel](https://vercel.com/button)](https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-neo4j&project-name=with-neo4j&repository-name=with-neo4j&env=NEO4J_URI,NEO4J_USER,NEO4J_PASSWORD&envDescription=Required%20to%20connect%20the%20app%20with%20a%20Neo4j%20database&envLink=https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples/with-neo4j%23step-3-set-up-environment-variables)
## How to use
Execute [`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app) with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/init), [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/create/), or [pnpm](https://pnpm.io) to bootstrap the example:
```bash
npx create-next-app --example with-neo4j with-neo4j-app
```
```bash
yarn create next-app --example with-neo4j with-neo4j-app
```
```bash
pnpm create next-app --example with-neo4j with-neo4j-app
```
## Configuration
### Step 1. Create a Neo4j database
First, you'll need a Neo4j database. [Neo4j Desktop](https://neo4j.com/download/) and [Neo4j Online Sandbox](https://neo4j.com/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:
```bash
:play movie-graph
```
Also included is a Cypher [movie sample](./movie-sample.md) 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):
```bash
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](https://vercel.com?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example) ([Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment)).
### Deploy Your Local Project
To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and [import to Vercel](https://vercel.com/new?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=next-example).
**Important**: When you import your project on Vercel, make sure to click on **Environment Variables** and set them to match your `.env.local` file.
