neo4j使用嵌入方式示例

操作系统：windows 7

开发环境：IntelliJ IDEA 2016.1

JAVA：1.8

1 打开 IDEA，新建一个Maven的空工程

2 找到pom.xml加入所需的neo4j的maven库依赖，maven在编译时会自动去下载相关文件

<dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.neo4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>neo4j</artifactId>
            <version>3.4.0</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

3 在左边的工程目录下，展示src->main->java右键新建一个Java Class，类名EmbeddedNeo4j，复制如下代码

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.neo4j.graphdb.*;
import org.neo4j.graphdb.factory.GraphDatabaseFactory;
import org.neo4j.io.fs.FileUtils;

public class EmbeddedNeo4j
{
    private static final File databaseDirectory = new File( "target/graph.db" );
    GraphDatabaseService graphDb;

    ///申明结点标签
    private static enum Labels implements Label
    {
        PEOPLE
    }
    ///申明关系类型
    private static enum RelTypes implements RelationshipType
    {
        KNOWS
    }

    public static void main( final String[] args ) throws IOException
    {
        EmbeddedNeo4j hello = new EmbeddedNeo4j();
        hello.createDb();
        hello.shutDown();
    }

    void createDb() throws IOException
    {
        FileUtils.deleteRecursively( databaseDirectory );

        graphDb = new GraphDatabaseFactory().newEmbeddedDatabase( databaseDirectory );
        registerShutdownHook( graphDb );

        try ( Transaction tx = graphDb.beginTx() )
        {
            ///创建结点
            Node n1 = graphDb.createNode();
            n1.setProperty("n", "张三");
            n1.addLabel(Labels.PEOPLE);
            Node n2 = graphDb.createNode();
            n2.setProperty("n", "李四");
            n2.addLabel(Labels.PEOPLE);
            Node n3 = graphDb.createNode();
            n3.setProperty("n", "王五");
            n3.addLabel(Labels.PEOPLE);
            Node n4 = graphDb.createNode();
            n4.setProperty("n", "赵六");
            n4.addLabel(Labels.PEOPLE);

            ///创建关系
            n1.createRelationshipTo(n2, RelTypes.KNOWS);
            n2.createRelationshipTo(n3, RelTypes.KNOWS);
            n3.createRelationshipTo(n4, RelTypes.KNOWS);
            n4.createRelationshipTo(n1, RelTypes.KNOWS);

            tx.success();
        }
    }

    void shutDown()
    {
        System.out.println();
        System.out.println( "Shutting down database ..." );
        graphDb.shutdown();
    }

    private static void registerShutdownHook( final GraphDatabaseService graphDb )
    {
        Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook( new Thread()
        {
            @Override
            public void run()
            {
                graphDb.shutdown();
            }
        } );
    }
}

4 右键Run

编译运行后会生成target/graph.db这个文件夹

我在编译的时候出现了“Error:java: Compilation failed: internal java compiler error”这个错误，原因是：

Project Structure->Project language Level和

setting->Building，Execution，Deployment->Compiler->Java Compiler->Pre-module bytecode version下的target bytecode version不一致，将后者改为1.8就可以了

5 查看成果：

找到一个neo4j的安装目录，打开data\databases，将原来的graph.db删除再将生成的graph.db复制进去，启动neo4j可以看到刚才在代码中创建的结点及关系，如图：
