Neo4j connection string

Question

I am using neo4j as graph database for my research thesis, i am facing hard time connecting neo4j2.3.1 with simple jdbc connection.

Here is a very simple code that i am using to connect to neo4j.

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;

public class Main {
    Main(){
        try {
            Class.forName("org.neo4j.jdbc.Driver");
        }catch (Exception ex){

        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        try {
        Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:neo4j://localhost:7474");
        try(Statement stmt = con.createStatement()) {
            ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("MATCH (n:User) RETURN n.name");
            while(rs.next()) {
                System.out.println(rs.getString("n.name"));
            }
        }

        }catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Here is the log that shows there is some thing wrong with rest authentication scheme.

I am using neo4j2.3.1 as it comes with default authentication of username neo4j.

Answer 1

You need to import these neo4j packages,

import org.neo4j.jdbc.Driver;
import org.neo4j.jdbc.Neo4jConnection;

then try to these one,

Neo4jConnection conn;
ResultSet rs;     

public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
    final Driver driver = new Driver();   //org.neo4j.jdbc.Driver           
    final Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put("user", "your username");
    props.put("password", "your password");   
    String url="jdbc:neo4j://localhost:7474";
    conn = driver.connect(url, props); 

    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement()
    rs = stmt.executeQuery("MATCH (n:User) RETURN n.name");
        while(rs.next()) {
        System.out.println(rs.getString("n.name"));
        }                       
        }
   catch (SQLException e) {
    throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }
}
