Neo4j: change default Browser settings

Question

I want "Do not use Bolt" checkbox being checked by default in Neo4j Browser Settings.

Setting dbms.connector.bolt.enabled=false doesn't affect this field in browser.

I'm using Neo4j 3.1.4

How can I change Browser Settings default values?

Answer 1

For now the only solution I found is to change the default settings in neo4j-browser-<version>.jar.

To change useBolt setting you need to change useBolt:!0 to useBolt:!1 in the JavaScript file located in browser/scripts folder of jar file.

This solution was tested for neo4j-browser version 2.0.0-M10.

Or alternatively you can try to clone neo4j-browser, make needed changes and build a jar file.

It would be nice to have an ability to change such settings via a configuration file.
