Neo4j Bolt Driver for JavaScript

The JavaScript driver for Bolt uses the websocket interface and is currently available for use within a browser context only. To use the driver, simply include the neo4j.js file within a page.

Example

// Create a Session object to contain all Cypher activity.
var session = new Session();

var statement = "MERGE (a:Person {name:'Alice'}) " +
                "MERGE (a)-[:KNOWS]->(b:Person {name:'Bob'}) " +
                "RETURN id(a), id(b)",
    parameters = {};

// Run a Cypher statement within an implicit transaction
session.run(statement, parameters,

    // Called on receipt of each RECORD
    function(record) {
        console.log("Values: " + record.join());
    },

    // Called on receipt of header summary message
    function(success, metadata) {
        if (success) {
            console.log("Fields: " + metadata["fields"].join());
        }
        else {
            console.log("FAILURE");
        }
        
    }

);

TODO

The JavaScript driver is still missing at least the following:

• Integration with node.js
• GraphDatabase and Driver classes from the Session API used by other drivers
• Ability to specify the remote database URL (currently hard-coded to bolt:localhost)
• A Transaction class
