Slim Application Configuration
Before diving into the code examples, you need to update the configuration for the Slim application. In Eclipse (or the
IDE you are using), open the file
{PROJECTROOT}/app/service/AppConfig.php
and edit the GraphStory connection
string information. If you are using a free account from graphstory.com, you will change the username, password and
URL in Listing 8-14 with the one provided in your graph console on graphstory.com.
Listing 8-14.
Database Connection Settings for a Remote Service such as Graph Story
$neo4jClient = new Everyman\Neo4j\Client('someurl.graphstory.com', 7473);
$neo4jClient->getTransport()->useHttps()->setAuth('username', 'password');
If you have installed a local Neo4j server instance, you can modify the configuration to use the local address and
port that you specified during the installation, similar to the example shown in Listing 8-15.
Listing 8-15.
Database Connection Settings for Local Enviroment
$neo4jClient = new Everyman\Neo4j\Client('localhost', 7474);
Once the environment is properly configured and started, you can open a browser to the url,
http://
practicalneo4j-PHP
, and you should see a page like the one shown in Figure
