Simple tutorial for Neo4J and using it with django + python

Question

Is there any simple tutorial for learning Neo4J. I went through its official manual and found very confusing for me since i am from mysql background. I just wanted to learn Neo4J but i am really finding a hard time. Also there is not much books available for Neo4J

Please help me with this

Solution 1

I just updated neo4django's documentation, and like to think it reads like a tutorial. I'd appreciate feedback!

Solution 2

Look at the Bulbs Quickstart tutorial (http://bulbflow.com/quickstart/). Bulbs works with any Python Web framework, including Django, Flask, and Pyramid.

Solution 3

There is a nice integration for Neo4j+Django: https://github.com/scholrly/neo4django and I notice a tutorial on github: https://github.com/johanlundberg/neo4j-django-tutorial

There are a few books in the works, covering general concepts about working with a graph database and Neo4j specifics. But they haven't yet hit the shelves.

For now, the Neo4j manual is the best material available for learning.

neo4django is super outdated. Check the updated options at:

About the tutorial you can find many free resources at the website. You can also start with Cypher, the query language:
