This article is about the spring data for neo4j database. Neo4j is a popular graph database.
The Neo4j configuration is very straight forward and defines the connection setting for the application to connect to the server. Similar to the most of the other spring data modules, this is a spring configuration which can be defined as XML or Java configuration. Jan 31, 2020 Starting with version 4.0 Neo4j will support the reactive programming model. To provide this feature for the Spring (Data) community, we decided to re-create Spring Data Neo4j from scratch purely.
Spring Data Neo4j module is there which is support only imperative style and currently, it's only in support and maintenance.
Prerequisites:-
You head this article that means you at least heard about Neo4j and spring boot. below are the prerequisites
Spring Reactive Neo4j Vs
- Neo4j (https://neo4j.com/graphacademy/online-training/introduction-to-neo4j-40/)
- Installation of Neo4j on local or use Neo4j sandbox.
- Knowledge with spring data and spring boot.
- For this example, we are using JDK 11.
If you don't know anything about the above things then I will recommend you should start exploring these things and come back. Transformers armada all episodes in hindi.
In this example, I am using Neo4j sandbox environment: https://neo4j.com/sandbox/
Advantages of using SDN-Rx:

Advantages of using SDN-Rx:
- It supports both imperative and reactive development.
- Built-in OGM(Object graph mapping) and very lightweight.
- Support immutable entities for both Java and kotlin.
Maven/Gradle Dependencies:-
Right now Spring Data Neo4j Reactive starter is not yet part of the official Spring repositories so we have to add that manually, so it won't be available in the spring initializer website.
PrePare Database:-
For this article, we are using the Neo4j-standard movie graph database because it's in small size and it's available in your sandbox as well as in your local.
use this command to start:
Execute the command and deck is an interactive mode, so its seamless execution. The movie database contains a database such as a movie name, release date, crew, director of movie, a rating is given by different individuals or rating companies. The minimal schema relation could be like this
Create Project:
The best way to start with the spring boot project is start.spring.io. Create a spring boot project.
Do not choose Spring Data Neo4j here, as it will show the legacy generation of Spring Data Neo4j that has only imperative support.
Once your project is ready then add the spring data neo4j Rx dependency in your POM or build.gradle.
Configurations:
You can put here your database-specific configurations.
Domain Entity:
All our configurations are done now let us begin and define the domain entity object. As we stated we are using a movie database so we have to create Movie as a domain entity with few properties.
Entities are nodes.
In the movie entity, we defined a movie name, tagline, actors, and directors.
@Node annotation marks the given class is the managed node. @Id annotation to have a unique property and then we defined different relationships using @Relationship annotation. In the same way, we have a Person entity that contains two fields.
In these entities, we just defined one-way relation to have demonstrated things simple but you can also define an entity in such a way to fulfill two-way relationships.
Let us create a repository class then.
This is to demonstrate the reactive programming style so we used here ReactiveNeo4jRepository which is reactive repository implementation.
You can hit below endpoints to see the output:
GET http://localhost:8080/movies
DELETE http://localhost:8080/movies/The Matrix
This is it for now.

In this talk, I'll show that you don't have to abandon your favourite Spring Boot to a new and shiny thing to achieve the same result. Also I'll show how to find the balance between simplicity and productivity, improve runtime efficiency, e.g. image size, memory footprint, and startup time when using Spring Boot. |

All of these layers also provide extension points to integrate with different underlying implementations. These extension points are crucial when developing cloud native application. For example, when developing a cloud native application that needs to use cloud provider's messaging system, you may be able to avoid using implementation-specific APIs, instead, use a higher level abstraction such as Spring Integration. In this talk, we'll what these extensions points are, how to build an extension, and how we realize the benefits in the Spring Cloud GCP project. |
