neo4j-shell — a command-line tool for exploring and manipulating a graph database
Neo4j shell is a command-line shell for running Cypher queries.
There’s also commands to get information about the database.
In addition, you can browse the graph, much like how the Unix shell along with commands like cd
, ls
and pwd
can be used to browse your local file system.
The shell can connect directly to a graph database on the file system.
To access local a local database used by other processes, use the readonly mode.
Examples for remote:
neo4j-shell neo4j-shell -port 1337 neo4j-shell -host 192.168.1.234 -port 1337 -name shell neo4j-shell -host localhost -readonly
Examples for local:
neo4j-shell -path /path/to/db neo4j-shell -path /path/to/db -config /path/to/neo4j.properties neo4j-shell -path /path/to/db -readonly
