The Neo4j REST Server - Part1: Get it going
- MartinMond 16y agoSo does that mean Neo4J can now be used in closed source projects?
- mark_l_watson 16y agoI don't think so. If the REST server is part of a larger system then I believe that the AGPL requires that the other networked software components need to be AGPLed. They do have a commercial license (I think that they charge $1K for a 1-server perpetual commercial non-AGPL license).
- al_james 16y agoHow about if the Neo4J REST component was (say) one of a few options (the others being something like FlockDB or a mysql implementation)... In effect you would need to bring your own Neo4J platform to use the larger sytem, and Neo4J would not be a core component of it.
- mark_l_watson 16y agoGood point, but I am not sure. The key thing is to respect the wishes of the authors of a package so I would just contact the Neo4j developers and ask them.
- al_james 16y agoI have posted on their mailing list. However, I guess that if you dont distribute a copy of the Neo4J package with your code, they basically have no say?
- toddstavish 16y agoAwesome. I had to build this myself! Nice to see it as a feature now.
- mark_l_watson 16y agoA cool addition to a very useful project. That said, I prefer using JRuby and Neo4j in embedded mode: the Ruby bindings are very good.
