Can LiveCode connect to Neo4j graph DBs?

I'm considering learning LiveCode as a means to create apps that connect to Neo4j graph databases (which I'm also learning

Does anyone know if that is possible or what would be required to do so.
Thanks

You can use the
neo4j-shell utility (under windows is
Neo4jShell.bat), it's included in every neo4j installation.
Use livecode to create a series of commands, then puts all commands in a file, for example
mycommands.cql.
then you can use:
Code: Select all
put shell("neo4j-shell -file mycommands.cql") into myresult
Myresult variable will contain any output of the launched commands. Remember to indicate the correct path to neo4j-shell (example: /home/max/downloads/neo4j/bin/neo4j-shell -file mycommands.cql )
