Getting Started

Once you've installed neo4django, you can configure your Django project to connect to Neo4j.

Database Setup

An example settings.py:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
        'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db', 'test_database.sqlite3')
    }
}

NEO4J_DATABASES = {
    'default' : {
        'HOST':'localhost',
        'PORT':7474,
        'ENDPOINT':'/db/data'
    }
}

If you'd like to use other Django apps built on the regular ORM in conjunction with neo4django, you'll still need to configure DATABASES with a supported database. You should also install a database router in your settings.py so the databases will play nice:

DATABASE_ROUTERS = ['neo4django.utils.Neo4djangoIntegrationRouter']

Once your project is configured, you're ready to start :doc:`writing-models` !
