This is a simple set up for Next using Neo4j Database with GraphQL and Apollo. Neo4j's Movies dataset example is used to run the example.
Once you have access to the environment variables you'll need, deploy the example using Vercel:
Execute create-next-app
with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example with-apollo-neo4j-graphql with-apollo-neo4j-graphql-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example with-apollo-neo4j-graphql with-apollo-neo4j-graphql-app
First, you'll need a Neo4j database. Neo4j Desktop and Neo4j Online Sandbox are good and free to use options.
This example uses a database containing Movies, you can add it like so:
:play movie-graph
Also included is a Cypher movie sample query if needed.
Next, copy the .env.local.example
file in this directory to .env.local
(which will be ignored by Git):
cp .env.local.example .env.local
Then set each variable on .env.local
to match your database uri and credentials.
You can deploy this app to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
To deploy your local project to Vercel, push it to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket and import to Vercel.
Important: When you import your project on Vercel, make sure to click on Environment Variables and set them to match your .env.local
file.
Alternatively, you can deploy using our template by clicking on the Deploy button below.
