Boltex

Build Status Inline docs Coverage Status

Elixir implementation of the Bolt protocol and corresponding PackStream protocol. Both is being used by Neo4J.

This is a very bare-bone protocol implementation. Error handling, acknowledging errors, recovering sessions etc. has to be implemented upstream.

The current version supports both version 1 and 2 of Bolt protocol. Version 2 is currently only used by Neo4j and there is no documentation available yet.
For v1 documentation see: https://boltprotocol.org/v1/

Warning: This is currently WIP and only in the wild to gather feedback!

If you want to use Boltex in production I highly recommend using connection pooling. You can either use the feature-rich Bolt.Sips or check out the example DBConnection implementation.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed as:

  1. Add boltex to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

    def deps do [{:boltex, "~> 0.5.0"}] end

  2. Ensure boltex is started before your application:

    def application do [applications: [:boltex]] end

Try it out!

Boltex.test 'localhost', 7687, "MATCH (n) RETURN n"
