Neo4j-In-Memory Server for Neo4j 3.1.x

Only for Testing

Uses the Neo4j ImpermanentGraphDatabase as Database for your Neo4j server. So should not access disk but needs more RAM as it writes / reads all the data from an in-memory filesystem abstraction.

Might be faster to start and incur less transactional overhead.

To deploy run copy.sh /path/to/neo4j-3.1.1 to build the latest version and add this bootstrap file into that server.

or unzip the provided inmemory-server-3.1.zip in your $NEO4J_HOME/lib directory.

Content of inmemory-server-3.1.zip:

• neo4j-server-3.1.1-tests.jar
• neo4j-kernel-3.1.1-tests.jar
• neo4j-io-3.1.1-tests.jar
• inmemory-3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

And restart your server, it will not keep content across restarts.

and there is an REST endpoint to delete the db content while the server is running.

curl -XDELETE http://localhost:7474/test/clean

The in-memory server will be picked up automatically.

Starts / Restarts should also be faster.
