Py2neo
======

** **Please now consider this project to be EOL. There will be no more updates. It is recommended to use the official Neo4j drivers instead.** **

** **For archival purposes, ownership of Py2neo has now been officially transferred to Neo4j. In return, Neo4j have very kindly made a generous donation to The Bone Cancer Research Trust . The new project home is at . I am hugely grateful to everyone who has contributed to and used this project over the years. --Nigel** **

The version history of py2neo on PyPI got lost.
If you need an older version, you can install |py2neo-history|_ instead.

**Py2neo** is a client library and toolkit for working with `Neo4j `_ from within `Python `_ applications.
The library supports both Bolt and HTTP and provides a high level API, an OGM, admin tools, a Cypher lexer for Pygments, and many other bells and whistles.

Command line tooling has been removed from the library in py2neo 2021.2.
This functionality now exists in the separate **ipy2neo** project.

As of version 2021.1, py2neo contains full support for routing, as exposed by a Neo4j cluster.
This can be enabled using a ``neo4j://...`` URI or by passing ``routing=True`` to a ``Graph`` constructor.

Installation & Compatibility
----------------------------

To install the latest release of py2neo, simply use:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install py2neo

The following versions of Python and Neo4j (all editions) are supported:

.. list-table::
:header-rows: 1

* - Neo4j
- Python 3.5+
- Python 2.7
* - 4.4
- |test-neo44-py35+|
- |test-neo44-py27|
* - 4.3
- |test-neo43-py35+|
- |test-neo43-py27|
* - 4.2
- |test-neo42-py35+|
- |test-neo42-py27|

- |test-neo35-py35+|
- |test-neo35-py27|
* - 3.4
- |test-neo34-py35+|
- |test-neo34-py27|

Note that py2neo is developed and tested under **Linux** using standard CPython distributions.
While other operating systems and Python distributions may work, support for these is not available.

Quick Example
-------------

To run a query against a local database is straightforward::

>>> from py2neo import Graph
>>> graph = Graph("bolt://localhost:7687", auth=("neo4j", "password"))
>>> graph.run("UNWIND range(1, 3) AS n RETURN n, n * n as n_sq")
n | n_sq
-----|------
1 | 1
2 | 4
3 | 9

Releases & Versioning
---------------------

As of 2020, py2neo has switched to `Calendar Versioning `_, using a scheme of ``YYYY.N.M``.
Here, ``N`` is an incrementing zero-based number for each year, and ``M`` is a revision within that version (also zero-based).

No compatibility guarantees are given between versions, but as a general rule, a change in ``M`` should require little-to-no work within client applications,
whereas a change in ``N`` may require some work. A change to the year is likely to require a more significant amount of work to upgrade.

Note that py2neo is developed on a rolling basis, so patches are not made to old versions.
Users will instead need to install the latest release to adopt bug fixes.
