roo neo4j status

I have a couple of basic prototypes running with spring data neo4j.

The technology and integration looks promising. We are using roo with our basic spring apps, and was curious about the status of the neo4j plugins for roo.

There are a couple of old threads hat spring roo for neo4j is being worked on, but not much info lately. I could be looking in the wrong place, please pardon me if that is the case.

Both spring neo4j and roo are in flux right now. With roo 1.4 and spring 1.0 out, I thought something might be happening.

Couple of quick questions:
- what is the status of spring neo4j?
- if active, which version of roo should I use with it? (latest or dev)
- if development activity is paused, which version of neo4j or roo is the target for further work .

Thanks,
Mike

The roo infrastructure currently revamped their internal APIs so that broke our current addon but will enable us in the future to integrate nosql data models into roo.
I wanted to strip down our roo addon to basic setup and installation (but I assume you already have that covered) but the roo update with the changed API stopped me from continuing on that.

Hopefully I find time to address the roo addon in July. The future roo addon will target Neo4j 1.4, Roo 1.1.4 and Spring Data Graph 1.1.

Cheers

Michael

Michael,

Thanks for the update, keep up the good work.

Hi Michael, any updates on this?

Thanks

Some of those.

The roo guys now abstracted the metadata layer, which we implemented.
There is a current 1.1.0-RELEASE which should appear in roo anytime.

And the Spring Data Graph Roo add-on is featured in Josh Longs "Getting Started with Roo" book from O'Reilly.

You might have to do:
roo> addon remove --bundleSymbolicName org.springframework.datastore.neo4j.roo.addon

and then

roo> addon search --refresh true neo

You need to setup the download security for Roo

"Use 'pgp key view' to view this key, 'pgp trust' to trust it, or 'pgp automatic
trust' to trust any keys"

Basically all the trusted Roo plugins require you to approve them on your machine. So you can use "pgp trust" or "pgp automatic trust" The first will trust just that plugin. the second will trust any plugins from then on.

So I landed on this link after trying to search for documentation on how to add the Spring-data-Neo4J add-on. However, even after doing the "pgp trust" step, I am getting an error as below:

roo> addon install id --searchResultId 01
Unsatisfied requirement(s):
---------------------------
(&(package=org.springframework.roo.addon.entity)(v ersion>=1.1.0))
org-springframework-datastore-neo4j-roo-addon


Here are my environment settings:
Sun JDK 1.6 on Mac OS X
Spring Roo 1.2.0 RELEASE version

What could be wrong here. The error message speaks about an unsatisfied dependency but does not point out which one. I am stuck. Any help would be great.

Sorry, didn't find the time to take care of the roo add-on.

Will try to fit it in somehow. It is probably the roo version it complains about as the addon was build against roo 1.1

Please ping me again the next days.

Thanks

Michael
