python-rexster

:synopsis: Implements a client over Rexster (https://github.com/tinkerpop/rexster/) providing the Python developer an easy way to interact with the databases supported.

The layer follows the pyblueprints graph model interface letting the programmer work in the same way, no matter which underlying graph database is being used.

Installation

The easiest way to get python-rexster installed in your virtualenv is by:

pip install python-rexster

Usage

Connecting to a Rexster instance

from rexster import RexsterServer, RexsterGraph #Connecting to server HOST = 'http://localhost:8182' server = RexsterServer(HOST) #List graphs availbale in server server.graphs() [u'tinkergraph', u'gratefulgraph', u'tinkergraph-readonly', u'sailgraph', u'emptygraph'] #Connecting to a given graph graph = RexsterIndexableGraph(server, 'tinkergraph')
