Automates installing Neo4j on an EC2 Linux system, optionally creating the EC2 machine also.
This module will install Neo4j, and its dependencies (e.g. a JVM). It's designed to run on a server and expose the REST API over the network.
- Installs Neo4j community from stable Debian packages
- Choose OpenJDK or Oracle JVM
- Daily cold backup to an Amazon EBS volume (defaults to /dev/xvdj)
- Will optionally generate EC2 machine, EBS volume, static IP, etc.
(for those new to Amazon EC2)
This fork of the neo4j puppet configuration has been tested on 04-02-2013 and is working perfectly.
Follow the instruction in the CloudFormation notes, except use this as the stack template:
http://s3.amazonaws.com/acquaintable/puppet/cf_template.json (copy it)
(for people who are comfortable with Ubuntu and/or EC2)
-
Aquire a fresh Ubuntu machine (virtual, cloud or bare metal)
-
Run a shell on it, and apply the commands below (you can paste them directly in)
wget https://raw.github.com/acquaintable/neo4j-puppet/master/go
chmod +x go
sudo ./go true bob bob123 #accepts Oracle license, sets a username and password
- Go to the water cooler.
- Come back.
- Visit http://your machine's IP:7474/db/data to see your Neo4j endpoint.
