Neo4j 4.1 in Docker

Getting Neo4j 4.1.0 to work in Docker has been a real struggle! The docker-compose file was:

version: "3"

services:
  neo4j:
    image: neo4j
    container_name: neo4j
    ports:
      - 7474:7474
      - 7687:7687
    environment:
      - "NEO4J_AUTH=none"

Note that authentication has been turned off, so just login with a blank username and password.

The browser kept returning:


WebSocket connection failure. Due to security constraints in your web browser, the reason for the failure is not available to this Neo4j Driver. Please use your browsers development console to determine the root cause of the failure. Common reasons include the database being unavailable, using the wrong connection URL or temporary network problems. If you have enabled encryption, ensure your browser is configured to trust the certificate Neo4j is configured to use. WebSocket `readyState` is: 3

To solve this, when you login change neo4j:// to bolt://

Python libraries on an air-gapped machine

The Problem Development and test clusters may be air-gapped so that client data or sensitive software under development is less likely to be leaked. This can cause problems when trying to install libraries, e.g. for Python-based software, especially if the cluster has an old version of a Linux OS installed. The Solution Setup Python's pip on the remote machine On an Internet-enabled machine, download the Wheel file for pip from  https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip , such as pip-9.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl. Copy the Wheel file (e.g. pip-9.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl) to the remote machine, e.g. using scp: scp pip-9.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl user@host:/path On the remote machine: python pip-9.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip install --no-index pip-9.0.1-py2.py3-none-any.whl pip --version # this should display the version number if correctly installed Download the required libraries On an Internet-enabled machine, download the library and its d...

Getting started with Kafka and Kafka Tool

This provides a quick introduction to setting up a local Kafka instance and using Kafka Tool to view the messages. The initial part of the Kafka tutorial is adapted slightly from  http://kafka.apache.org/quickstart.html . The following are steps for: Downloading and unpacking Apache Kafka in Linux Starting the Zookeeper and Kafka servers Creating a new topic Adding and viewing messages using the command line tools Use Kafka Tool to view the messages in a topic Step 1: Download Kafka cd ./Downloads/ wget http://mirror.catn.com/pub/apache/kafka/0.10.0.0/kafka_2.11-0.10.0.0.tgz tar -zxf kafka_2.11-0.10.0.0.tgz cd kafka_2.11-0.10.0.0 Step 2: Start the Zookeeper and Kafka servers Check the Kafka port in zookeeper.properties by looking at clientPort (typically 2181) in config/zookeeper.properties Start Zookeeper with: bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh config/zookeeper.properties and then start Kafka: bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties ...

Communicating between a Windows laptop and the Windows Mobile PDA using sockets

Introduction Having successfully installed Python on my Windows Mobile PDA I wanted to investigate if I could communicate between my Windows XP machine and my PDA using sockets. I used Cygwin to act as a Linux emulator, although there are Windows-based Python solutions, such as Enthought's Pylab . Step One: Communication between processes on the same machine As a first step, try communication between processes on a single machine. I used the command ipconfig in a Windows command prompt to determine that my IP address is 192.168.1.64. To create the server, I used the following Python code, which is largely from http://www.devshed.com/c/a/Python/Sockets-in-Python/1/ . Create a file called server.py with the following contents: #! /usr/bin/env python import socket mySocket = socket.socket (socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) mySocket.bind (( '192.168.1.64', 1200 )) mySocket.listen (1) while True: channel, details = mySocket.accept() print 'Opened a connection with...
