Orientdb open plocal database in studio

How can I have orientdb running in embedded mode in a spring boot server and have studio available as to interact with the database and perform ad-hoc-queries in the data generated by the app.

Solution

  • You have two ways of using an embedded db:

    1. just open it from the physical path, using ODatabaseDocumentTx

      new ODatabaseDocumentTx("plocal:/the/path/to/the/db")

    This will just open the db, with no additional services

    1. starting a full OrientDB server inside your application, see http://orientdb.com/docs/2.2.x/Embedded-Server.html for v 2.2

    This second option will also start an HTTP server and will expose Studio
