[On Ubuntu 18.04] I have (and am constrained to use) janusgraph to create a persona repository. I will be using a graphDB, largely because persona relationships are as important as persona attributes and the structure needs to be fluid. I need to create a Node.js application (+ pug & stylus eventually) to do CRUD operations on the data in the graphDB but I don't understand how to connect the client to the server. (Research has shown solutions for this problem but only with different components in place - Neo4j, OrientDB, etc)
I can start gremlin-server successfully and then I have tried creating a gremlin-console connection such as the following
/opt/janusgraph-0.2.2-hadoop2/bin/gremlin.sh /opt/janusgraph-0.2.2-hadoop2/conf/gremlin-server/gremlin-server.yaml
where the yaml looks like this:
(As well as localhost, I also tried the host's specific IP address, and both options with and without the square brackets, but with similar results)
host: [localhost]

Clearly, I've assumed or configured something(s) incorrectly, even in the console to server yaml and I don't know if the same yaml file would work for a Node.js client to connect.
I think I want the console connection so I can import the starter data from a graphml file and thereafter create new entries, query them, update them & delete them from the front end Node.js application.
What do I need to do to ?
The following doesn't create any connections from Gremlin Console to Gremlin Server:
/opt/janusgraph-0.2.2-hadoop2/bin/gremlin.sh /opt/janusgraph-0.2.2-hadoop2/conf/gremlin-server/gremlin-server.yaml
gremlin.sh does not take a Gremlin Server yaml file as an argument. Simply start bin/gremlin.sh and then write connect commands:
gremlin> :remote connect tinkerpop.server conf/remote.yaml
where remote.yaml points at Gremlin Server. You can read more about this in detail in a variety of places but I'll just point you to the TinkerPop reference documentation here.
