Is there a way to wipe an entire Neo4j database via the REST API?


I'm using the Neography gem to interact with a Neo4j database through the REST API. I don't see any way in Neography itself (though if it's there, I'd love to use it!), nor have I been able to find by searching on Google whether this is possible directly through the REST API itself. Does anyone out there with Neo4j experience happen to know?


Solution

  • With Neography, you can send this Gremlin script:

    @neo = Neography::Rest.new
    @neo.execute_script("g.clear()") 
    

    to remove all the nodes and relationships.
