The neo4j embedded driver no longer embeds the neo4j kernel and users are
expected to add that dependency manually. We don't provide dependency
management for any of them so this commit updates the documentation to
refers to the official documentation.
Closes gh-8567
To be compatible with Gradle's plugin portal, plugins must have an
ID that uses a reverse domain name. This means that spring-boot is
not compatible.
This commit introduces a new ID, org.springframework.boot, and
deprecates the old ID.
Closes gh-6997
This commit polihes the original Neo4j contribution in several areas.
Rather than providing the packages to scan, this commit rearranges the
`EntityScan` and `EntityScanRegistrar` so that the logic can be shared
for other components. If no package is provided, scanning now defaults to
the "auto-configured" package(s) and a `@NodeEntityScan` annotation
allows to override that.
The configuration has also been updated to detect the driver based on the
`uri` property. If the embedded driver is available we use that by
default. If it is not available, we're trying to connect to a Neo4j
server running on localhost. It is possible to disable the embedded mode
or set the `uri` parameter explicitly to deviate from these defaults.
The sample no longer relies on the embedded driver for licensing reason:
rather it expects an instance running on localhost (like other
data-related samples) and gracefully ignore any connection error. A
README has been added in the sample to further explain the available
options;
Closes gh-5458
