All the neo4j(dev
, test
, and prod
) deployments use the same HuBMAP neo4j image. The neo4j configuration as well as database files are mounted from the host to the container for data persistence across container restarts.
There's an empty directory under each version's sub-directory named data
, which is the database to be mounted from host to the neo4j container for data persistence.
If you have an exported version of the database, for instance $NEO4J_HOME/data
. Copy all the files within data
to this data
before starting the container.
We can start the neo4j container by:
./neo4j-docker.sh dev start
And to stop the service:
./neo4j-docker.sh dev stop
- Stop the running container and remove it
- Replace the whole
dev/data
directory with the newdata
directory containing the new database from either PROD copy or a backup - Start the container
- Login with the username and password from the new database copy
- Change the password in Neo4j browser by typing:
:server change-password
then enter the existing password and new one
All the localhost
, dev
, test
, and prod
versions is based on the same hubmap/neo4j-image
image. To update the neo4j image, recrerate it with
cd neo4j-image
docker build -t hubmap/neo4j-image:5.20.0 .
Then publish it to the DockerHub:
docker login
docker push hubmap/neo4j-image:5.20.0
