Structgraph

Your application’s structure in graph database

Purpose

Structgraph is simple console application, that walks jar/war/ear archive and creates neo4j database representing its structure, annotations and method calls.

Building

Project can be built with Maven and Java 8.

$ mvn clean install -Pdist

Profile dist will copy all runtime dependencies to target/lib, and the final jar file will put them on its classpath.

Invoking

java -jar structgraph-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar <class archive> <database location> <package prefix>

class archive

any jar, war, or ear file.

database location

a non-existing or empty directory where database should be created. structgraph currently doesn’t support merging data from multiple sources

package prefix

classes in this and deeper packages will be processed

Exploring the database

Download Neo4j, and install it. Then edit file <neo4j home>/conf/neo4j-server.properties. Change org.neo4j.server.database.location — usually the first setting — to absolute path to the generated database.

Then start the server.

$ bin/neo4j console

And see the console at http://localhost:7474/
