Who’s using graph databases today?
I think I’ve tried 5 different graph database libraries in the last two days and not a single one has been able to connect to a remote/local db. All sorts of wonderful errors, db connection genservers crashing on MatchErrors, library only supports version 4.2 of db and the only ones offered now are 5+, etc.
Perhaps it’s because I’m using 1.14.5/otp26, but it seems more that many of these libraries are just no longer actively maintained.
Perhaps it’s a sign from the Ecto gods that I shouldn’t use a graph db in my project.
Anyway, is anyone actively using elixir with graph databases? If so, what’s your stack?
Side note: attempting to debug and troubleshoot said errors has taught me a significant amount of valuable insights into how elixir, mix, libraries, config all work together… so that is a big plus! Also, why it’s important for a library to include tests

I’m currently working on a new driver for neo4j that will support v 5+. I’m still ironing out a few things but I hope I’ll be able to release it by the end of June or so.
In the mean time neo4j v 3 and v 4 can still be downloaded. If you don’t use the commercial version, the feature set is rather stable.

Hello! I’ve been working on a fork of Bolt Sips for the past 3 months. You can find the project at:
https://github.com/sagastume/boltx
It provides support for the latest versions of Neo4j and Bolt. Personally, I’ve been conducting tests with Neo4j Aura.
During this period, I made numerous changes to Bolt Sips, including refactoring PackStream, protocol, socket, and more. The idea behind these changes is to make the implementation as simple as possible, making it easy to adapt to future modifications.
Feel free to try it out and let me know if everything is working smoothly 
Compatibility with Neo4j versions: 3.0.x/3.1.x/3.2.x/3.4.x/3.5.x/4.x/5.9 - 5.13.0
Compatibility with Bolt versions: 1.0/2.0/3.0/4.x/5.0/5.1/5.2/5.3/5.4

I’ve added precompiled versions of kuzu_nif, so you can use KuzuDB without installing a Rust compiler on your computer. Attempt at adapting KuzuDB's Rust crate into Elixir via NIF, any tips/thoughts? - #19 by bgoosman. The advantage of KuzuDB is no server required. It’s all embedded.
