CredentialsService

public CredentialsService()

Method Detail

userNameAndPassword

public static Credentials<?> userNameAndPassword()

We expect user-name and password credentials to be set via command-line switches i.e. System properties, rather than via a properties file. In the future, we should support different mechanisms for loading credentials. At the moment, if a user defines credentials, they will be sent with each request regardless of whether the Neo4j server can handle them or not.

Returns:

A Neo4jCredentials object, or null if credentials were not supplied, or were incomplete.

authToken

public static Credentials<?> authToken()

The Auth-Token mechanism in 2.2 M02 has been removed in M04. It may yet return!

Returns:

A Neo4jCredentials object, or null if credentials were not supplied, or were incomplete.
