Support for multi-database #23

Closed davidlrosenblum closed 3 years ago

davidlrosenblum commented 3 years ago

Has there been any though for supporting the multi-database features in 4.x? It seems, that the schema scan is only against the default database (neo4j). And I don't see any what of providing that information in the dialog forms.

so Indeed we can add an option to define multiple sessions that would target different databases . We can probably add this to the parameter set definition however I am not certain what huge difference it would make compared to a different URI - which I suppose can have the database set as well. In the python client these are 2 separated sessions so I hardly see any effective optimisation brought bit such an implementation. At least for configuration clarity (for users whom would be given the specific database) so it's still worth the implementation but at a very low priority ( Alsor this is an Enterprise feature so if you want to develop this , you need an "enterprise" neo4j instance )

I was informed and tested that as of version 1.3.0 of the neo4j plugin that you can add the database to the end of the URL to accomplish what we want. E.g. neo4j://hostname:boltport/databasename I feel that queries across multiple databases is a different issue.
