Python 3.x Comptability

[scaryclam]

I can't currently use this library as it is not up to date for python 3. Is there any interest in getting the library cleaned up for python 3?

I get the feeling this has been abandoned.

I'd be happy to review and merge a PR, but we need someone with time to actively maintain the project going forward.

[scaryclam]

@shayneoneill not completely :) I'm not going to be able to take on maintaining the project myself (I have a day job that takes up the vast majority of my coding time), but if I can I'll have a look about doing a few small PRs. Is there any resistance to looking at the latest versions of Django/neo4j as well?

[mhluongo]

Not at all, but I'll caution you that the migration to Neo4j 2.0+ was a big blocker for my work here- I'd start with Python 3 (easiest), then Django 1.8+ (more difficult due to changing framework internals). Django 1.8 includes a number of query-builder improvements that will make the switch to Neo4j 2.0+ much easier.

[scaryclam]

Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look and see if I can get the test suite running

@scaryclam I could perhaps help you out getting this up to Python 3 and Django 1.10.

[TobyOoO]

@scaryclam I am also interested in integrating neo4django to be compatible with Python3 and Django 1.10. Is there any way to participate you?

[dancaron]

@mhluongo Do you have any interest in driving the project? If so, you could add a "project," which is GitHub's Trello clone. Then we could start divvying up the work.

[mhluongo]

I do- happy to advise, review PRs, etc. Started a simple board https://github.com/scholrly/neo4django/projects/1

[mhluongo]

Python 3 should be fairly easy. Upgrading to the latest Django (do we target 1.10 or 1.8+) will be a bit more difficult, but it'll make maintaining the library far simpler in the future, as newer versions of Django have much cleaner ORM internals.

[pietermarsman]

Is there any progress with your work to get this running with the latest versions of python and django? There doesn't seem to be a working django OGM (which I find very surprising) and this project seems to be one of the better options.

Maybe I can help developping but there doesn't seem to be a lot of progress last months.

Hi

Any chance this can work now on python3. I am trapped between errors on both requirements:

It seems it fetched the required Django version, 1.4 and the error is safe to ignore, but when I start a project in Django it gives the error:

which is only solved when I upgrade Django to the latest version:

neo4django 0.1.8 requires Django<1.5,>=1.3, but you'll have django 3.1.1 which is incompatible. Successfully installed Django-3.1.1 asgiref-3.2.10 pytz-2020.1 sqlparse-0.3.1

then the models created with neo4j will give the following error:

Any chance I can still have a Django model running on neo4j database?

thank you in advance

Hi guys, After referring the docs, i just planning to use neo4j and this package but after coming here i checked that there are no recent development

• Should i use this plugin for my projects?
• Is No, there are any alternatives?
