# arango

A simple Python wrapper for connecting to and interacting with ArangoDB.

## Installation

Install dependencies:

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

You also need to install `env_manager` to help set up environment variables for ArangoDB:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/lasseedfast/env_manager.git
```

## Usage

Environment variables:

- `ARANGO_HOST`
- `ARANGO_DB`
- `ARANGO_USERNAME`
- `ARANGO_PWD`

Tthe package will use `env_manager` to set them automatically (first time you may need to provide a password).

Example:

```python
from _arango import arango

results = arango.execute_aql("FOR doc IN my_collection RETURN doc")
```

## Using as a Base for Your Own Project

If you want to use this package as a starting point for your own ArangoDB utilities, you can clone the repository:

```bash
git clone https://git.edfast.se/lasse/arango.git
```

You can then add your own methods and modify the code as needed. If you do not plan to sync changes back to the original repository, consider to remove or change the remote origin to avoid accidentally pushing changes to the original repo:
  ```bash
  git remote remove origin
  ```
