arango

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

Installation

Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

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

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:

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:

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:

git remote remove origin
