Is there a direct method to import a dot graph to neo 4j using cypher? If not, which language would be best to work with Neo4j and dot graphs? I have already worked in C/C++ should I continue with it switch language?

Hi!

If you get the dot graph into json, perhaps you could use the APOC load json function? https://neo4j-contrib.github.io/neo4j-apoc-procedures/#load-json

You could call APOC via the C/C++ community drvier (https://neo4j.com/developer/c/).

Alternatively, you could use the community driver to custom create your nodes, using the elements from your dot graph.

I have the same question, is there an out of the box solution for getting Graphviz files (.dot) into Neo4j. Yes, I can write one, but that is not my first choice. If there was a prebuilt solution, I would be much happier !

I did one a while ago in 2016
