What are the steps for installing and deploying neo4j with Docker?

Here are the steps for installing and deploying Neo4j using Docker:

1. To install Docker: first, you need to install Docker on your computer. You can download it from the official Docker website and follow the instructions for installation.
2. Pull Neo4j image: Use the following command to pull the Neo4j image from Docker Hub. You can choose a specific version of Neo4j as needed.
3. Get the Neo4j image using Docker.
4. Start the Neo4j container: Use the following command to start the Neo4j container. Replace with the administrator password you want to set, and replace with the local path where you want to save the Neo4j data.
5. Start a Docker container named “neo4j-container” with port mapping for 7474 and 7687, volume mapping for data, setting authentication credentials, running in detached mode and using the neo4j image.
6. Please note that the parameter -p in the above command maps Neo4j’s HTTP and Bolt ports to the respective ports on the host (7474 and 7687). The parameter -v is used to mount the Neo4j data directory to a specified path on the host. The parameter -e is used to set the username and password for the Neo4j admin account.
7. Accessing Neo4j Web Interface: After the container has successfully started, you can access Neo4j’s Web interface by entering http://localhost:7474 in your web browser. During the initial visit, you will need to authenticate using the admin username and password set in step 3.

After completing the aforementioned steps, your Neo4j database will be running in a Docker container, allowing you to connect and operate the database using Neo4j’s web interface or other tools.
