== Running Rhizi Locally ==
To run Rhizi locally:
For testing locally run neo4j locally on the default 7474 port and then launch runlocal:<br><code>./runlocal</code>

Or perform the following tasks by hand:
# Invoke the local deployment Ant target:<br><code>$ cd ./rhizi && ant -f build.ant deploy-local</code>
# Assert Neo4J is running and listening on it's default port
# Run rhizi-server.py:<br><code>$ cd deploy-local && python bin/rhizi_server.py --config-dir=etc</code>

Command line use documentation can be view with:
:$ python rhizi_server.py -h

== Neo4J DB management ==

* Use <code>$ neo4j-shell -file reset-db__single_link.cypher</code> to bring the DB to an empty state, excluding two nodes and a single link.

== Running server tests ==

Test code makes use of Python's unittest - run by invoking them with python,
or by creating a launch configuration in your IDE of choice.
