This sample uses Gremlin Server 3.8 as the database pre-loaded with the air routes dataset and shows how to configure Graph Explorer to connect to it automatically with a default connection.
Warning
This sample is for local development and evaluation only. Do not use it as a template for a production deployment.
- No authentication — anyone who can reach it has full access.
- Not hardened — it is configured for convenience, not security.
- No persistence — data is lost when the container restarts.
Run it only on a trusted local network.
- Docker installed on your machine
- Clone or download this repository
- Navigate to the
samples/air_routesdirectorycd samples/air_routes - Run the following command to run the Docker image
docker compose up - Open the browser and navigate to: http://localhost:8080/explorer
- Launch the sample and open http://localhost:8080/explorer.
- Open Settings from the top navigation bar.
- Go to the Styles page.
- Click Load styles.
- Select the
samples/air_routes/styles.jsonfile from this repository on your machine. - In the selective import modal, keep all five styles selected (or pick only the ones you want), then click Load selected.
- Return to the Graph or Schema view. Airports, countries, and continents now render with distinct shapes, colors, and icons; routes and contains edges also have distinct line styles.
Note
The browser file picker reads from your host filesystem, not the Docker container. No volume mount is needed — just ensure styles.json is available on your machine before loading it.
Once it is running, the Getting Started tutorial walks you through exploring the air routes data step by step.
