# Build graph RAG context with Neo4j LLM Graph Builder

Convert a bounded document set into a Neo4j knowledge graph, inspect extracted nodes and relationships, and use it for graph-backed RAG.

## Prerequisites

Neo4j Database 5.23 or later with APOC, Python 3.12 backend, configured LLM provider credentials, optional front-end and Docker deployment paths from the upstream README.

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- pip install -r requirements.txt -c constraints.txt

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- ![Python](https://img.shields.io/badge/Python-yellow)
- **Python 3.12 or higher** (for local/separate backend deployment)
- If using **Neo4j Desktop**, you will need to deploy the backend and frontend separately (docker-compose is not supported).

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- Neo4j Database **5.23 or later** with APOC installed.
- **Neo4j Aura** databases (including the free tier) are supported.
- Create a .env file in the backend folder by copying backend/example.env.
