Using it in docker-compose about docker-neo4j

[benbc]

Hello @nanounanue

To change the password you need to set the NEO4J_AUTH environment variable. See the "Environment variables" section of the image docs and the Neo4j manual for details.

I'm not sure what you mean by "access it from the shell". Can you expand on that?

Thank you for your quick response @benbc

I read the section that you mentioned, but How can I avoid that it asks change the password the first time?

And about the "access it from the shell", I mean that I open a neo4j-shell and when I try to connect, It fails...

The docker-compose ps output:

How can I avoid that it asks change the password the first time?

You need to set the initial password using the environment variable NEO4J_AUTH.

Have you read the section on the Neo4j shell in the docs here? (It's poorly formatted because of a bug in Docker Hub; the section you need is at the end.)
