neo4j - Is there a way to show cypher execution plan?

Question

I've seen a topic (Understanding Neo4j Cypher Profile keyword and execution plan) where profile keyword is mentioned.

I couldn't use it in Neo4j 2.0.0RC1 Community.

Peter wrote it's not fully implemented.

Will it ever be supported?

I mean, it could be interesting to watch the plan changes as we tune the query...

Answer 1

You can still find the neo4j shell, where you can run the profile command.

Either by connecting to the running server by starting bin/neo4j-shell

Or by switching to the old web-ui in the "(i)" Info-menu on the left side and selecting the bottommost link "webadmin" -> http://localhost:7474/webadmin

Profiling information will be added to browser later on, when it is easier to read and understand.
