Executing cypher queries from vim

[robinedwards]

Not sure if this is useful to anyone but I have been using the following to execute cypher from within vim and get the results returned to me in a vim preview buffer. It relies on the cypher command line tool that comes with py2neo

" Run cypher query
function! EvalCypher()
  let src = expand("%")
  let dst = tempname()
  execute ":silent !cat " . src . " | cypher -f json -H hostname &> " . dst
  execute ":pedit! " . dst
  execute ":redraw!"
  wincmd P
  setlocal syntax=javascript
  retab
endfunction
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.cypher map <F7> <Esc>:call EvalCypher()<CR>

Could add it to the read me if you think it's appropriate?

Please do! I'll add something to the README for using the native Neo4j tools as well. Thanks!

@robinedwards any chance you could sign the Neo4j CLA(http://docs.neo4j.org/chunked/stable/cla.html) so I can put this project in https://github.com/neo4j-contrib? I'd like to get some more exposure for this.
