Cleaning up...

Is the line

In the tar file /tmp/pip-c436mD-unpack/master the member espeed-bulbs-71d0cce/docs/social is invalid: "linkname 'espeed-bulbs-71d0cce/docs//home/james/projects/bulbflow.com/www/root/templates/social.html' not found"

displayed above an error ? And does it mean that the install of bulbs has not succeeded?

Answer 1

Don't worry about that message -- that's not an error -- from the output above, it looks like Bulbs is installed. Start up Rexster and and then try it out...

>>> from bulbs.rexster import Graph
>>> g = Graph()
>>> james = g.vertices.create(name="James")
>>> julie = g.vertices.create(name="Julie")
>>> g.edges.create(james, "knows", julie)
