[2.3.0-RC1][Rest API] BC when listing labels - /labels endpoint

[ikwattro]

I know it's sunday :)

I guess it is related to the fact that unused labels are removed.

There is a slight BC when listing labels with the /db/data/labels endpoint :

1. Fresh new install of neo
2. Create a new index : CREATE INDEX ON :TestNode(id);
3. Try to list labels : GET http://localhost:7474/db/data/labels

Returns an empty body, in 2.2.6 it is returning the TestNode label.

This has as side effect that you can not list all indexes of the database from a driver without passing by the /manage/server/console/ endpoint, which is anyway inadvertently disabled in RC1.

I personally don't think that not listing the label is an issue but rather there is a BC for the labels endpoint which might affect other users or drivers.

Cheers

Hi @ikwattro, thanks for the report / heads up on this.
You can still fetch all labels like before, by passing the query param in_use=0, like :GET /db/data/labels?in_use=0.

And regarding the disabled /manage/server/console/, that is fixed and will be in the next release.

Cheers

Thanks Oscar,

I wasn't aware of this param. Thanks.

Cheers

@oskarhane Maybe I can close this issue and make a PR for the documentation instead ?
