Rexster is a RESTful graph shell that exposes any Blueprints graph through a standalone HTTP server. RexsterGraph talks to a Rexster-exposed graph via the Rexster RESTful API. Thus, RexsterGraph can be used to communicate with a remote graph with complete HTTP-transparency to the user. RexsterGraph is composed of HTTP calls (through java.net.*) and JSON parsing.

Graph graph = new RexsterGraph("http://localhost:8182/graphs/tinkergraph");
