Trouble using a hosted graphene Neo4j db

[jalakoo]

Hi, not a code issue so much as possible misunderstanding on my part.

I've tried unsuccessfully to modify the docker-compose.yml file to connect with a db hosted by graphened. Every docker-compose up run the app wants to spin up it's own local Neo4j instance instead of connecting to it.

Is using a remote neo4j instance doable with this POC?

Have also tried just removing the neo4j service like so, but there terminal just perpetually waits:

version: "3.7"
services:
  app:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    networks:
      - flask-graphql-neo4j-dev
    environment:
      - NEO4J_HOST=_bolt_address_
      - NEO4J_PORT=_matching_port_
      - NEO4J_USER=_username_
      - NEO4J_PASSWORD=_password_
      - BIND_HOST=0.0.0.0
      - BIND_PORT=8080
    ports:
      - 127.0.0.1:8080:8080
networks:
  flask-graphql-neo4j-dev: {}
