Answer 1

After a lot of effort, my solution is not to use docker.

Go and download a community server from here. https://neo4j.com/download-center/#community. It will give you a compressed file. Extract it. You will have a folder named like neo4j-community-3.5.14. Make a copy of THAT FOLDER. For each server instance, make a copy.

Inside the folder, there is a conf folder which has a file named neo4j.conf. Open that file. By changing some settings inside this folder, you can run many neo4j servers. Change the below settings

To accept non-local connections, uncomment this line:

dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0

change some port numbers so that they won't intersect with already used ones

dbms.connector.bolt.listen_address=:3003 dbms.connector.https.listen_address=:3002 dbms.connector.http.listen_address=:3001
