Package org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.util.detached

Class DetachedEdge

java.lang.Object

org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.util.detached.DetachedElement<Edge>

org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.util.detached.DetachedEdge

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Edge, Element, Attachable<Edge>

public class DetachedEdge
extends DetachedElement<Edge>
implements Edge

Represents an Edge that is disconnected from a Graph. "Disconnection" can mean detachment from a Graph in the sense that the Edge was constructed from a Graph instance and this reference was removed or it can mean that the DetachedEdge could have been constructed independently of a Graph instance in the first place.

A DetachedEdge only has reference to the properties and in/out vertices that are associated with it at the time of detachment (or construction) and is not traversable or mutable. Note that the references to the in/out vertices are DetachedVertex instances that only have reference to the Element.id() and Element.label().

Method Detail

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

inVertex

public Vertex inVertex()

Description copied from interface: Edge

Get the incoming/head vertex of this edge.

Specified by:

inVertex in interface Edge

Returns:

the incoming vertex of the edge

outVertex

public Vertex outVertex()

Description copied from interface: Edge

Get the outgoing/tail vertex of this edge.

Specified by:

outVertex in interface Edge

Returns:

the outgoing vertex of the edge

vertices

public Iterator<Vertex> vertices(Direction direction)

Description copied from interface: Edge

Retrieve the vertex (or vertices) associated with this edge as defined by the direction. If the direction is Direction.BOTH then the iterator order is: Direction.OUT then Direction.IN.

Specified by:

vertices in interface Edge

Parameters:

direction - Get the incoming vertex, outgoing vertex, or both vertices

Returns:

An iterator with 1 or 2 vertices

remove

public void remove()

Description copied from interface: Element

Removes the Element from the graph.

Specified by:

remove in interface Element

properties

public <V> Iterator<Property<V>> properties(String... propertyKeys)

Description copied from interface: Element

Get an Iterator of properties where the propertyKeys is meant to be a filter on the available keys. If no keys are provide then return all the properties.

Specified by:

properties in interface Edge

Specified by:

properties in interface Element

Overrides:

properties in class DetachedElement<Edge>

build

public static DetachedEdge.Builder build()

Provides a way to construct an immutable DetachedEdge.
