*Gremlin Symphony #40 in G Minor*

== TinkerPop 3.3.11

*Release Date: June 1, 2020*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.11/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-11[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== GLV Sessions

While TinkerPop doesn't recommend the use of sessions for most use cases, it does remain a feature that is available
and exposed on the server. As such, providing support in all Gremlin Language Variants for this feature is useful in
ensuring a consistent implementation for all programming languages.

[source,javascript]
const client = new Client('ws://localhost:8182/gremlin', { traversalSource: 'g', 'session': 'unique-string-id' });

[source, python]
client = Client('ws://localhost:8182/gremlin', 'g', session=str(uuid.uuid4()))

[source, csharp]
var gremlinServer = new GremlinServer("localhost", 8182);
var client = new GremlinClient(gremlinServer, sessionId: Guid.NewGuid().ToString()))

==== Deprecate maxWaitForSessionClose

The `maxWaitForSessionClose` setting for the Java driver has been deprecated and in some sense replaced by the
`maxWaitForClose` setting. The two settings perform different functions, but expect `maxWaitForSessionClose` to be
removed in future versions. The `maxWaitForClose` performs a more useful function than `maxWaitForSessionClose` in
the sense that it tells the driver how long it should wait for pending messages from the server before closing the
connection. The `maxWaitForSessionClose` on the other hand is how long the driver should wait for the server to
respond to a session close message (i.e. an actual response from the server). Waiting for that specific response to the
session close message could result in the driver hanging on calls to `Client.close()` if there is a long run query
running on the server and close message is stacked behind that in queue.

Future versions will remove support for that particular message and simply close the session when the connection is
closed. As a result that setting will no longer be useful. The old setting is really only useful for connecting to
older versions of the server prior to 3.3.11 that do not have the session shutdown hook bound to the close of the
connection.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2336[TINKERPOP-2336]

=== Upgrading for Providers

==== Gremlin Driver Providers

===== Session Close

The "close" message for the `SessionOpProcessor` is deprecated, however the functionality to accept the message remains
in Gremlin Server and the functionality to send the message remains in the Java driver. The expectation is that
support for the message will be removed from the driver in a future release, likely at 3.5.0. Server implementations
starting at 3.3.11 should look to use the close of a connection to trigger the close of a session and its release of
resources.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2336[TINKERPOP-2336]

== TinkerPop 3.3.10

*Release Date: February 3, 2020*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.10/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-10[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Traversal Clone

Once a traversal has been executed (i.e. iterated) it's internal state is such that it cannot be re-used:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> t = g.V().count()
==>6
gremlin> t
gremlin>
----

To re-use a traversal it must be copied with `clone()` as follows:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> t = g.V().count()
==>6
gremlin> t.clone()
==>6
gremlin> t.clone()
==>6
----

The ability to `clone()` has been exclusive to Java and was a missing component of other supported languages like
Python, Javascript and .NET. This feature has now been added for all the language variants making the ability to
re-use traversals consistent in all ecosystems.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2315[TINKERPOP-2315]

==== Deprecated Jython Support

Jython support in `gremlin-python` has been deprecated to focus on native Python 3.x support for 3.5.0 where Jython
support will be wholly removed. This change does mean that TinkerPop will no longer support the ability to submit
lambdas as native Python scripts. They will need to be submitted as Groovy and the library will be defaulted to do as
such.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2322[TINKERPOP-2322]

== TinkerPop 3.3.9

*Release Date: October 14, 2019*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.9/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-9[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== ReservedKeysVerificationStrategy

`ReservedKeysVerificationStrategy` is a new `VerificationStrategy` that can be used to help prevent traversals from
adding property keys that are protected. They may be protected as a result of the key being a reserved keyword of the
underlying graph system or they key may simply violate some standard conventions.

[source,text]
----
gremlin> g.withStrategies(ReservedKeysVerificationStrategy.build().throwException().create()).addV('person').property("id",123)
The provided traversal contains a AddVertexStartStep that is setting a property key to a reserved word: id
Type ':help' or ':h' for help.

----

link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2280[TINKERPOP-2280]

==== Javascript ResponseError

Gremlin Javascript now enables more robust error handling by way of a `ResponseError` which provides access to more
information from the server. Specifically, it includes the `statusMessage` and `statusCode` which were formerly packed
into the `Error.message` property, which meant that the error message string had to be parsed if there was a need to
take a specific action based on that information. The `ResponseError` also includes the `statusAttributes` which
is a `Map` object that will typically incorporate server `exceptions` and `stackTrace` keys, but could also include
provider specific error information.

The original error messaging has remained unchanged and therefore users who were message parsing should not expect
changes in behavior, however, future versions will eliminate the "overuse" of the `Error.message` property, so it is
advised that users update their code to take advantage of the `ResponseError` features.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2285[TINKERPOP-2285]

==== Java Driver NoHostAvailableException

Expect a `NoHostAvailableException` rather than a more generic `TimeoutException` if the Java driver is unable to
connect to a `Host`. This sort of failure can occur in a number of different scenarios, but can often occur when there
are configuration problems with authentication and SSL, preventing the connection to the `Host` to be established.

link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2132[TINKERPOP-2132]

==== Deprecated scriptEvaluationTimeout

The `scriptEvaluationTimeout` controls the length of time a request is processed by Gremlin Server (or at its core,
the `GremlinExecutor`). Of course, with the introduction of bytecode-based requests many versions ago, this naming
has failed to make complete sense in more recent times. Therefore, `scriptEvaluationTimeout` has been deprecated and
replaced by `evaluationTimeout`. Both configurations are still respected, but it is advised that users switch to
`evaluationTimeout` as `scriptEvaluationTimeout` will be removed in a later version.

Note that when configuring Gremlin Server's `evaluationTimeout` that the `scriptEvaluationTimeout` should be set to
`-1` (the default) or else it will use that value in its initialization of the server and ignore the
`evaluationTimeout`.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2213[TINKERPOP-2213]

== TinkerPop 3.3.8

*Release Date: August 5, 2019*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.8/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-8[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Branch Steps Accept Predicates and Traversals

Prior to this version, branch steps (in particular `BranchStep` and `ChooseStep`) could only handle constant values and `Pick` tokens. Starting in this version, these steps will also accept
predicates and traversals as show in the example below.

[source,text]
----
gremlin> g = TinkerFactory.createModern().traversal()
==>graphtraversalsource[tinkergraph[vertices:6 edges:6], standard]
gremlin> g.V().hasLabel("person").
......1>   group().
......2>     by("name").
......3>     by(branch(values("age")).
......4>          option(29, constant("almost old")).
......5>          option(__.is(32), constant("looks like josh")).
......6>          option(lt(29), constant("pretty young")).
......7>          option(lt(35), constant("younger than peter")).
......8>          option(gte(30), constant("pretty old")).
......9>          option(none, constant("mysterious")).fold()).
.....10>   unfold()
==>peter=[pretty old]
==>vadas=[pretty young, younger than peter]
==>josh=[looks like josh, younger than peter, pretty old]
==>marko=[almost old, younger than peter]
----

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1084[TINKERPOP-1084]

==== Python DateTime

With GraphSON, the `g:Date` is meant to represent a millisecond-precision offset from the unix epoch, but earlier
version of Gremlin Python were using the timezone of the local system to handle serialization and deserialization,
thus resulting in incorrect conversion. This issue is now resolved. It may be necessary to remove workarounds that have
been introduced to combat this problem.

See: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2264[TINKERPOP-2264]

==== JavaScript withComputer()

Gremlin-Javascript now supports `withComputer()` syntax, which means that it is now possible in Javascript to utilize
Gremlin steps that require a `GraphComputer` to execute (e.g. `pageRank()` and `peerPressure()`).

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2251[TINKERPOP-2251]

==== JavaScript and .NET hasNext()

There is now greater consistency across Gremlin Language Variants with `hasNext()` support added to both JavaScript
and .NET. Note that in .NET, the proper method name follows C# capitalization semantics and is referred to as
`HasNext()`.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1921[TINKERPOP-1921]

==== Deprecated getSideEffects()

`Traversal.getSideEffects()` has been deprecated for purposes of external calls by end-users. While the method is still
present TinkerPop no longer guarantees its existence in future versions or consistency of its behavior, especially for
Gremlin Language Variants and remote traversal execution. If this method is currently in use to gather side-effect
results after traversal execution, please change such code to use `cap()`-step. For example, code like this:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> t = g.V().hasLabel('person').aggregate('p').out('created')
==>v[3]
==>v[5]
==>v[3]
==>v[3]
gremlin> t.getSideEffects().get('p')
==>v[1]
==>v[2]
==>v[4]
==>v[6]
----

should be converted to something like:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> g.V().hasLabel('person').aggregate('p').out('created').union(fold(),cap('p'))
==>[v[3],v[3],v[3],v[5]]
==>[v[1],v[2],v[4],v[6]]
----

link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2265[TINKERPOP-2265]

==== EventStrategy

Prior TinkerPop 3.3.6 `EventStrategy` did not work with multi-properties. The `EventStrategy` behavior for single-valued properties has not changed; if a property is added to a multi-valued
`VertexProperty`, then a `VertexPropertyChangedEvent` will be now be fired. The arguments passed to the event depend on the cardinality type.

[width="100%",cols="2"]
|=========================================================
|`Cardinality.list` | Since properties will always be added and never be overwritten, the old property passed to the change event will always be an empty property.
|`Cardinality.set`  | The old property passed to the change event will be empty if no other property with the same value exists, otherwise, it will be the existing property.
|=========================================================

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2159[TINKERPOP-2159]

== TinkerPop 3.3.7

*Release Date: May 28, 2019*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.7/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-7[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== JavaScript DSL Pattern

Gremlin DSL developers had to rely on monkey patching to build a Domain Specific Language in JavaScript. With this
latest version, the process is a bit more elegant and largely handled by extending existing core classes of
`Gremlin-JavaScript` which is a bit more in-line with other language variant patterns for DSL development.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2089[TINKERPOP-2089],
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.7/reference/#gremlin-javascript-dsl[Reference Documentation]

==== Gremlin Console Interrupt

There are occasions where a traversal (or other evaluation) takes longer than expected to complete. Common examples
of these situations typically include:

* Accidentally executing `g.V()` (i.e. full graph scan) on a very large graph as an OLTP style traversal.
* Not terminating a `repeat()` properly which results in an infinite loop.
* Bad data might create a cycle in the graph where one wasn't expected.
* Failing to properly bound a traversal's path through one or more supernodes.

In earlier versions, the only option was to kill the Gremlin Console (typically with `ctrl+c`), but as of this version
`ctrl+c` will be intercepted and attempt to interrupt whatever process is currently executing.

See link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2181[TINKERPOP-2181]

==== Removed gperfutils Dependency

Gremlin Console included references to:

[source,xml]
----
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.gperfutils</groupId>
    <artifactId>gbench</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.gperfutils</groupId>
    <artifactId>gprof</artifactId>
</dependency
----

to provide some benchmarking and profiling tools for the Utilities Plugin. Neither project is well maintained at this
point and given that TinkerPop has moved past the versions of Groovy that are supported by these tools it doesn't
make sense to retain the dependencies. Users who wish to continue to use these tools can obviously do so still by
manually adding the dependencies to the Gremlin Console or with the following command:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> :install org.gperfutils gbench <version>
gremlin> :install org.gperfutils gprof <version>
----

and then import the appropriate classes and methods to use.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2182[TINKERPOP-2182]

=== Upgrading for Providers

==== Graph Database Providers

===== Detection of Anti-Patterns

This release adds a strategy named `EdgeLabelVerificationStrategy`. The strategy will not be added by default to the traversal source, however, providers can add it explicitly to encourage (or enforce)
users to always specify at least one edge label. `EdgeLabelVerificationStrategy` can be configured to either throw an exception if no edge label was specified, log a warning or do both.

[source,text]
----
gremlin> // throw an exception if edge label was not specified
gremlin> g = TinkerFactory.createModern().traversal().withStrategies(EdgeLabelVerificationStrategy.build().throwException().create())
==>graphtraversalsource[tinkergraph[vertices:6 edges:6], standard]
gremlin> g.V(1).out('knows')
==>v[2]
==>v[4]
gremlin> g.V(1).out()

== TinkerPop 3.3.6

*Release Date: March 18, 2019*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.6/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-6[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Anti-Patterns Documentation

The Gremlin Recipes documentation now has a new section which discusses anti-patterns in Gremlin. Its subsections
detail commonly seen approaches to the Gremlin language which can lead to poorly written and/or under-performing
traversals. The new Anti-Patterns Section can be found
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.6/recipes/#_anti_patterns[here].

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2114[TINKERPOP-2114]

== TinkerPop 3.3.5

*Release Date: January 2, 2019*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.5/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-5[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== AnonymousTraversalSource

The `AnonymousTraversalSource` provides for a more unified syntax for `TraversalSource` construction by placing greater
user emphasis on the creation of the source rather than the `Graph` it is connected to. It has a number of different
static `traversal()` methods available and when imported as:

[source,java]
import static org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.AnonymousTraversalSource.traversal;

allows `TraversalSource` construction syntax such as:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> g = traversal().withGraph(TinkerFactory.createModern())
==>graphtraversalsource[tinkergraph[vertices:6 edges:6], standard]
gremlin> g = traversal().withRemote('conf/remote-graph.properties')
==>graphtraversalsource[emptygraph[empty], standard]
gremlin> g = traversal().withRemote(DriverRemoteConnection.using('localhost',8182))
==>graphtraversalsource[emptygraph[empty], standard]
----

Typically, this syntax is used for "remote" traversal construction for bytecode based requests, but has the option to
bind a local `Graph` instance to it as well. It doesn't save much typing to do so obviously, so it may not be best
used in that situation. Python, Javascript and .NET have similar syntax.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2078[TINKERPOP-2078]

==== Bytecode Command

The Gremlin Console now has a new `:bytecode` command to help users work more directly with Gremlin bytecode. The
command is more of a debugging tool than something that would be used for every day purposes. It is sometimes helpful
to look at Gremlin bytecode directly and the process for viewing it in human readable format is not a single step
process. It is also not immediately clear how to convert bytecode to a Gremlin string. The `:bytecode` command aims to
help with both of these issues:

[source,text]
----
gremlin> g = TinkerFactory.createModern().traversal()
==>graphtraversalsource[tinkergraph[vertices:6 edges:6], standard]
gremlin> :bytecode from g.V().out('knows')  <1>
==>{"@type":"g:Bytecode","@value":{"step":[["V"],["out","knows"]]}}
gremlin> :bytecode translate g {"@type":"g:Bytecode","@value":{"step":[["V"],["out","knows"]]}} <2>
==>g.V().out("knows")
----

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2050[TINKERPOP-2050],
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.5/reference/#_console_commands[Reference Documentation - Console Commands]

==== Configurable Class Map Cache

The "class map" cache in Gremlin Server (specifically the `GremlinGroovyScriptEngine`) that holds compiled scripts is
now fully configurable via the `GroovyCompilerGremlinPlugin.classMapCacheSpecification`.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2038[TINKERPOP-2038],
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.5/reference/#gremlin-server-cache[Reference Documentation - Cache Management]

==== RangeStep Optimizing Strategy

A new strategy named `EarlyLimitStrategy` was added. The strategy will try to find a better spot for any `RangeStep`,
which is as early as possible in the traversal. If possible it will also merge multiple `RangeStep`s into a single one
by recalculating the range for the first step and removing the second. If it turns out that the merge of two steps won't
produce a valid range (an empty result), then the `EarlyLimitStrategy` will remove the `RangeStep`s and insert a `NoneStep`
instead.

This strategy is particularly useful when a provider implementation generates the queries to the underlying database. By
making sure that the ranges are applied as early as possible, we can ensure that the underlying database is only asked
for the least amount of data necessary to continue the traversal evaluation.

=== Upgrading for Providers

==== Graph Database Providers

===== OptOut on GraphProvider

It is not uncommon for those utilizing the TinkerPop test suite to have multiple configurations of their graph under
test. The multiple configurations typically manifest as multiple `GraphProvider` implementations which supply the
different configurations to test. It is sometimes the case, that a particular `Graph` configuration cannot support all
of the tests in the suite at which point some less than straightforward approaches to dealing with that present as
solutions.

It has always been possible to apply an `OptOut` annotation to a `Graph` instance, to avoid a particular test
execution. It is now possible to apply that same `OptOut` to a `GraphProvider` instance for that same purpose.
Hopefully, this feature will make multiple configuration testing easier.

== TinkerPop 3.3.4

*Release Date: October 15, 2018*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.4/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-4[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Introducing Order.asc and Order.desc

The `Order` enum originally introduced `incr` for ascending order and `decr` for descending order. It's not clear why
they were named this way when common querying parlance would call for `asc` and `desc` for those respective cases. Note
that `incr` and `decr` have not been removed - just deprecated and thus marked for future removal. Prefer `asc` and
`desc` going forward when writing Gremlin and look to update existing code using the deprecated values.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1956[TINKERPOP-1956]

==== TimedInterrupt

In Gremlin Server, it is best not to use the `timedInterrupt` option on `GroovyCompilerGremlinPlugin` because it
can compete with the `scriptEvaluationTimeout` setting and produce a different error path. Simply rely on
`scriptEvaluationTimeout` as it covers both script evaluation time and result iteration time.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1778[TINKERPOP-1778]

==== Credential DSL Changes

The Credential DSL has been modified to work as a standard Java-based Gremlin DSL. The now deprecated old approach
used a "graph wrapping" style that was developed long before the
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/current/reference/#gremlin-java-dsl[recommended method] for building DSLs was
published. Under this new model, the DSL is initialized via traversal as follows:

[source,java]
----
CredentialTraversalSource credentials = graph.traversal(CredentialTraversalSource.class)
credentials.user("stephen","password").iterate()
credentials.users("stephen").valueMap().next()
credentials.users().count().next()
credentials.users("stephen").drop().iterate()
----

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Gremlin Python Sets

Graph traversals that return a `Set` from Java are now coerced to a `List` in Python. This change ensures that Python
results match Java results for the same traversal. It is possible to see this problem in prior versions of
gremlin-python where a `Set` of numbers of different types are returned. In Java, a set of:

[source,text]
----
[1,1.0d,2,2.0d]
----

would be deserialized to the following in Python:

[source,text]
----
[1,2]
----

Now that the Java `Set` is coerced to a `List` in Gremin Python, the Java `Set` can be fully represented. Users who
require a `Set` will need to manually convert their `List` to a `Set`.

==== Gremlin Python path()

There was a bug in GraphSON 3.0 serialization that prevented proper handling of results contain `Path` object. As a
result, traversals that used and returned results from the `path()`-step in Python would return unusable results,
but did not actually cause an exception condition. This problem is now resolved.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1799[TINKERPOP-1799]

==== Added `math()`-step for Scientific Traversal Computing

`GraphTraversal.math(String)` was added. This step provides scientific calculator capabilities to a Gremlin traversal.

==== Changed Typing on `from()` and `to()`

The `from()` and `to()`-steps of `GraphTraversal` have a `Traversal<E,Vertex>` overload. The `E` has been changed to `?`
in order to reduce `< >`-based coersion in strongly type Gremlin language variants.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1793[TINKERPOP-1793]

==== addV(traversal) and addE(traversal)

The `GraphTraversal` and `GraphTraversalSource` methods of `addV()` and `addE()` have been extended to support dynamic
label determination upon element creation. Both these methods can take a `Traversal<?, String>` where the first `String`
returned by the traversal is used as the label of the respective element.

[source,groovy]

==== PageRankVertexProgram

There were two major bugs in the way in which PageRank was being calculated in `PageRankVertexProgram`. First, teleportation
energy was not being distributed correctly amongst the vertices at each round. Second, terminal vertices (i.e. vertices
with no outgoing edges) did not have their full gathered energy distributed via teleportation.

For users upgrading, note that while the relative rank orders will remain "the same," the actual PageRank values will differ
from prior TinkerPop versions.

```
VERTEX  iGRAPH    TINKERPOP
marko   0.1119788 0.11375485828040575
vadas   0.1370267 0.14598540145985406
lop     0.2665600 0.30472082661863686

peter   0.1119788 0.11375485828040575
```

Normalization preserved through computation:

```
0.11375485828040575 +
0.14598540145985406 +
0.30472082661863686 +

0.11375485828040575
==>1.00000000000000018
```

Two other additions to `PageRankVertexProgram` were provided as well.

1. It now calculates the vertex count and thus, no longer requires the user to specify the vertex count.
2. It now allows the user to leverage an epsilon-based convergence instead of having to specify the number of iterations to execute.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1783[TINKERPOP-1783]

==== IO Defaults

While 3.3.0 released Gryo 3.0 and GraphSON 3.0 and these versions were defaulted in a number of places, it seems that
some key defaults were missed. Specifically, calls to `Graph.io(graphson())` and `Graph.io(gryo())` were still using
the old versions. The defaults have now been changed to ensure 3.0 is properly referenced in those cases.

==== Upgrade Neo4j

See Neo4j's link:https://neo4j.com/guides/upgrade/[3.2 Upgrade FAQ] for a complete guide on how to upgrade from the previous 2.3.3 version. Also note that many of the configuration settings have link:https://neo4j.com/developer/kb/manually-migrating-configuration-settings-from-neo4j-2x-to-neo4j-3x/[changed from neo4j 2x to 3x]

In particular, these properties referenced in TinkerPop documentation and configuration were renamed:

[width="100%",cols="2",options="header"]

=== Upgrading for Providers

IMPORTANT: It is recommended that providers also review all the upgrade instructions specified for users. Many of the
changes there may prove important for the provider's implementation.

==== Graph Database Providers

===== IO Version Check

In the `Graph.io()` method, providers are to bootstrap the `Io` instance returned with their own custom serializers
typically provided through a custom `IoRegistry` instance. Prior to this change it was not possible to easily determine
the version of `Io` that was expected (nor was it especially necessary as TinkerPop didn't have breaking format changes
between versions). As of 3.3.0 however, there could be IO test incompatibilities for some providers who need to
register a different `IoRegistry` instance depending on the version the user wants.

To allow for that check, the `Io` interface now has the following method:

[source,java]
----
public <V> boolean requiresVersion(final V version);
----

which allows the graph provider to check if a specific `GryoVersion` or `GraphSONVersion` is required. Using that
information, the provider could then assign the right `IoRegistry` to match that.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1767[TINKERPOP-1767]


== TinkerPop 3.3.0

*Release Date: August 21, 2017*

Please see the link:https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.3.0/CHANGELOG.asciidoc#release-3-3-0[changelog] for a complete list of all the modifications that are part of this release.

=== Upgrading for Users

==== Packaged Data Files

TinkerPop has always packaged sample graphs with its zip distributions. As of 3.3.0, the distributions will only
include Gryo 3.0, GraphSON 3.0 and GraphML (which is unversioned) files. Other versions are not included, but could
obviously be generated using the IO API directly.

==== GraphTraversal Has-Methods Re-Organized

`GraphTraversal.hasXXX()`, where `XXX` is `Id`, `Label`, `Key`, `Value`, was faulty in that they relied on calling an
intermediate method for flattening `Object[]` arguments and thus, yielding a non 1-to-1 correspondence between `GraphTraversal`
and `Bytecode`. This has been remedied. Most users will not notice this change. Perhaps only some users that may use
Java reflection over `GraphTraversal` might have a simple problem.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1520[TINKERPOP-1520]

==== Changes to IO

===== Gryo 3.0

With Gryo, TinkerPop skips version 2.0 and goes right to 3.0 (to maintain better parity with GraphSON versioning).
Gryo 3.0 fixes a number of inconsistencies with Gryo 1.0 and hopefully marks a point where Gryo is better versioned
over time. Gryo 3.0 is not compatible with Gryo 1.0 and is now the default version of Gryo exposed by TinkerPop in
Gremlin Server and IO.

It isn't hard to switch back to use of Gryo 1.0 if necessary. Here is the approach for writing an entire graph:

[source,java]
----
Graph graph = TinkerFactory.createModern();
GryoMapper mapper = graph.io(IoCore.gryo()).mapper().version(GryoVersion.V1_0).create()
try (OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("tinkerpop-modern.json")) {
    graph.io(IoCore.gryo()).writer().mapper(mapper).create().writeGraph(os, graph)
}

final Graph newGraph = TinkerGraph.open();
try (InputStream stream = new FileInputStream("tinkerpop-modern.json")) {
    newGraph.io(IoCore.gryo()).reader().mapper(mapper).create().readGraph(stream, newGraph);
}
----

Gremlin Server configurations don't include Gryo 1.0 by default:

[source,yaml]
----
serializers:
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}             # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { serializeResultToString: true }}                                                                       # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo-stringd
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GraphSONMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}         # application/json
----

but adding an entry as follows will add it back:

[source,yaml]
----
serializers:
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV1d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV1d0] }}             # application/vnd.gremlin-v1.0+gryo
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}             # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { serializeResultToString: true }}                                                                       # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo-stringd
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GraphSONMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}         # application/json
----

To use Gryo 1.0 with the Java driver, just specify the 1.0 serializer directly:

[source,java]
----
GryoMapper.Builder builder = GryoMapper.build().
        version(GryoVersion.V1_0).
        addRegistry(TinkerIoRegistryV1d0.instance());
Cluster cluster = Cluster.build().serializer(GryoMessageSerializerV1d0(builder));
----

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1698[TINKERPOP-1698]

===== GraphSON 3.0

GraphSON 3.0 finishes what GraphSON 2.0 began by taking the extra step to include the following types: `g:Map`,
`g:List` and `g:Set`. With these types it is now possible to get expected Gremlin results in GLVs just as one would
if using Java. This is especially true of the `g:Map` type, which allows non-string keys values, something not allowed
in regular JSON maps. This allows for common traversals like `g.V().groupCount()` to work, where the traversal groups
on a `Vertex` or some other complex object.

Note that GraphSON 3.0 does not have an option to be without types. This was a feature of 1.0 and 2.0, but it is no
longer supported. There is little point to such a feature as we see more movement toward GLVs, which require types,
and less usage of scripts with custom parsing of results.

Both TinkerGraph and Gremlin Server have been defaulted to work with GraphSON 3.0. For TinkerGraph this means that
the following commands:

[source,java]
----
Graph graph = TinkerFactory.createModern();
graph.io(IoCore.graphson()).writeGraph("tinkerpop-modern.json");

final Graph newGraph = TinkerGraph.open();
newGraph.io(IoCore.graphson()).readGraph("tinkerpop-modern.json");
----

will write and read GraphSON 3.0 format rather than 1.0. To use 1.0 (or 2.0 for that matter) format simply set the
`version()` on the appropriate builder methods:

[source,java]
----
Graph graph = TinkerFactory.createModern();
GraphSONMapper mapper = graph.io(IoCore.graphson()).mapper().version(GraphSONVersion.V1_0).create()
try (OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("tinkerpop-modern.json")) {
    graph.io(IoCore.graphson()).writer().mapper(mapper).create().writeGraph(os, graph)
}

final Graph newGraph = TinkerGraph.open();
try (InputStream stream = new FileInputStream("tinkerpop-modern.json")) {
    newGraph.io(IoCore.graphson()).reader().mapper(mapper).create().readGraph(stream, newGraph);
}
----

For Gremlin Server, this change means that the `application/json` mime type no longer returns GraphSON 1.0 without
type embedding. Instead, Gremlin Server will return GraphSON 3.0 with partial types enabled (i.e. which is equivalent
to `application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+json`). The `serializers` section the sample Gremlin Server YAML files now typically
look like this:

[source,yaml]
----
serializers:
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}             # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { serializeResultToString: true }}                                                                       # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo-stringd
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GraphSONMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV1d0] }}         # application/json
----

It is possible to bring back the original configuration for `application/json` by changing the last entry as follows:

[source,yaml]
----
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV3d0] }}             # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GryoMessageSerializerV3d0, config: { serializeResultToString: true }}                                                                       # application/vnd.gremlin-v3.0+gryo-stringd
  - { className: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.driver.ser.GraphSONMessageSerializerV1d0, config: { ioRegistries: [org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.tinkergraph.structure.TinkerIoRegistryV1d0]  }}        # application/json
----

link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1574[TINKERPOP-1574]

==== Graphite and Ganglia

Graphite and Ganglia are no longer packaged with the Gremlin Server distribution. They are considered optional
dependencies and therefore must be installed manually by the user.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1550[TINKERPOP-1550],
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.0/reference/#metrics[Reference Documentation - Metrics]

==== SelectStep Defaults to Pop.last

`SelectStep` and `SelectOneStep` (`select()`) are the only `Scoping` steps that default to `Pop.mixed` as their labeled path
selection criteria. All other steps, like `match()`, `where()` and `dedup()`, use `Pop.last`. In order to better enable optimizations
around total `Pop.last` traversals, the `select()`-steps now default to `Pop.last`. Most users will not notice a difference as
it is rare for repeated labels to be used in practice. However, formal backwards compatibility is possible as outlined below.

Assuming that `x` is not a `Pop` argument:

1. Change all `select(x,y,z)` calls to `selectV3d2(x,y,z)` calls.
2. Change all `select(x,y,z)`-step calls to `select(Pop.mixed,x,y,z)`.

If an explicit `Pop` argument is provided, then no changes are required.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1541[TINKERPOP-1541]

==== OptionalStep and Side-Effects

The `optional()`-step was previously implemented using `ChooseStep`. However, if the optional branch contained side-effects,
then unexpected behaviors can emerge. Thus, a potential backwards compatibility issue arises if side-effects were being
used in `optional()`. However, the behavior would be unpredictable so this backwards incompatibility is desirable.

See link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1506[TINKERPOP-1506]

==== Gremlin Console Initialization

It is no longer possible to intialize the Gremlin Console with a script without use of `-e`. In other words, prior
versions allowed:

[source,text]
bin/gremlin.sh gremlin.groovy

Such a command must now be written as:

[source,text]
bin/gremlin.sh -i gremlin.groovy

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1283[TINKERPOP-1283],
link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1651[TINKERPOP-1651]

==== GraphTraversal valueMap() Signature Updated

`GraphTraversal.valueMap(includeTokens,propertyKeys...)` now returns a `Map<Object,E>` to account for the presence of `T.id` or `T.label` if you pass `true` to it.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1283[TINKERPOP-1483]

==== HADOOP_GREMLIN_LIBS and Spark

The TinkerPop reference documentation has always mentioned that the `gremlin-spark` `/lib` directory needed to be
added to `HADOOP_GREMLIN_LIBS` environment variable. In reality, that was not truly necessary. With Spark 1.x having
`gremlin-spark` in `HADOOP_GREMLIN_LIBS` hasn't been a problem, but Spark 2.0 introduces a check for duplicate jars
on the path which will cause job initialization to fail. As a result, going forward with TinkerPop 3.3.0, the
`gremlin-spark` `lib` directory should not be included in `HADOOP_GREMLIN_LIBS`.

==== Gremlin-server.sh and Init Scripts

`gremlin-server.sh` is now also an init script and can no longer be started without parameters. To start it in the
foreground with defaults like previous usage, please use the `console` parameter. Also, `gremlin-server.sh` will
continue to start in the foreground when provided a yaml configuration file.

How to install as a service has been added to the link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.0/reference/#_as_a_service[Reference Documentation - As A Service].

The switch name has changed for installing dependencies. `-i` has been deprecated and replaced by `install`.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-980[TINKERPOP-980], link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.0/reference/#_configuring_2[Reference Documentation - Server Configuration].

==== Removal of useMapperFromGraph

The `userMapperFromGraph` serialization configuration option was used to allow the IO configurations of a specific
graph to be assigned to a specific serializer. This feature has been removed completely now. Please use the
`ioRegistries` configuration option to add one or more specific `Graph` serialization capabilities to a serializer.

==== Gremlin-server.bat

The switch name has changed for installing dependencies. `-i` has been deprecated and replaced by `install`.

==== SparkGraphComputer GryoRegistrator

Historically, `SparkGraphComputer` has  used `GryoSerializer` to handle the serialization of objects in Spark. The reason
this exists is because TinkerPop uses a shaded version of Kryo and thus, couldn't use the standard `KryoSerializer`-model
provided by Spark. However, a "shim model" was created which allows for the shaded and unshaded versions of Kryo to
interact with one another. To this end, `KryoSerializer` can now be used with a `GryoRegistrator`. The properties file
for a `SparkGraphComputer` now looks as follows:

```
spark.serializer=org.apache.spark.serializer.KryoSerializer
spark.kryo.registrator=org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.spark.structure.io.gryo.GryoRegistrator
```

If the old `GryoSerializer` model is desired, then the properties file should simply look as before:

```
spark.serializer=org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.spark.structure.io.gryo.GryoSerializer
```

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1389[TINKERPOP-1389]

==== ScriptInputFormat

The API for the script provided to a `ScriptInputFormat` has changed slightly. The signature for `parse(line, factory)`
is now simply `parse(line)`. The inclusion of `factory` was deprecated in 3.1.2. Instead of using the {{factory}} to
get the {{StarGraph}} there is a {{graph}} variable in the glocal context of the script. Simply use that directly in
the script.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1137[TINKERPOP-1137],
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.3.0-SNAPSHOT/reference/#script-io-format[Reference Documentation - Script I/O Format]

=== Upgrading for Providers

IMPORTANT: It is recommended that providers also review all the upgrade instructions specified for users. Many of the
changes there may prove important for the provider's implementation.

==== Graph System Providers

===== GremlinPlugin

The previously deprecated `GremlinPlugin` system has been removed. The old `GremlinPlugin` interface formerly resided
in the `org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.groovy.plugin` package of `gremlin-groovy`. This interface was replaced by an
interface of the same name in 3.2.4, which now resides in the `org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.jsr223` package in
`gremlin-core`. Obviously, existing plugins will need to be updated to use this new interface.

The plugin model has changed slightly to be more generic and not specifically bound to Groovy based script engines.
Under the new model, the plugin simply returns `Customizer` instances that can be applied generically to any
`ScriptEngine` or specifically to a particular `ScriptEngine`. More details can be found in the
link:https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/x.y.z/dev/provider/#gremlin-plugins[Provider Documentation]

==== Graph Database Providers

===== Test Suite Removal

A number of test suites that were previously deprecated have been removed which should reduce the burden on graph
providers who are implementing TinkerPop. Test suites related to perfrmance based on `junit-benchmarks` have been
removed as have the suites in `gremlin-groovy-test` (in fact, this entire module has been removed). Specifically,
providers should be concerned with breaking changes related to the removal of:

* `StructurePerformanceSuite`
* `ProcessPerformanceSuite`
* `GroovyEnvironmentPerformanceSuite`
* `GroovyProcessStandardSuite`
* `GroovyProcessComputerSuite`
* `GroovyEnvironmentSuite`
* `GroovyEnvironmentIntegrateSuite`

Those graph providers who relied on these tests should simply remove them from their respective test suites. Beware of
`OptOut` annotations that reference tests in these suites as test failure will occur if those references are not
removed.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1235[TINKERPOP-1235], link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1612[TINKERPOP-1612]

===== TransactionException

The `AbstractTransaction.TransactionException` class is now just `TransactionException` which extends `RuntimeExcetpion`
rather than `Exception`. Providers should consider using this exception to wrap their own on calls to
`Transaction.commit()` or `Transaction.rollback()`. By throwing this exception, the TinkerPop stack can better respond
to transaction problems and it allows for more common, generalized error handling for users.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1004[TINKERPOP-1004]

==== Driver Providers

===== SASL Byte Array

Gremlin Server no longer supports accepting a byte array for the value passed to the "sasl" parameter in
authentication messages. It only accepts a Base64 encoded string.

See: link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1603[TINKERPOP-1603]
