## Class GraphTraversalSource

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.dsl.graph.GraphTraversalSource

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    AutoCloseable, Cloneable, TraversalSource

      public class GraphTraversalSource
      extends Object
      implements TraversalSource

  A `GraphTraversalSource` is the primary DSL of the Gremlin traversal machine. It provides access to all the configurations and steps for Turing complete graph computing. Any DSL can be constructed based on the methods of both `GraphTraversalSource` and `GraphTraversal`.
