`mvn clean install -DskipIntegrationTests=false` passes.
API summary:
- All methods are generated using groovy template files.
- Naming conventions for js are very similar to java, so no significant
changes there from the java one (except `in() and `from()` which are reserved
keywords).
- `toList()` and `next()` are used, in the same way as the rest of the
GLVs, except that it causes async execution (no blocking API is provided, as it
won't be usable in Node.js): `next()` returns an async iterator and `toList()`
a promise that gets fulfilled with an `Array`.
Usage samples:
```js
const vertices = await g.V().toList();
```
```js
for await (const vertex of g.V()) {
console.log(vertex.label);
}
```
> Provide a Javascript Gremlin Language Variant
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TINKERPOP-1489
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-1489
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: language-variant
> Affects Versions: 3.2.5
> Reporter: Jorge Bay
>
> It would be nice to have a Javascript Gremlin Language Variant that could
> work with any ES5 runtime, specially the ones that support
> [CommonJs|http://requirejs.org/docs/commonjs.html], like Node.js.
> Nashorn, the engine shipped with JDK 8+, does not implement CommonJs but
> provides [additional
> extensions|https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/Nashorn/Nashorn+extensions]
> making modular JavaScript possible. Nashorn should be supported in order to
> run glv tests under the same infrastructure (JDK8).
