Matt Frantz commented on TINKERPOP3-974:
----------------------------------------
[~spmallette] One relevant one is TINKERPOP3-969 (respawn), which would allow a
traversal to be encapsulated more effectively.
There are more ideas in Chapter 3 of a document that has stalled in my work

> Saving headless traversals for reuse (clone Iterator Fun)

> Key: TINKERPOP3-974
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP3-974
> Project: TinkerPop 3
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: process
> Affects Versions: 3.0.2-incubating
> Reporter: Sebastian Estevez

> It would be very useful to be able to do something like this:
> {code}
> gremlin> possibleFriends =
> out('rated').inE('rated').has('stars',5).outV().groupCount().order(local).by(valueDecr).limit(local,1).mapKeys()
> gremlin> g.V('u2590').possibleFriends
> {code}
> Marko suggested the following workaround method using `; null` and `.clone()`
> {code}
> gremlin> possibleFriends =
> out('rated').inE('rated').has('stars',5).outV().groupCount().order(local).by(valueDecr).limit(local,1).mapKeys();
> null
> ==>null
> gremlin> g.V('u2590').map(possibleFriends.clone())
> ==>v[u4277]
> gremlin> g.V('u2590').map(possibleFriends.clone())
> ==>v[u4277]
> gremlin> g.V('u2590').map(possibleFriends.clone())
> ==>v[u4277]
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends.clone()
> gremlin> possibleFriends
> gremlin> g.V('u2590').map(possibleFriends.clone())
> The traversal strategies are complete and the traversal can no longer be
> modulated
> Display stack trace? [yN]
> {code}
> https://gist.github.com/okram/9feb6940c749ed9a3058
> Having a nice way of breaking down complex gremlin into functions and using
> them later would help modularize gremlin queries and improve readability and
> maintenance.
