Andra Lungu updated FLINK-2563:
-------------------------------
Summary: Gelly's Graph Algorithm Interface is limited (was: Gelly's Graph
Algorithm Interface is limites)
> Gelly's Graph Algorithm Interface is limited
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-2563
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2563
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Gelly
> Affects Versions: 0.9, 0.10
> Reporter: Andra Lungu
>
> Right now, Gelly's `GraphAlgorithm` interface only allows users/devs to
> return the same type of Graph.
> public Graph<K, VV, EV> run(Graph<K, VV, EV> input) throws Exception;
> In numerous cases, one needs to return a single value, or a modified graph.
> Off the top of my head, say one would like to implement a Triangle Count
> library method. That takes as input a Graph and returns the total number of
> triangles.
> https://github.com/andralungu/gelly-partitioning/blob/master/src/main/java/example/GSATriangleCount.java
> With the current Gelly abstractions, something like this cannot be supported.
> Also if I initially had a Graph of Long, Long, NullValue and my algorithm
> changed the edge values to type Double, for instance, I would again have
> created an implementation which is not supported.
