Hey all. Im starting to figure out the graph DSL and I got curious about 
something and I am not sure it is possible. In the graph below, I have a 
Source.queue setup and it is working out great to add new elements to 
programmatically later.

Now, what I am curious about is if I can somehow offer new elements to the 
graph (say from user input, compared to the normal cron add) and get there 
materialized value without completing the graph. 

Example situation, user input causes 5 elements to get dropped into the 
graph, and I want to get the 5 corresponding values from the input out the 
end without affecting the continuously added cron elements.

It seems like 
http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/scala/stream/stream-graphs.html#Accessing_the_materialized_value_inside_the_Graph
 
might be close to what I am thinking of, but I can't quite figure out 
if\how it applies. 

private val alwaysOnFlow = {
    val parallelLevel = 5
    Flow.fromGraph(GraphDSL.create() { implicit builder =>
      import GraphDSL.Implicits._

      val dispatcher = builder.add(Balance[S3Time](parallelLevel))
      val merger = builder.add(Merge[ArchiveResult](parallelLevel))

      for (i <- 0 until parallelLevel) {
        val bcast = builder.add(Broadcast[S3Time](2))
        val zip = builder.add(Zip[LogSet, LogSet])

        dispatcher.out(i) ~> bcast ~> imposterFlow ~> zip.in0
                             bcast ~> archiveFlow ~> zip.in1

        zip.out ~> resultsFlow ~> merger.in(i)
      }
      FlowShape(dispatcher.in, merger.out)
    })
  }

  val alwaysOnGraph = Source.queue[S3Time](50, OverflowStrategy.fail)
    .map { time =>
      info(s"Starting on ${time.toString}")
      time
    }
    .via(alwaysOnFlow)
    .to(Sink.foreach { res =>
      info(s"Finished processing ${res.minute}")
    })
