TINKERPOP-1274: GraphSON 2.0 [revised]
For context, a precise description is provided in the PR for the first
version of the fix: #351. Please see this first for initial context.
This PR provides initial set of features defined in #351, plus the
following:
- Types for Graph objects.
- Types for **all** numeric values.
- New type IDs format.
- Avoid serializing empty properties field.
As a reminder the format for types is the following:
- A value not typed : `value`
- A value typed : `{"@type":"typeName", "@value":value}`
## New type IDs format
A type ID is now composed of 2 parts, the "domain" and the type name. A
"domain" can be used by any implementor to implement their own data type,
avoiding collisions with the existing TinkerPop type IDs. The default domain
for Graph object is "gremlin".
## Types for all numeric values
A type is now present for every numeric value, the types have been renamed
to be more understandable with regards to their memory sizes or kinds. As a
reference, here is a description of all currently existing types and their
corresponding Java implementation:
- Java `Integer`: "gremlin:int32"
- Java `Long`: "gremlin:int64"
- Java `Short`: "gremlin:int16"
- Java `Float`: "gremlin:float"
- Java `Double`: "gremlin:double"
## Types for all Graph objects.
New typeIDs introduced in #351 (time types, UUIDs, etc..) now follow the
type format defined here: "domain:typename".
Types have now been included for Graph-specific objects, here is an
exhaustive list of the existing types handled so far and their corresponding
IDs:
- `Vertex` -> "gremlin:vertex"
- `Edge` -> "gremlin:edge"
- `VertexPropery` -> "gremlin:vertexproperty"
- `Property` -> "gremlin:property"
- `Path` -> "gremlin:path"
- `Tree` -> "gremlin:tree"
- `Graph` -> "gremlin:graph"
- `Metrics` -> "gremlin:metrics"
- `TraversalMetrics` -> `gremlin:traversalmetrics"
This improvement defines a requirement to the serialization format which is
that every type *must* have a Jackson serializer and deserializer defined on
the source `ObjectMapper`. Previous not defined serializers and deserializers
have been added in this PR.
Code-wise, it's pretty much the same than for #351, the big intake in code
here is the addition of the deserializers for all Graph objects, a big
simplification to the serializers (`GraphSONSerializersV2d0`), the addition of
the "domain" to the type system, and making that new typeID format configurable
to users through the `TinkerPopJacksonModule`.
`mvn clean install` test suite passes, and it's rebased on top of current
`master`.
