How to return a Vertex in the tinkerpop/gremlin format instead of the DSE graph format?

Question

I am trying to return a Vertex (in tinkerpop format) that it was just created with Gremlin:

DseCluster dseCluster = DseCluster.builder()
        .addContactPoint         


        

Answer 1

According to the lengthy discussion I had with Datastax Team through jira and emails:

It is indeed possible to have Fluent API and get back pure Gremlin/tinkerpop objects. This is possible as illustrated here (java-dse graph 1.x documentation) using next(), toList() directly on GraphTraversalSource and not using executeGraph() which will return the DSE Objects.

So the above code changes to:

Vertex user = graph.addV("User")
                 .property("username", "testuser").next();

where graph is a GraphTraversalSource object and Vertex is a org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.Vertex object.
