Goblin no longer supports Titan 1.1 serialization? about goblin HOT 4 CLOSED

The issue here is that we decided to restructure these project so they coincide more closely with the TinkerPop release schedule. In order to provide consistent versioning, the Gremlin Language Variant and driver that were bundled with the beta releases of Goblin have been extracted to the aiogremlin library so that they can be regularly rebased against the official Gremlin-Python. aiogremlin will now follow the TinkerPop release schedule. The current TinkerPop, as well as aiogremlin, is in version 3.2.4. What this means is that in order to use aiogremlin, you must be using Gremlin Server 3.2.4 as well. GraphSON1 support is being phased out of the TinkerPop project, as GraphSON2 is stabilizing and GraphSON3 is being developed.

Therefore, to use Goblin with any version of any graph database (Titan, DSE, Neo4j, JanusGraph), you must be using the proper version of TinkerPop. Since Goblin 2.0 depends on aiogremlin 3.2.4, it requires Gremlin Server 3.2.4

Now, your choices here are:

1. Continue using the older version of Goblin.

2. Configure Titan to use a newer TP version.

3. (BEST OPTION) Move to JanusGraph. As far as I understand it, Titan is no longer under active development. The community of developers responsible for Titan have moved their work to JanusGraph, which is backed by the Linux foundation and developers from Google, IBM, etc.

Hopefully that is clear. I really think JanusGraph is the future, and since it is an evolution of Titan, the migration should be straightforward. Let me know if you have more questions.

Thanks for the quick reply Dave!

I was trying to compare all the graph database options using Goblin as the main Gremlin interface. I was hoping I could compare Titan 1.1 and JanusGraph by stress testing via Goblin, but I've come to the same conclusion that JanusGraph is essentially updated and active Titan.
I'll stick to JanusGraph in the foreseeable future :)

By any chance do you know how to use Goblin with Neo4j, specifically version 3.x or above? All the Gremlin Server plugins seem to only work with 2.x, such as this one from what was formerly Aurelius or this neo4j container disclaimer. Let me know if you happen to know anything about that, as it seems Neo4j hasn't been supporting Gremlin too well recently.

Thanks again!

TBH I'm not really sure about Neo4j 3.x line and TinkerPop. The gremlin users google group should be a good place to get answers about this.

Btw, I'm working on optimizing some quick and dirty queries that were written for Goblin 2.0, be sure to update to the newest version when released. Should be tomorrow at the latest.
