Claudio Martella commented on GIRAPH-47:
----------------------------------------

another much easier way, at least for me, would be just to add a getContext() inside of BasicVertex and return GraphMapper's Context. In this case I'd guess we could also change the definition of Mapper from <Object, Object, Object, Object>, although it should work anyway if the the object to write implements toString() accordingly.

Or, third possibility, adding an emit(Writable key, Writable value) method to BasicVertex that forwards to Context.write().

> It would be quite useful for vertices to reach some worker-related information stored i.e. in the GraphState class.
> This information could be exported as a parameter to pre/post/Application/Superstep like this:
> public void preApplication(Configurable workerObject);
> public void postApplication(Configurable workerObject);
> public void preSuperstep(Configurable workerObject);
> public void postSuperstep(Configurable workerObject);
> public Configurable getWorkerObject();
> Another possibility is to add a Context inner class to BasicVertex to store this information.
