EdgeActor

Bases: Actor

Actor for processing edge data.

Operates in three modes determined by configuration:

Static mode (from/to set): both vertex types are declared at config time. The schema Edge is created during finish_init and the __call__ path is unchanged from the original implementation.

Dynamic mode (at least one of source_role/target_role set, with source_type_field/target_type_field accepted as legacy aliases): vertex types for the dynamic side(s) are resolved at extraction time by looking up accumulator slots populated by an upstream VertexRouterActor (slot segment = role or type_field) or a VertexActor with a matching role. The schema Edge is created—or retrieved from cache—per unique (source_type, target_type, relation) triple encountered.

Multi-link mode (links list set): each item in links becomes a dedicated sub-EdgeActor that runs in sequence per row, emitting one edge intent each. Use when one flat row encodes multiple distinct relationships.

VertexRouterActor

Bases: VertexProducingActor

Routes documents to the correct VertexActor based on a type field.

The merged observation (document + same-location transform buffer) is passed through to the selected :class:VertexActor unchanged. Projection uses the same from / vertex_from_map contract as a standalone vertex step.

Vertices are accumulated at lindex.extend((role, 0)). role is normalized by config validation (defaults to :attr:type_field when omitted), so runtime slot addressing uses a single internal key. A downstream dynamic EdgeActor references this slot via source_role / target_role (or source_type_field / target_type_field) using the same segment name.
