gremlin - How can I search for a vertex and create edge in a single query? -

i using gremlin query search vertices given vertex.

v.both("edgelabel").has("propertykey", "27826345"); 

this query returning bunch of vertices. creating edges 'v' returned vertices simple iterator.

now question is:
is there process/query style available through can search vertices , create edges in same query ?

i have tried query:

 v.both('edgelabel').has('propertykey','27826345').gather(){g.addedge(v,it,'test_label')} 

but i'm getting error :

no signature of method: groovy.lang.missingmethodexception.addedge()

i using gremlin-groovy scriptengine execute query java class.

thank in advance.

in gremlin 2.3.0, there 3 new steps:

 linkin  linkout  linkboth 

please see gremlindocs (http://gremlindocs.com) more information on how use them.

note these pipes yield sideeffect (the edge generated) can cap pipe if need edge.
