Creating a customer serializer Io Registry in Java
Hey folks,
I've got a somewhat unusual use case I'd like to bring to G.V(). Some users have customer serializers configured on their servers and I'd like to find a way to allow them to configure G.V() using those custom serializers. My initial thought was to create a "custom" IoRegistry that loads those classes via reflection based on user input information (e.g. jar path and class name). Would that be the correct way to load custom serializers into a client Java codebase?
I've been looking at some custom serializer examples but they focus mostly on the server side of things, not so much the client, gremlin-driver part of it

Solution
cool, i think that clarifies everything, im clear on the approach to take moving forward for G.V(), the best solution is to simply allow onboarding a user's custom IO registry via a packaged jar, likely the same one they would drop under lib for their JG install
