"""Pipeline, the top-level Beam object.

A pipeline holds a DAG of data transforms. Conceptually the nodes of the DAG
are transforms (:class:`~apache_beam.transforms.ptransform.PTransform` objects)
and the edges are values (mostly :class:`~apache_beam.pvalue.PCollection`
objects). The transforms take as inputs one or more PValues and output one or
more :class:`~apache_beam.pvalue.PValue` s.

The pipeline offers functionality to traverse the graph.  The actual operation
to be executed for each node visited is specified through a runner object.

Typical usage::

  # Create a pipeline object using a local runner for execution.
  with beam.Pipeline('DirectRunner') as p:

    # Add to the pipeline a "Create" transform. When executed this
    # transform will produce a PCollection object with the specified values.
    pcoll = p | 'Create' >> beam.Create([1, 2, 3])

    # Another transform could be applied to pcoll, e.g., writing to a text file.
    # For other transforms, refer to transforms/ directory.
    pcoll | 'Write' >> beam.io.WriteToText('./output')

    # run() will execute the DAG stored in the pipeline.  The execution of the
    # nodes visited is done using the specified local runner.
