             Summary: Make pipeline extension require less coding
                 Key: FLINK-2116
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2116
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Machine Learning Library
            Reporter: Mikio Braun
            Priority: Minor


Right now, implementing methods from the pipelines for new types, or even adding new methods to pipelines requires many steps:

1) implementing methods for new types
  implement implicit of the corresponding class encapsulating the operation in the companion object

2) adding methods to the pipeline
  - adding a method
  - adding a trait for the operation
  - implement implicit in the companion object

These are all objects which contain many generic parameters, so reducing the work would be great.

The goal should be that you can really focus on the code to add, and have as little boilerplate code as possible.
