# ADK Workflow Node Output Sample
## Overview
This sample demonstrates how to manage component outputs and structure data between nodes in an **ADK Workflow**.
When stringing nodes together, it's critical to know how the ADK framework passes data along edges. This sample shows:
1. Returning a raw string (it gets automatically wrapped in an `Event`).
1. Returning an explicit `Event` for more granular control over routes and state.
1. Generating a structured dictionary via `Agent(output_schema=MyModel)`.
1. Automatically coercing that raw dictionary back into a fully formed Pydantic model simply by defining it as a type-hint parameter in the Python function.
## Sample Inputs
- `cyberpunk future`
- `gardening tips for beginners`
## Graph
```mermaid
graph TD
START --> generate_string_output
generate_string_output --> generate_event_output
generate_event_output --> generate_pydantic_output
generate_pydantic_output --> consume_pydantic_output
```
## How To
1. **Return raw types (string, dict, list):** The node runner will automatically wrap primitives in an `Event(output=...)`.
```python
def generate_string_output(node_input: str):
return "Processed input: " + node_input
```
1. **Return an Event explicitly:** Use this when you also need to emit a `route` or modify `ctx.state`.
```python
def generate_event_output(node_input: str):
return Event(output=f"Wrapped output: {node_input}")
```
1. **Generate structured data from an LLM:** Pass a Pydantic class to the `Agent`'s `output_schema`. The LLM returns a dictionary/JSON matching the structure.
```python
class TopicDetails(BaseModel):
title: str
description: str
category: str
generate_pydantic_output = Agent(
name="generate_pydantic_output",
output_schema=TopicDetails,
)
```
1. **Consume structured data in a function:** Simply type-hint the parameter. `FunctionNode` leverages Pydantic to parse the dictionary back into your fully accessible `TopicDetails` class automatically before your function starts running.
```python
def consume_pydantic_output(node_input: TopicDetails):
# Type coercion converts dict to model. Now you have .title, .category, etc.
return f"Title: {node_input.title}"
```
