[GraphHopper] can I add nodes and edges to the graph on the fly?

[graphhopper newbie]

Thanks for the reply,
The use case makes the situation dynamic. Assume that you have free
floating carsharing vehicles. Let us assume that these vehicles can be
parked everywehere. what I wanted to do is to periodically link these
vehicles to the closest nodes in the original street graph (remove old
links when vehicles change their positions). This way the vehicles will be
represented as nodes in the graph and routing will be easier later. My
routing algorithm has to be able to switch from walk to drive mode when
such vehicle node is found. the goal is to have walk-drive-walk route in
one Dijkstra run.

Regards,
