Type Members

  1. trait Act extends Actor

    This trait provides a DSL for writing the inner workings of an actor, e.g.

    This trait provides a DSL for writing the inner workings of an actor, e.g. for quickly trying things out in the REPL. It makes the following keywords available:

    • become mapped to context.become(_, discardOld = true)
    • becomeStacked mapped to context.become(_, discardOld = false)
    • unbecome mapped to context.unbecome
    • setup for implementing preStart()
    • whenFailing for implementing preRestart()
    • whenRestarted for implementing postRestart()
    • teardown for implementing postStop

    Using the life-cycle keywords multiple times results in replacing the content of the respective hook.

  2. trait ActWithStash extends ActorDSL.Act with Stash

    Use this trait when defining an akka.actor.Actor with akka.actor.Stash, since just using actor()(new Act with Stash{}) will not be able to see the Stash component due to type erasure.

Value Members

  1. def actor[T <: Actor](factory: ActorRefFactory)(ctor: ⇒ T)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T]): ActorRef

    Create an actor with an automatically generated name from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    Create an actor with an automatically generated name from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    factory

    is an implicit akka.actor.ActorRefFactory, which can either be an akka.actor.ActorSystem or an akka.actor.ActorContext, where the latter is always implicitly available within an akka.actor.Actor.

    ctor

    is a by-name argument which captures an akka.actor.Actor factory; do not make the generated object accessible to code outside and do not return the same object upon subsequent invocations.

  2. def actor[T <: Actor](factory: ActorRefFactory, name: String)(ctor: ⇒ T)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T]): ActorRef

    Create an actor from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    Create an actor from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    factory

    is an implicit akka.actor.ActorRefFactory, which can either be an akka.actor.ActorSystem or an akka.actor.ActorContext, where the latter is always implicitly available within an akka.actor.Actor.

    name

    is the name, which must be unique within the context of its parent; defaults to null which will assign a name automatically.

    ctor

    is a by-name argument which captures an akka.actor.Actor factory; do not make the generated object accessible to code outside and do not return the same object upon subsequent invocations.

  3. def actor[T <: Actor](name: String)(ctor: ⇒ T)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T], factory: ActorRefFactory): ActorRef

    Create an actor from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    Create an actor from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    name

    is the name, which must be unique within the context of its parent.

    ctor

    is a by-name argument which captures an akka.actor.Actor factory; do not make the generated object accessible to code outside and do not return the same object upon subsequent invocations.

    factory

    is an implicit akka.actor.ActorRefFactory, which can either be an akka.actor.ActorSystem or an akka.actor.ActorContext, where the latter is always implicitly available within an akka.actor.Actor.

  4. def actor[T <: Actor](ctor: ⇒ T)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T], factory: ActorRefFactory): ActorRef

    Create an actor from the given thunk which must produce an akka.actor.Actor.

    ctor

    is a by-name argument which captures an akka.actor.Actor factory; do not make the generated object accessible to code outside and do not return the same object upon subsequent invocations.

    factory

    is an implicit akka.actor.ActorRefFactory, which can either be an akka.actor.ActorSystem or an akka.actor.ActorContext, where the latter is always implicitly available within an akka.actor.Actor.
