Method Detail

source

public static <T> Source<T,NotUsed> source(ActorRef<Topic.Command<T>> topicActor,
                                                 int bufferSize,
                                                 OverflowStrategy overflowStrategy)

Create a source that will subscribe to a topic and stream messages published to the topic. Can be materialized multiple times, each materialized stream will contain messages published after it was started.

Note that it is not possible to propagate the backpressure from the running stream to the pub sub topic, if the stream is backpressuring published messages are buffered up to a limit and if the limit is hit the configurable OverflowStrategy decides what happens. It is not possible to use the Backpressure strategy.

Parameters:

topicActor - The actor ref for an akka.actor.typed.pubsub.Topic actor representing a specific topic.

bufferSize - The maximum number of messages to buffer if the stream applies backpressure

overflowStrategy - Strategy to use once the buffer is full.

sink

public static <T> Sink<T,NotUsed> sink(ActorRef<Topic.Command<T>> topicActor)

Create a sink that will publish each message to the given topic. Note that there is no backpressure from the topic, so care must be taken to not publish messages at a higher rate than that can be handled by subscribers. If the topic does not have any subscribers when a message is published or the topic actor is stopped, the message is sent to dead letters.

Parameters:

topicActor - The actor ref for an akka.actor.typed.pubsub.Topic actor representing a specific topic.
