Signature

def extractActorSystem: Directive1[ActorSystem] = extract { ctx

Description

Extracts the ActorSystemActorSystem from the RequestContextRequestContext, which can be useful when the external API in your route needs one.

Example

Scala
sourceval route = extractActorSystem { actorSystem =>
  complete(s"Actor System extracted, hash=${actorSystem.hashCode()}")
}

// tests:
Get("/") ~> route ~> check {
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual s"Actor System extracted, hash=${system.hashCode()}"
}
Java
sourceimport static akka.http.javadsl.server.Directives.extractActorSystem;

final Route route = extractActorSystem(actorSystem ->
  complete("Actor System extracted, hash=" + actorSystem.hashCode())
);

// tests:
testRoute(route).run(HttpRequest.GET("/"))
  .assertEntity("Actor System extracted, hash=" + system().hashCode());
