- internal batching of individually received Persistent messages
- testing fault tolerance of Processor in presence of random
* journaling failures
* processing failures
- single and bulk deletion of messages
- single and bulk deletion of snapshots
- run journal and snapshot store as system actors
- rename physical parameter in delete methods to permanent
- StashSupport.prepend docs and implementation enhancements
* Added LogEvent subclasses with new field for transporting the MDC custom values.
* Slf4jLogger now takes MDC values from new LogEvent field, puts all in MDC before appending the log, and removes all after.
* New trait DiagnosticLoggingAdapter was introduced, which extends LoggingAdapter and adds MDC support with methods to get, set and clear MDC values.
* New factory method added to Logging for getting loggers with MDC support.
* BusLogging was changed to create new LogEvents including the MDC values.
* Actors can mixin with DiagnosticActorLogging which defines a diagnostic logger "log", has a hook to override for defining MDC values per message, and overrides aroundReceive for setting and clearing MDC around receive execution.
* Proper documentation was added for Scala and Java under the Logging/Slf4j section.
- Persistent channel
- ConfirmablePersistent message type delivered by channel
- Sender resolution performance improvements
* unstash() instead of unstashAll()
These enhancements required the following changes
- Unified implementation of processor stash and user stash
- Persistence message plugin API separated from implementation
- Physical deletion of messages
- batch-write of persistent messages (user API)
- batch-write of events (in EventsourcedProcessor)
- command processing in EventsourcedProcessor by unstashing messages one-by-one from the internal stash
* fixes performance issues that come up with unstashAll
- commands are not looped through journal actor but processed directly
- initial performance tests
* command sourcing
* event sourcing
* event sourcing with user stash operations
- suppress stack traces in tests
* Separate routing logic, to be usable stand alone, e.g. in actors
* Simplify RouterConfig, only a factory
* Move reading of config from Deployer to the RouterConfig
* Distiction between Pool and Group router types
* Remove usage of actorFor, use ActorSelection
* Management messages to add and remove routees
* Simplify the internals of RoutedActorCell & co
* Move resize specific code to separate RoutedActorCell subclass
* Change resizer api to only return capacity change
* Resizer only allowed together with Pool
* Re-implement all routers, and keep old api during deprecation phase
* Replace ClusterRouterConfig, deprecation
* Rewrite documentation
* Migration guide
* Also includes related ticket:
+act #3087 Create nicer Props factories for RouterConfig
- Journal plugin API for storage backends with asynchronous client API (default impl: in-memory journal)
- Journal plugin API for storage backends with synchronous client API (default impl: LevelDB journal)
- Snapshot store plugin API (default impl: local filesystem snapshot store)
- capture and save snapshots of processor state
- start processor recovery from saved snapshots
- snapshot storage on local filesystem
- snapshot store completely isolated from journal
- LevelDB journal modularized (and completely re-rwritten)
- In-memory journal removed
- introduce around life cycle hooks for symmetry with aroundReceive
- no custom processor-specific life cycle hooks needed any more
- preStart and preRestart can be overridden with empty implementation
(interceptors ensure that super.preXxx calls are still executed)
- all around life cycle hooks can be final
- standard life cycle hooks are non-final to preserve composability with existing traits (FSM, ...)
The most prominent changes compared to eventsourced are:
- No central processor and channel registry any more
- Auto-recovery of processors on start and restart (can be disabled)
- Recovery of processor networks doesn't require coordination
- Explicit channel activation not needed any more
- Message sequence numbers generated per processor (no gaps)
- Sender references are journaled along with messages
- Processors can determine their recovery status
- No custom API on extension object, only messages
- Journal created by extension from config, not by application
- Applications only interact with processors and channels via messages
- Internal design prepared for having processor-specific journal actors (for later optimization possibilities)
Further additions and changes during review:
- Allow processor implementation classes to use inherited stash
- Channel support to resolve (potentially invalid) sender references
- Logical intead of physical deletion of messages
- Pinned dispatcher for LevelDB journal
- Processor can handle failures during recovery
- Message renamed to Persistent
This prototype has the following limitations:
- Serialization of persistent messages and their payload via JavaSerializer only (will be configurable later)
- The LevelDB journal implementation based on a LevelDB Java port, not the native LevelDB (will be configurable later)
The following features will be added later using separate tickets:
- Snapshot-based recovery
- Reliable channels
- Journal plugin API
- Optimizations
- ...
* This can't go into 2.2.x since ScalaTest 1.9.2-SNAP2 has source incompatible changes and the dependecy in akka-multi-node-node-testkit would force people to upgrade.
- add “mailbox-requirement” key to dispatcher section
- split out mailbox section, add akka.actor.default-mailbox
- rewrite findMarker method and use it for Props.create() and getting
the required mailbox of an actor
- add ProducesMessageQueue trait for MailboxType so that requirements
can be checked before trying to create the actor for real
- verify actor as well as dispatcher requirements for message queue
before creation, even in remote-deployed case
- change MessageDispatcher constructor to take a Configurator, add that
to migration guide
Props constructors need to be deprecated instead of being mutated
because we cannot just start throwing exceptions in people’s existing
code. Props.withCreator is deprecated for similar reasons, but also
because Props are about the creators, so replacing that after the fact
is not good style.
- also make a Write’s “ack” be a Tcp.Event (to suit pipelines)
- add stress test for BackpressureBuffer
- add it to SslTlsSupportSpec
- add it to the docs
- remove TcpPipelineHandler’s type parameter
- remove not-accept() failure test (which is completely bogus)
- add comments explaining more about TcpPipelineHandler.Init
- remove the funny “manager” from the Server example
also included:
- a complete rewrite of the TCP docs based on real/tested/working code
samples
- an EchoServer implementation which handles all the edge cases,
available in Java & Scala
- renamed StopReading to SuspendReading to match up with ResumeReading
- addition of Inbox.watch()
- Inbox RST docs for Java(!) and Scala
not included:
- ScalaDoc / JavaDoc for all IO stuff
