Philipp Hofmann dff87ad04f =doc #18849 Improve orthography & grammar
For all docs:
* remove consecutive duplicate words
* Improve use of commata
* Improve use of articles
* Improve consistent use of singular/plural
* Simplify run-on sentences

Review iterations:

* Integrate @rkuhn review points
- bring back the comma for the interjection
- ‘to not’ is not inverted if the infinitive form still follows
- Elegantly connect a run on sentence with a semicolon
- Correct semantic error
- Strictly monotonically preserve math expressions
- Use correct english futures

* Cross sync changes to files in scala, java & java-lambda documentation files using git diff -u | patch

Persistence Query for LevelDB
#############################
This is documentation for the LevelDB implementation of the :ref:`persistence-query-scala` API.
Note that implementations for other journals may have different semantics.
.. warning::
This module is marked as **“experimental”** as of its introduction in Akka 2.4.0. We will continue to
improve this API based on our users feedback, which implies that while we try to keep incompatible
changes to a minimum the binary compatibility guarantee for maintenance releases does not apply to the
contents of the ``akka.persistence.query`` package.
Dependencies
============
Akka persistence LevelDB query implementation is bundled in the ``akka-persistence-query-experimental`` artifact.
Make sure that you have the following dependency in your project::
"com.typesafe.akka" %% "akka-persistence-query-experimental" % "@version@" @crossString@
How to get the ReadJournal
==========================
The ``ReadJournal`` is retrieved via the ``akka.persistence.query.PersistenceQuery``
extension:
.. includecode:: code/docs/persistence/query/LeveldbPersistenceQueryDocSpec.scala#get-read-journal
Supported Queries
=================
EventsByPersistenceIdQuery and CurrentEventsByPersistenceIdQuery
----------------------------------------------------------------
``eventsByPersistenceId`` is used for retrieving events for a specific ``PersistentActor``
identified by ``persistenceId``.
.. includecode:: code/docs/persistence/query/LeveldbPersistenceQueryDocSpec.scala#EventsByPersistenceId
You can retrieve a subset of all events by specifying ``fromSequenceNr`` and ``toSequenceNr``
or use ``0L`` and ``Long.MaxValue`` respectively to retrieve all events. Note that
the corresponding sequence number of each event is provided in the ``EventEnvelope``,
which makes it possible to resume the stream at a later point from a given sequence number.
The returned event stream is ordered by sequence number, i.e. the same order as the
``PersistentActor`` persisted the events. The same prefix of stream elements (in same order)
are returned for multiple executions of the query, except for when events have been deleted.
The stream is not completed when it reaches the end of the currently stored events,
but it continues to push new events when new events are persisted.
Corresponding query that is completed when it reaches the end of the currently
stored events is provided by ``currentEventsByPersistenceId``.
The LevelDB write journal is notifying the query side as soon as events are persisted, but for
efficiency reasons the query side retrieves the events in batches that sometimes can
be delayed up to the configured ``refresh-interval`` or given ``RefreshInterval``
hint.
The stream is completed with failure if there is a failure in executing the query in the
backend journal.
AllPersistenceIdsQuery and CurrentPersistenceIdsQuery
-----------------------------------------------------
``allPersistenceIds`` is used for retrieving all ``persistenceIds`` of all persistent actors.
.. includecode:: code/docs/persistence/query/LeveldbPersistenceQueryDocSpec.scala#AllPersistenceIds
The returned event stream is unordered and you can expect different order for multiple
executions of the query.
The stream is not completed when it reaches the end of the currently used `persistenceIds`,
but it continues to push new `persistenceIds` when new persistent actors are created.
Corresponding query that is completed when it reaches the end of the
currently used `persistenceIds` is provided by ``currentPersistenceIds``.
The LevelDB write journal is notifying the query side as soon as new ``persistenceIds`` are
created and there is no periodic polling or batching involved in this query.
The stream is completed with failure if there is a failure in executing the query in the
backend journal.
EventsByTag and CurrentEventsByTag
----------------------------------
``eventsByTag`` is used for retrieving events that were marked with a given tag, e.g.
all domain events of an Aggregate Root type.
.. includecode:: code/docs/persistence/query/LeveldbPersistenceQueryDocSpec.scala#EventsByTag
To tag events you create an :ref:`event-adapters-scala` that wraps the events in a ``akka.persistence.journal.Tagged``
with the given ``tags``.
.. includecode:: code/docs/persistence/query/LeveldbPersistenceQueryDocSpec.scala#tagger
You can retrieve a subset of all events by specifying ``offset``, or use ``0L`` to retrieve all
events with a given tag. The ``offset`` corresponds to an ordered sequence number for the specific tag.
Note that the corresponding offset of each event is provided in the ``EventEnvelope``, which makes it possible
to resume the stream at a later point from a given offset.
In addition to the ``offset`` the ``EventEnvelope`` also provides ``persistenceId`` and ``sequenceNr``
for each event. The ``sequenceNr`` is the sequence number for the persistent actor with the
``persistenceId`` that persisted the event. The ``persistenceId`` + ``sequenceNr`` is an unique
identifier for the event.
The returned event stream is ordered by the offset (tag sequence number), which corresponds
to the same order as the write journal stored the events. The same stream elements (in same order)
are returned for multiple executions of the query. Deleted events are not deleted from the
tagged event stream.
.. note::
Events deleted using ``deleteMessages(toSequenceNr)`` are not deleted from the "tagged stream".
The stream is not completed when it reaches the end of the currently stored events,
but it continues to push new events when new events are persisted.
Corresponding query that is completed when it reaches the end of the currently
stored events is provided by ``currentEventsByTag``.
The LevelDB write journal is notifying the query side as soon as tagged events are persisted, but for
efficiency reasons the query side retrieves the events in batches that sometimes can
be delayed up to the configured ``refresh-interval`` or given ``RefreshInterval``
hint.
The stream is completed with failure if there is a failure in executing the query in the
backend journal.
Configuration
=============
Configuration settings can be defined in the configuration section with the
absolute path corresponding to the identifier, which is ``"akka.persistence.query.journal.leveldb"``
for the default ``LeveldbReadJournal.Identifier``.
It can be configured with the following properties:
.. includecode:: ../../../akka-persistence-query/src/main/resources/reference.conf#query-leveldb
