I'm crosspointing it here to get wider coverage. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22569664/correct-way-to-model-a-subscriber-as-an-akka-actor
I'm planning to reengineer an existing system to use Akka, Play and Websockets. My current system is based on Jetty and Websockets. I've a fast stream of messages that are published into a Redis channel. In my web app layer I subscribe to these messages using a Jedis subscriber and then push those messages to a Websocket which are then displayed on a browser. I want to make the shift two two primary reason - a) better and simpler fault tolerance due to use of Actors b) the ability to connect to multiple streams using different actors In my current design I've a supervisor that creates a new child actor for every new channel. The child actor then subscribes to a Redis channel. My question what's the best way to push the messages (received from the Redis channel) to a Play Websocket ? -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
