Commonly Used Patterns With Akka
This package is used as a collection point for usage patterns which involve actors, futures, etc. but are loosely enough coupled to (multiple of) them to present them separately from the core implementation. Currently supported are:
- ask: create a temporary one-off actor for receiving a reply to a message and complete a scala.concurrent.Future with it; returns said Future.
- pipeTo: feed eventually computed value of a future to an org.apache.pekko.actor.ActorRef as a message.
- pipeToSelection: feed eventually computed value of a future to an org.apache.pekko.actor.ActorSelection as a message.
In Scala the recommended usage is to import the pattern from the package object:
import org.apache.pekko.pattern.ask ask(actor, message) // use it directly actor ask message // use it by implicit conversion
For Java the patterns are available as static methods of the org.apache.pekko.pattern.Patterns class:
import static org.apache.pekko.pattern.Patterns.ask; ask(actor, message);

Type Members
- class ConfigurationException extends PekkoException
This exception is thrown when Apache Pekko detects a problem with the provided configuration
- sealed abstract class Done extends Serializable
Typically used together with
Future
to signal completion but there is no actual value completed.Typically used together with
Future
to signal completion but there is no actual value completed. More clearly signals intent thanUnit
and is available both from Scala and Java (whichUnit
is not).- Annotations
- @DoNotInherit()
- sealed abstract class NotUsed extends AnyRef
This type is used in generic type signatures wherever the actual value is of no importance.
This type is used in generic type signatures wherever the actual value is of no importance. It is a combination of Scala’s
Unit
and Java’sVoid
, which both have different issues when used from the other language. An example use-case is the materialized value of a Pekko Stream for cases where no result shall be returned from materialization. - trait OnlyCauseStackTrace extends AnyRef
Mix in this trait to suppress the StackTrace for the instance of the exception but not the cause, scala.util.control.NoStackTrace suppresses all the StackTraces.
- class PekkoException extends RuntimeException with Serializable
Pekko base Exception.

Value Members

- object Main
Main class to start an pekko.actor.ActorSystem with one top level application supervisor actor.
Main class to start an pekko.actor.ActorSystem with one top level application supervisor actor. It will shutdown the actor system when the top level actor is terminated.

- Deprecated
(Since version Akka 2.6.0) Implement your own main class instead, from which you start the ActorSystem and actors.
