Hi Ramon,

in eventsourced, the application was responsible for delaying new messages to a processor until recovery completes (otherwise new messages could wrongy interleave with replayed messages). This is not necessary anymore with akka-persistence. New messages are internally buffered until recovery completes (see also migration guide <http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3.0/project/migration-guide-eventsourced-2.3.x.html>).

Akka-persistence doesn't notify applications with a separate message when recovery completed but you can easily achieve that by sending a processor a non-Persistent message immediately after creation. The processor will then receive this as first message immediately after recovery completed which is equivalent to a recovery-completed notification. You could even send that message from an overridden preStart or preRestart.

Cheers,
Martin

Hi All,

I am currently converting my framework over to akka-persistence from eventsourced.

I want to be notified when the recovery is complete, and do some work before accepting new messages.

How would I know that recovery is complete ?

Would I need to overide preRestart and somehow poll self for the existence of recoveryFinished ?

Specifically what I need to do is reset counter so that new keys, begin where they last left off. I have another method which I may use but was hoping for a hook I could reuse.

thanks
