Dear hakkers, we have recently changed our work process to be more sprint-like, where the goal is to wrap up development in a new milestone release every few weeks. The current sprint was dedicated to Streams and HTTP and it is now time for a new milestone of the Akka Streams and Akka HTTP projects, so we pushed the current status of the release-2.3-dev branch towards Maven Central as version 0.6. This is still an early development preview, and we will publish time-based updates over the coming weeks.
The main topic of this sprint was to consolidate our thoughts around how the DSL for streams should work and look like, which resulted in two summary tickets (for the DSL and supervision) and an exploratory pull request for the reworked DSL. We will finish this and connect it to the underlying implementation in the upcoming sprints, but if you have thoughts on the DSL structure itself then we’d love to hear them. You can check out all changes in this release by looking at the milestone, in broad strokes we have made several bug fixes and enhancements in the Stream and HTTP implementations, including updating their dependencies to Akka 2.3.5 in order to benefit from a bug fix in the TCP IO module. The most noticeable change within Streams land is that we made it possible to pick up FlowMaterializers implicitly, which required making them thread-safe by not relying on ActorRefFactory. Looking a bit ahead, we will significantly rework the Streams DSL in the near future, so it might make sense to wait until that work is released before upgrading larger code bases. Please give it a spin, you can find more information in the docs.
