Hi,
started to play with Akka remoting and I hit a problem with singleton
actors.
I have a 3 nodes Akka cluster with a singleton actor running somewhere
under the /user/root/singleton path.
I would like to send a message to this actor from any node in the cluster
triggered by someone hitting a Play Controller endpoint.
AFAIK, what I need to do is to get the ActorRef using:
actorSystem.actorSelection("akka.tcp://mySystem@node1:2551/user/root/singleton")
What I don't like is that I need to know *where* the singleton actor is
running (e.g. node1:2551).
Is there a way to broadcast a query like "Are you there?" to all nodes
having the singleton actor respond with an Identify ??
What I'm trying to achieve is something like:
actorSystem.actorSelection("akka.tcp://mySystem/user/root/singleton").mapTo[ActorRef]
! Hello
with Akka figuring out where the singleton is.
Not sure if is possible but worth asking :)
Best,
Ugo
