Hi, TLDR: I'd like to use the materialized value of a stream to decide the HttpResponse code.
Presently, I use a ToEntityMarshaller which marshals to: HttpEntity.Chunked(_, Source[Chunk, Future[Boolean]]) The Materialized Future[Boolean] indicates whether the stream was completely empty which is knowable as soon as an instance of the Source is run. Since streams can be transformed multiple ways, and run multiple times, I'd prefer to have the state which indicates whether the stream is empty come from a materialized stream. So, what I'd like to know, is if it's possible to use the stream materialized value to inform the response headers / code in a ToResponseMarshallable. As far as I can tell, from reading the source code of akka-http, it doesn't seem possible (a layer later in the process materializes the Source[Chunk, Any] AFTER an HttpResponse (containing the code, headers, and entity) is fully generated. If this is possible, can someone point me to an example? By the way, the stream integration for Akka HTTP is really, really amazing! Great work on it, Akka devs! I'm planning to blog about this and do a little walk-through tutorial on how to content-negotiated streaming of either JSON or protocol buffers. Thanks!
