First off, I was wondering if it is a correct design decision to run a Netty websocket server inside an Akka actor. I want to be able to receive messages on the actor, and send them to the clients connected to the Netty WS server. Netty has its own thread pools and whatnot, so is it ok to spawn a Netty server inside an Akka actor, or is there a better way to approach this?
Second, my Akka application spawns several WebSocket clients to other services. When I get data from the service, I want to publish that data to various actors. The WebSocket client I use (async-http-client) uses a callback to respond to incoming messages. I'm doing something along these lines right now: http://paste.click/s/GImeFh Is this correct usage, or is there a better way to approach this as well? My real concern here is what I can/can't do in an actor, because I feel like these are some common things developers would use in their apps. If anybody can clear these issues, that would be great.
