Hi Konrad, Thanks very much for the details. I am happy to use the new tech and report anything that I find, of course...
The question on "Does it completely replace the initial actor conf example file" sounds a bit weird - it is the same file, artery simply has it's own configuration section: http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4/general/configuration.html#akka-remote As the documentation reads; "Each Akka module has a reference configuration file with the default values." So... What I have done is "literally" take the configuration examples as individual files and "included" them ALL within *application.conf* include "akka-actor.conf" include "akka-agent.conf" include "akka-camel.conf" include "akka-cluster.conf" include "akka-cluster-metrics.conf" include "akka-cluster-sharding.conf" include "akka-cluster-tools.conf" include "akka-distributed-data.conf" include "akka-http.conf" include "akka-multinode-testkit.conf" include "akka-persistence.conf" include "akka-remote.conf"include "akka-testkit.conf" where I have (hopefully I am using the right term) the different *namespaces* separated. in the artery flavoured akka.remote example config file is; akka { actor { serializers { ... so what i was asking was does that configuration belong in akka.actor.conf Should I be using those values to overwrite / replace the same "path" of configuration that is in the default akka.actor.conf file? I am just now thinking that I have been too literal.... but nonetheless Perhaps a paragraph of how to use the example conf files might clear up the confusion for those that don't have an intimate knowledge of akka as a starting point. As always, thanks for your time and advice! -Gavin On Friday, 6 January 2017 21:14:01 UTC+11, Konrad Malawski wrote: > > Hi Gavin, > the question boils down to when you expect to hit prod. > We're still working on improving stability and > production-hints-on-configuring/debugging Artery. > > In general since this sounds like a new project I would suggest you start > using Artery and provide us with feedback if something feels off. > Please note that changing the remoting subsystem is exactly _zero_ code > changes :-) If you want to step back and use the old TCP based one you can > with the flip of a switch (akka.remote.artery.enabled = off). > > I assume you've seen: > http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4/scala/remoting-artery.html > The question on "Does it completely replace the initial actor conf example > file" sounds a bit weird - it is the same file, artery simply has it's own > configuration section: > http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4/general/configuration.html#akka-remote > > Happy hakking! > > -- > Konrad `ktoso` Malawski > Akka <http://akka.io> @ Lightbend <http://lightbend.com> > > On 6 January 2017 at 10:42:47, Gavin Baumanis ([email protected] > <javascript:>) wrote: > > Hi Gang, > > I was getting started with a technology pilot and was planning on using > akka clustering. > I started by creating a separate conf file for akka module / section. > > Since it is relatively new in the development phase - we initially plan on > keeping everything updated as new versions of Scala / Akka and Play are > released...
