Re: [akka-user] Parallel File Processing with Akka Actors?

2015-05-08 Thread Akka Team
Hi Harit,

You should try akka streams:
http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka-stream-and-http-experimental/1.0-RC2/

It has all you need.

There are also activator tutorials:

 Hello

 This is what my use case looks like

 *Use Case*

 - Given many log files in range (2MB - 2GB), I need to parse each of these
 logs and apply some processing, generate Java POJO.
 - For this problem, lets assume that we have just 1 log file
 - Also, the idea is to making best use of System. Multiple cores are
 available.

 *Alternative 1*
 - Open file (synchronous), read each line, generate POJOs

 FileActor - read each line - ListPOJO

 *Pros*: simple to understand
 *Cons*: Serial Process, not taking advantage of multiple cores in the
 system

 *Alternative 2*
 - Open File (synchronous), read N lines (N is configurable), pass on to
 different actors to process

 / LogLineProcessActor 
 1FileActor - LogLineProcessRouter (with 10 Actors) -- LogLineProcessActor 2
 \ LogLineProcessActor 10

 *Pros* Some parallelization, by using different actors to process part of
 lines. Actors will make use of available cores in the system (? how, may
 be?)
 *Cons* Still Serial, because file read in serial fashion

 *Questions*
 - is any of the above choice a good choice?
 - Are there better alternatives?

 Please provide valuable thoughts here

 Thanks a lot

Re: [akka-user] Akka with org.apache.log4j.MDC

2015-05-08 Thread nilsga
I have struggled a lot with the same challenge. The MDC feature of the 
logging frameworks need a little more manual intervention when operating 
in an asynchronous runtime like Akka. MDC is tightly coupled to a thread, 
but communication with and between Actors happen in different threads. 
Hence, the MDC is not propagated automatically when sending messages 
between your actors. Basically, you need to pass the context you wish to 
log along with the messages in your system. So if you want to trace a 
requestId in a conversation between your actors, you need to pass the 
requestId along in the message, and then put it back in the MDC in the 
receiving actor.

Nils-Helge Garli Hegvik

 Hi √,

 I want to have MDC logging so I can organize my logs, for example 
 according to requestId. 

 I am tried out the example in 
 http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3.10/scala/logging.html#MDC_values_defined_by_the_application
 .

 It works fine for a single actor, but If I'm sending a message to another 
 Actor, the MDC values are not log on the other Actors.

 class RequestHandler() extends Actor with 
 akka.actor.DiagnosticActorLogging{

override def mdc(currentMessage: Any): MDC = {
  currentMessage match {
case req: TypeA = Map(requestId - req.id)
case _ = Map()
  }
}

def receive: Receive = {
   case req: TypeA =
  log.debug(RECEIVE req typeA) //logged with 
 correct [requestId - someRandom]
  val actorA = context.ActorOf(ActorA.props)
  actorA ! req   //logs in actorA 
 are do not have value on requestId (how to log them?)
}
 }

 class ActorA() extends Actor with akka.actor.DiagnosticActorLogging {...} 
 //logs of helperActors called by ActorA are not also logged with correct 
 requestId (how to log them?)

 Is it possible with AKKA MDC to log all codeLogs (including logs from 
 dependency libs) for a certain requestId with correct MDC map values?


I also set akka logger to sl4fj on my application.conf

 akka {
   loggers = [akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jLogger]
  logging-filter = akka.event.slf4j.Slf4jLoggingFilter

 I am trying to build and run an akka stream flow (in Java DSL) with 2

 builder, and then the .run() or runWith() method would return the ActorRef
 object. But what to do in case of many source actors? Is it even possible
 to materialize such a flow?


You should pass src1, src2 as parameters to the .closed() method, and also
define a function how to combine the materialized value of src1, src2 and
sink. I.e. instead of just passing sink, you pass the sources, too. This
way you can include all materialized values in a final value.

2015-05-08 Thread Nic Wichmann
Hello,

You could have a look at the akka-http websocket example by Johannes 
Rudolph: https://github.com/jrudolph/akka-http-scala-js-websocket-chat

He doesn't combine two ActorRef sources, but he combines an ActorRef sink 
with an ActorRef source. The key is in the matValue function he uses in the 
chatFlow builder. As far as i can understand, this sends the materialized 
source ActorRef as a value through the stream:

Re: [akka-user] Re: Akka Persistence on the Query Side: The Conclusion

2015-05-08 Thread Olger Warnier
Hi Alejandro,




You have a number of options




- when you have a single persistence Id, write a view for that

- when you want to aggregate events of several persistence ids, you can do so 
via the event store (approach of Martin (with Kafka) and Greg (event store) )

 Or you can aggregate the changes to a message queue and read that

 Or you can aggregate via another persistent actor that publishes the fact that 
something has changed for a specific other persistence id and start a view for 
that id (my approach)




And there may be other ways to solve this of course.




Kind regards,




Olger

 This is a top level one - but it is not the only top level actor in the

The only safe way to reuse a name is to watch the actor from the *parent*
actor, and once received a Terminated message, create an actor with the
same name.

Note, that you cannot do this with top level actors, since their parent is
unaccessible for users. This is simple to solve though, you just need to
introduce a new top level actor, and put your other actors under that one.
This is also a good practice, in general you should not have more than a
couple of top level actors, supervising the other actors in your system.

It seems like you stop your actor too early, therefore messages destined to

[akka-user] Play/Akka Web Socket application to serve three different areas of a web page

2015-05-08 Thread Nweike Onwuyali
I am building a Play/Akka Actors application . My Play application uses Web 
Socket to get messages for three
different areas in a single View page.

   - The first is getting mails
   - The second is getting newsfeed
   - The third is getting notification.
   

When the view page  loads, i am suppose to 
populate these  three areas with data from the server.

How do i build a Play/Akka application to serve this page with data for the 
three on two different scenarios
a) On load of the page
b) Whenever data is available from the server

 That is inside the context().become and should only fire after the reply

Ok, but accessing the sender() from the constructor, and then saving it is
wrong. Since the actor has not yet received any messages, it will return
the ActorRef of dead letters.

[akka-user] Remote singleton actor discovering process

2015-05-08 Thread Ugo Matrangolo
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

2015-05-08 Thread Patrik Nordwall
Hi Jacobus,

I like your analogy of putting a Ferrari on the back of a truck. However,
you can unload the Ferrari when you have reached the racing track. If you
can't convince them that it is easier and better to run Akka outside the
JEE container you can use the JEE Container for deployment, only.

One way is to use a ServletContextListener that creates the Akka
ActorSystem (and Akka Http server endpoint) when loaded and stops it on
unload.

[akka-user] Re: Multiple recoveries on PersistentActor

2015-05-08 Thread Sylvain Frey
After digging into akka.persistence.Eventsourced: *the implementation 
allows only one recovery, when the actor is started and before any commands 
are processed.* There does not seem to be a way to return to an awaiting 
recovery state without fiddling with the private behaviour of a 
PersistentActor.

Perhaps this feature should be documented?


Sylvain

On Thursday, May 7, 2015 at 7:03:28 PM UTC+1, Sylvain Frey wrote:

 Am I right supposing that a PersistentActor supports only a single 
 recovery?

 For instance, with a PersistentActor that has already persisted a number 
 of events commands, when doing:

 persistentActor ! Recover(toSequenceNr = 2L)
 persistentActor ! Recover(toSequenceNr = 1L)

 only the first recovery ever happens - and only in case it manages to get 
 in *before* the initial automatic recovery for PersistentActors, 
 otherwise it is also discarded.

 In case this is unclear, I have a minimal test case at hand.

 The bigger picture: my goal was to implement a time travelling feature 
 where actors would be sent back in time at runtime, to arbitrary past 
 states (rewinding a simulation for instance).

 Thanks!


 Sylvain

[akka-user] Making a source from an ActorPublisher

Hi,

In the last milestone release that I was using, I used
Source[T](Props[MyTPublisherActor]) to convert a PublisherActor into a

something I should have imported to implicitly add this apply method back
in? The associated tutorial doesn't mention any imports.

Re: [akka-user] Re: Help desparately needed in motivating containerless deployment in mature enterprise

2015-05-08 Thread Giovanni Alberto Caporaletti
It really depends on the market you're in. Some markets (first I can think 
of are betting/gambling/banking) are very much against change. If you work 
in that sector you have two choices: 1) you resign and you go work with 
your friends in a startup working 24/7 but with the freedom to choose the 
tools you like (my choice) or 2) you fight to start adopting the technology 
and process you like in some non-core-business minor project. You have to 
prove on the field why your choice is better, and you can use the 
opportunity to learn at the same time. The more experienced you are, the 
more you know that you only know pros and cons of technologies after having 
used them in real -albeit small- production environments.

I think the same applies to big companies (in general) that have old 
school operations departments. They cannot fire the websphere certified 
experts out of the blue.

If you work in a more open minded company, you could do a POC yourself. I 
setup a cluster with ansible, docker, consul, a 3-node elasticsearch 
cluster,  akka/scala standalone apps and redis (all of them containerised) 
in a couple of days. If you show that you can type vagrant up and 
seamlessly create and provision N VMs with your clustered app and maybe 
show how easy it is to upgrade the cluster by simply typing sbt 
docker:publish and ansible-playbook  playbook.yml they could be 
impressed. 

It doesn't take more than a couple of hours a day for 1 or 2 weeks 
(depending on your experience) to build something like that to show off. 
The management is always more impressed by devops than code stuff, imho. 


*Build something, show 'em!*

 Anything that can help will be greatly appreciated. I need some solid

 Thanks in advance.

Hi Olger

Could you please elaborate a bit on your appoach? I'm not sure I follow.

Thanks.

 Hi Alejandro,

 You have a number of options

 - when you have a single persistence Id, write a view for that
 - when you want to aggregate events of several persistence ids, you can do
 so via the event store (approach of Martin (with Kafka) and Greg (event
 store) )
  Or you can aggregate the changes to a message queue and read that
  Or you can aggregate via another persistent actor that publishes the fact
 that something has changed for a specific other persistence id and start a
 view for that id (my approach)

 And there may be other ways to solve this of course.

 Kind regards,

 Olger

Re: [akka-user] Connecting junctions to a graph with akka-streams 1.0-RC2

2015-05-08 Thread Jeroen Rosenberg
Thanks for the swift reply. So creating junctions will actually create 
Graphs which you explicitly need to connect. This must have been changed 
then, because I remember in earlier versions you didn't need to make any 
explicit calls to the builder and you could just wire/connect them using 
the ~ operator from FlowGraphImplicits. Why can't this make the connection 
implicitly?

 Yes.

 Because otherwise they are not made part of the graph. The builder somehow

 balancer1 = b.add(balancer) // embeds a copy of balancer into the graph

 balancer2 = b.add(balancer) // embeds another copy of balancer into the

No, that was never true. You always had to assign them to variables first
in order to use the ~ operator, since you cannot ever connect up a proper
junction (more than 2 ports) in just one line. The difference was only that
the apply() methods of Balance/Merge, etc, took an implicit builder all the
time, and automatically added the junctions to the graph. You could not use
these junctions outside of a builder block ever.


 Why can't this make the connection implicitly?


Because you can now use graphs in much more rich ways than before. For
example you can add junctions statically (or any other graph) as
parameters to the closed() method and therefore use their materialized
values. No builder needed at that point.

Also forcing the apply() functions to take an implicit builder would mean
that you cannot construct these graphs outside a builder block, which would
exclude many valid (and useful) use cases. For example now you can create a
function that accepts a certain shaped graph, for example with 1 input and
2 output ports. Now you can pass to that function any graph, including a
custom, composite one, or a simple atomic one, like Balance.

We *do* implicit additions for Flows and Sources in builder blocks though,
but the only reason why that is possible is because they can be wired up in
one line:

x ~ myFlow ~ y

But a junction is never fully connectable on one line, so you need to store
it into a variable. So now you can

 - create and accept free-floating independent graphs
 - you can embed them into another graph (arbitrarily many times) using
b.add
 - connect the instances as you see fit (each embedding is a new instance)

In fact, you can write the flow example like this:
f = b.add(flow)
x ~ f.inlet
f.outlet ~ y
// or x ~ f ~ y

Re: [akka-user] Parallel File Processing with Akka Actors?

2015-05-08 Thread Harit Himanshu
Hi Idar

I just confirmed with some of our team mates that it depends upon our 
customers.


   1. Some customers use local disk and remove logs after processing. There 
   are customers who use NAS based storage. None uses SSD as per my 
   understanding.
   2. The logs differ in size a lot. Depends on log rolling rules, this may 
   range from some Megabytes to few Gigabytes.
   3. The processing is not much. we decide either to ignore the 
   logLine(based on certain condition), encrypt certain data, and build a 
   format(usually JSON).

Do you have better idea or would your recommendation differ based on this 
information?

Thank you
+ Harit Himanshu

 What filesystem and disks are you reading the files from? Reading a file 
 in one actor is a good idea, because you can read it sequentially. Reading 
 from 10 different places in the same file can be a lot slower or faster. 
 MPIIO which are used in computational clusters have methods for splitting a 
 file and reading one part each on different nodes.

 How much processing is there for each line?

 I would implement both alternatives and do some benchmarking. Maby a third 
 would be to read the files in each LogLineProcessActor and ditch the 
 FileActor.

 What would also be cool, is to have an async IO for reading the files. I 
 have no experience with that.

 When I try to run this I'm getting:
 java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: The input port [
 UniformFanOut.in] is not part of the underlying graph.


Because you have not added them to the graph.


 When I explicitly call .add on the builder to add the junctions to the
 Graph it works (see code below):

 val source = Source(ActorPublisher[HttpData.NonEmpty](someProcessor))

 FlowGraph.closed() { implicit b =
   import FlowGraph.Implicits._

   val balancer = b.add(Balance[HttpData.NonEmpty](2))
   val merger = b.add(Merge[Try[Map[String,Any]]](2))

   source ~ balancer.in

balancer.out(0) ~ merger.in(0)
balancer.out(1) ~ merger.in(1)
   merger.out ~ Sink.ignore

 }.run()


 Is this really necessary?


Yes.


 If so, why?


Because otherwise they are not made part of the graph. The builder somehow
need to know that you want to add them.

For example:

balancer = Balance[HttpData.Nonval Empty](2) // creates a standalone graph
that is a balancer with two output ports. The builder have no clue about
this graph, this is a standalone thing.

balancer1 = b.add(balancer) // embeds a copy of balancer into the graph
being built
balancer2 = b.add(balancer) // embeds another copy of balancer into the
graph

// balancer1 is not the same instance as balancer2

[akka-user] Connecting junctions to a graph with akka-streams 1.0-RC2

2015-05-08 Thread Jeroen Rosenberg
I'm trying to consume a stream from a streaming API (based on akka-http and 
akka-streams 1.0-RC2). I'm currently using spray client, since I couldn't 
figure out how to do it with Akka Http client yet, but this is another 
topic (some pointers are appreciated, though). Anyway, I'm creating a 
FlowGraph to process the chunks of my stream. I'm using a few junctions, 
such as Balance and Merge. Here's a simplified version of the code.

val source = Source(ActorPublisher[HttpData.NonEmpty](someProcessor))

FlowGraph.closed() { implicit b =
  import FlowGraph.Implicits._

  val balancer = Balance[HttpData.NonEmpty](2).shape
  val merger = Merge[Try[Map[String,Any]]](2).shape

  source ~ balancer.in

   balancer.out(0) ~ merger.in(0)
   balancer.out(1) ~ merger.in(1)
  merger.out ~ Sink.ignore

}.run()


When I try to run this I'm getting:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: The input port [
UniformFanOut.in] is not part of the underlying graph.

When I explicitly call .add on the builder to add the junctions to the 
Graph it works (see code below):

val source = Source(ActorPublisher[HttpData.NonEmpty](someProcessor))

FlowGraph.closed() { implicit b =
  import FlowGraph.Implicits._

  val balancer = b.add(Balance[HttpData.NonEmpty](2))
  val merger = b.add(Merge[Try[Map[String,Any]]](2))

  source ~ balancer.in

   balancer.out(0) ~ merger.in(0)
   balancer.out(1) ~ merger.in(1)
  merger.out ~ Sink.ignore

}.run()

[akka-user] Re: Help desparately needed in motivating containerless deployment in mature enterprise

2015-05-08 Thread lutzh
Hi Jacobus,

If you can look behind the somewhat provocative title, I think Eberhard 
Wolff gives a pretty comprehensive overview of why you should look beyond 
app servers in Java Application Servers Are Dead:

http://jaxenter.com/java-application-servers-dead-1-111928.html
http://jaxenter.com/java-application-servers-dead-112186.html
http://www.infoq.com/interviews/eberhard-wolff-java-app-servers

A bit too focused on Docker for my taste, but also 
valid: 
https://medium.com/@jstrachan/the-decline-of-java-application-servers-when-using-docker-containers-edbe032e1f30

Hope this helps,
Lutz

 Hi there,

 I'm hoping that someone can help me with advice on motivating why 
 containerless services makes sense. I'm trying to motivate writing a new 
 business service on Akka-HTTP, but other architects stands rock solid on 
 the argument that only services that can be deployed inside Websphere 
 Application Server must be allowed. Now, I realise I can probably make 
 Akka-HTTP run inside a JEE container, but that will be like putting a 
 Ferrari on the back of a truck.

 Their primary concerns are mostly around deployment, configuration,  
 monitoring, etc. They also have a sense that things are just safer in 
 Websphere for some kind or reason. They still think in terms of queues and 
 transactions, etc.

 If anyone can give me some good business, operational or technical 
 motivators, then I will be very grateful. Also, if you are aware of any 
 stat's, benchmarks, etc. on this, then that will help too. Maybe groups 
 like Gartner have done a bit of a writeup industry moving away from 
 containers?

 Anything that can help will be greatly appreciated. I need some solid 
 facts and ideas to back my statements.

 Thanks in advance.

 Cheers,
 Jacobus

No that does not fix the issue.

The sender is a problem if it ever got that far, but the problem is it does 
even seem to reach this actor. If it did this line:

https://github.com/chanan/java-cqrs-starter/blob/master/app/actors/GameActor.java#L61

would have been output into the log which it is not.

Re: [akka-user] Parallel File Processing with Akka Actors?

2015-05-08 Thread Michael Frank
what is the result of the log processing of a single file?  is it some 
aggregation or summary, or are you performing some action for each log line?


it seems to me the most performant solution would be to not use actors 
at all, but to create a dedicated dispatcher and process each log file 
in a Future.  in this way you maximize your caching 
(data/instruction/readahead) and minimize your context switching. you 
also don't have to worry about the fact that you are using synchronous 
I/O.  if you are summarizing/aggregating the log file, then the result 
of the Future is your summary, and you can pipe that result to an actor 
using pipeTo().


this is optimizing for throughput however, not latency.  in order to 
balance throughput vs. latency, you might consider a bimodal approach, 
where files larger than a certain threshold get processed using a 
synchronous approach with Futures, and small files are processed in an 
actor.  you could abstract the processing into a trait and share that 
trait between both approaches.


that's just my 2 cents, however, without the benefit of much context.

Hi Idar

I just confirmed with some of our team mates that it depends upon our 
customers.


 1. Some customers use local disk and remove logs after processing.
There are customers who use NAS based storage. None uses SSD as
per my understanding.
 2. The logs differ in size a lot. Depends on log rolling rules, this
may range from some Megabytes to few Gigabytes.
 3. The processing is not much. we decide either to ignore the
logLine(based on certain condition), encrypt certain data, and
build a format(usually JSON).

Do you have better idea or would your recommendation differ based on 
this information?

What filesystem and disks are you reading the files from? Reading
a file in one actor is a good idea, because you can read it
sequentially. Reading from 10 different places in the same file
can be a lot slower or faster. MPIIO which are used in
computational clusters have methods for splitting a file and
reading one part each on different nodes.

How much processing is there for each line?

I would implement both alternatives and do some benchmarking. Maby
a third would be to read the files in each LogLineProcessActor and
ditch the FileActor.

What would also be cool, is to have an async IO for reading the
files. I have no experience with that.

Hello

This is what my use case looks like

*Use Case*

- Given many log files in range (2MB - 2GB), I need to parse
each of these logs and apply some processing, generate Java
|POJO|.
- For this problem, lets assume that we have just |1| log file
- Also, the idea is to making best use of System. Multiple
cores are available.

*Alternative 1*
- Open file (synchronous), read each line, generate |POJO|s

|FileActor  -  read each line-  ListPOJO   |

*/Pros/*: simple to understand
*/Cons/*: Serial Process, not taking advantage of multiple
cores in the system

*Alternative 2*
- Open File (synchronous), read |N| lines (|N| is
configurable), pass on to different actors to process

| /  
LogLineProcessActor  1
FileActor  -  LogLineProcessRouter  (with10  Actors)  --  
LogLineProcessActor  2
 
\LogLineProcessActor  10|

*/Pros/* Some parallelization, by using different actors to
process part of lines. Actors will make use of available cores
in the system (? how, may be?)
*/Cons/* Still Serial, because file read in serial fashion

*Questions*
- is any of the above choice a good choice?
- Are there better alternatives?

Please provide valuable thoughts here

Thanks a lot

Re: [akka-user] using Akka with Kamon...

2015-05-08 Thread TS
OK. 
Good news: Using 2.3.10, no errors.
However, I am using kamon log reporter. I do not see any actor metrics on 
my logs. Should I enable something on application.conf?

 Oh, that can be a problem! We have not tested Kamon with 2.4 yet and 
 probably the issue you are facing is due to Kamon's bytecode being liked to 
 certain Akka internals that changed between 2.3 and 2.4. Is it possible for 
 you to use Akka 2.3? I will let you know when we get ready to support Akka 
 2.4, regards!

 Hello TS!

 I just replied to you other email, please disregard that thread and 
 post your answer here.. what Kamon version are you using?
