Further to this I created a sample at
https://github.com/haighis/java-jersey-akka-backend-actor. This is written
entirely in Java and is based on the sample at
https://github.com/pofallon/jersey2-akka-java.
This sample demonstrates:
- using actor selection - see
below.
Hi John,
// Here a reference to the backend actor is created
ActorRef backend = getContext().actorOf(FromConfig.getInstance().props(),
factorialBackendRouter);
No, in the above code the actual actor is created and you get back its
reference. It is different from looking up the
Hi John,
My question is this.
- In a front end actor is the sending of a message as simple as attaining
a reference (in frontend actor onreceive) to the backend actor via an
ActorRef and then sending a message to the backend actor?
Yes, once you have the ActorRef of an actor you can send
HI Endre,
Thanks again for the info.
Just to confirm this sample on akka activator appears to be a
frontend/backend sample that I have been looking for:
akka-sample-cluster-java
I have some feedback below.
//#frontend
public class FactorialFrontend extends UntypedActor {
final int
I was looking to know how to write an actor per request. I want to
understand this pattern so I could create a sample similar to the one at
https://github.com/muuki88/activator-play-cluster-sample that creates a
frontend for an akka cluster in Java.
I'm struggling with how to have a frontend

Hello John,
I don't think there is an equivalent repo to this out there...
Although I assume you've seem this post
http://techblog.net-a-porter.com/2013/12/ask-tell-and-per-request-actors/ where
this code sample originates from?
The concepts are pretty generic, and I would recommend checking out
