Reactive web app with Akka and AngularJS

Primary LanguageScala

Reactive Flows

Reactive Flows is a demo project showing a Reactive web app built with:

  • Akka Actors
  • Akka HTTP
  • Akka SSE (server-sent events)
  • Akka Distributed Data
  • Akka Cluster Sharding
  • Akka Persistence
  • AngularJS
  • Cassandra
  • Scala
  • etcd

Usage

  • Important: Reactive Flows makes use of server-sent events and advanced JavaScript which aren't available for all browsers, so make sure to use Firefox > 25.0, Safari > 7.1 or Chrome > 45.0
  • To run a single node, simply execute reStart in an sbt session; you can shutdown the app with reStop
  • To run multiple nodes, build a Docker image with docker:publishLocal and execute the script bin/run-reactive-flows.sh without an argument or a number from [0, 10)
  • As the names and labels of the flows aren't persisted, you have to create them after the app has started; see below examples
  • Important: Reactive Flows uses ConstructR for initializing the cluster; make sure etcd is started and available, e.g. via bin/run-etcd.sh
  • Important: Reactive Flows uses the Cassandra plugin for Akka Persistence; make sure Cassandra is started and available under the configured contact point, e.g. via bin/run-cassandra.sh
