This project is not maintained, a different one is though!

This project is not actively being worked on at present. Instead an actively maintained port of Akka to Scala.js is available here: https://github.com/unicredit/akka.js.

We highly recommend you have a look at it instead - it features a full Akka core as well as Streams port working in the browser.

Akka.js

This project provides an implementation of Akka's core akka-actor module for Scala.js. The project structure mirrors that of upstream Akka. The akka-actor-js project contains the core actor implementation. An important goal is to minimize source differences between upstream akka-actor and akka-actor-js. The akka-actor-tests-js project provides the test suite for akka-actor-js.

Status and plan

Akka.js Status

Building and running the test suite

The projects are built using sbt, using

> compile

The test suite is run using

> project akka-actor-tests-js
> run

Building the example Play app

Build the Scala.js client app (uses `akka-actor-js`)

> project playAppScalaJS
[info] Set current project to Scala.js play-app client ...
> fastOptJS
...
[info] Fast optimizing .../examples/play-app/public/javascripts/play-app-client-fastopt.js
[success] Total time: ...

Build the Play server-side app (uses `akka-websocket-bridge`)

Quit the sbt console (if it’s still running). Change directory to the root of the Play app (examples/play-app), and start a new sbt prompt. Build the Play app using:

[play-app] $ compile

Run the Play app using:

[play-app] $ run

The app is now running at http://localhost:9000/.
