Actor4j is an actor-oriented Java framework.

Actor4j - Core

For more information on Actor4j, see the following more complete documentation on actor4j.io.

Status of Development

Most of the Actor4j - Core library (v2.1.x) has no external dependencies (except runtime-extended) and is also compilable as a native image with GraalVM. The minimum requirement is currently Java 17. In the long term, the library is targeting Java 21 (September 2023). Within the branch java-8, you find an older Java 8 version. ActorMessage is encapsulated as a Java Record. The Actor4j - Core library is now separated into sdk and runtime to provide more runtimes in the future. A specification exists for the core part of Actor4j.

Installation

I am working on a new version, 2.x for Actor4j. In the future, the new version and other libraries will be available as a Maven dependency. The entire documentation is more related to the new version 2.1.x.

Currently, you can add the following Maven dependency to your pom.xml file (not recomended):

<dependency>
	<groupId>io.actor4j</groupId>
	<artifactId>actor4j-core</artifactId>
	<version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>

or a SNAPSHOT (v2.1.0) with JitPack.io
