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

• 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
• Important: Reactive Flows uses the Cassandra plugin for Akka Persistence; make sure Cassandra is started and available under the configured contact point

First start Cassandra and etcd:

docker-compose rm -f -s -v
docker-compose up -d etcd cassandra

Then start a first instance in sbt:

reStart --- -Dcassandra-journal.contact-points.0=127.0.0.1:9042 -Dconstructr.coordination.host=127.0.0.1 -Dakka.remote.netty.tcp.hostname=127.0.0.1 -Dakka.remote.netty.tcp.port=2550

To start another instance in sbt, provide additional configuration settings:

reStart --- -Dcassandra-journal.contact-points.0=127.0.0.1:9042 -Dconstructr.coordination.host=127.0.0.1 -Dakka.remote.netty.tcp.hostname=127.0.0.1 -Dakka.remote.netty.tcp.port=2551 -Dreactive-flows.api.port=8001
