I've more than one Future
.
val actor1 : Future[ActorRef] = createActorA()
val actor2 : Future[ActorRef] = createActorB()
...
...
...
Now I need to extract the ActorRef
s from all these futures so that I can use them to create a Router
.
val routees = Vector[ActorRef](actor1, actor2, .....)
val router = system.actorOf(Props.empty.withRouter(
RoundRobinRouter(routees = routees)))
I can call Await
on each of these Future
s to get the ActorRef
. Is there is a better way ?
Use Future.sequence
with foreach
:
Future.sequence(Vector(
createActorA(),
createActorB() // and so on
)) foreach { routees =>
val router = system.actorOf(Props.empty.withRouter(
RoundRobinRouter(routees = routees)))
// do something with router
}
Future.sequence
takes a collection of futures and returns a future holding a collection with the result of those futures, in this case it returns Future[Vector[ActorRef]]
. We then invoke foreach
on this future to attach a handler to the completion of this future. This gives us access to the collection (the routees
) and we create the needed router. We can continue to do further processing in the function passed to foreach.
You may use for-comprehension.
val actors: Future[(ActorRef, ActorRef)] = for {
a <- createActorA()
b <- createActorB()
} yield (a -> b)
// Await on actors
