RoundRobinPool

final case class RoundRobinPool(nrOfInstances: Int, resizer: Option[Resizer] = None, supervisorStrategy: SupervisorStrategy = Pool.defaultSupervisorStrategy, routerDispatcher: String = Dispatchers.DefaultDispatcherId, usePoolDispatcher: Boolean = false) extends Pool with PoolOverrideUnsetConfig[RoundRobinPool] with Product with Serializable

A router pool that uses round-robin to select a routee. For concurrent calls, round robin is just a best effort.

The configuration parameter trumps the constructor arguments. This means that if you provide nrOfInstances during instantiation they will be ignored if the router is defined in the configuration file for the actor being used.

Supervision Setup

Any routees that are created by a router will be created as the router's children. The router is therefore also the children's supervisor.

The supervision strategy of the router actor can be configured with #withSupervisorStrategy. If no strategy is provided, routers default to a strategy of “always escalate”. This means that errors are passed up to the router's supervisor for handling.

The router's supervisor will treat the error as an error with the router itself. Therefore a directive to stop or restart will cause the router itself to stop or restart. The router, in turn, will cause its children to stop and restart.

nrOfInstances

initial number of routees in the pool

resizer

optional resizer that dynamically adjust the pool size

supervisorStrategy

strategy for supervising the routees, see 'Supervision Setup'

routerDispatcher

dispatcher to use for the router head actor, which handles supervision, death watch and router management messages

    Pool with dynamically resizable number of routees return the akka.routing.Resizer to use. The resizer is invoked once when the router is created, before any messages can be sent to it. Resize is also triggered when messages are sent to the routees, and the resizer is invoked asynchronously, i.e. not necessarily before the message has been sent.
