A total of 96 issues were closed since 2.5.12. The complete list can be found on the 2.5.13 milestone on github.

API changes in Akka Typed

Some of the improvements to Akka Typed resulted in three small API changes since 2.5.12 and it should be a straight forward find-replace migration.

  1. initialState was renamed to emptyState in PersistentBehavior, #24917

  2. ActorMaterializer moved #24868

Scala:

import akka.stream.typed.ActorMaterializer -> akka.stream.typed.scaladsl.ActorMaterializer

Java:

import akka.stream.typed.ActorMaterializer -> akka.stream.typed.javadsl.ActorMaterializerFactory
  1. akka-testkit-typed renamed to akka-actor-testkit-typed #25084

Artifact:

akka-testkit-typed -> akka-actor-testkit-typed

Package:

akka.testkit.typed -> akka.actor.testkit.typed

Config:

akka.typed -> akka.actor.typed
akka.testkit.typed -> akka.actor.testkit.typed
