Receptionist

Defined in: src/discovery/Receptionist.ts:83
Cluster-wide service registry. Each node hosts one Receptionist actor. Register/Deregister are authoritative locally; peers learn about registrations through periodic gossip carrying a delta of local keys.
When a peer node leaves, every key entry it contributed is removed and subscribers are notified with an updated Listing.
Subscriptions are bounded and watched. Both matter: Unsubscribe is
caller-cooperative, so a crashed or adversarial subscriber used to sit in
the set forever, and notifySubscribers walks that set on every
registration change — an unbounded set is a memory leak and an O(N)
cost on the hot path (#137).

string
Defined in: src/Actor.ts:192
Human-readable name for this actor in log lines and in the DevTools actor tree (#891). Defaults to the full path — which is already the log source, so an actor that doesn’t override this logs exactly as it did before.
override displayName(): string { return `User(${this.entityId})`; }Purely cosmetic. The path stays the identity everywhere that routes,
correlates or aggregates — metric labels, tracing attributes, dead
letters, ActorRef.toString(), every wire identifier — so a display
name is free to be ambiguous, unstable, or shared between actors.
Resolved on every record, not captured once. Two consequences:
keep it cheap and side-effect free, and expect it to be called before
preStart (hence the optional chain — the context is attached after
construction). In exchange a name may be derived from state, and it
updates when that state does. Throwing, or returning anything but a
non-empty string, falls back to the path and warns once: a naming
hook must not be able to take a log line down with it.
ActorOptions.withDisplayName(...) outranks this, for the same reason
withSupervisorStrategy(...) outranks supervisorStrategy
— the spawn site is the more specific statement. It has to: every
Behaviors actor is a TypedActor that inherits this default, so a
method that won would silently swallow the spawn-site value for exactly
the actors that have no subclass to override. For a name that only
becomes known at runtime, this.context.setDisplayName(...) outranks
both.

Defined in: src/discovery/Receptionist.ts:162
Terminated is matched first, ahead of the protocol arms, and that order
is load-bearing rather than stylistic: Subscribe and Unsubscribe are
structurally identical (key + replyTo), so once Terminated sits
behind them in the union ts-pattern can no longer tell which of the
three an instanceOf arm extracts, and it hands the handler the wrong
type. Taking the system message out of the union up front leaves the
remaining arms exactly the shape they had before death watch existed.

Defined in: src/discovery/Receptionist.ts:147
Called after the actor has been terminated. Children are already stopped.
Returns

Overrides
Section titled “Overrides”preRestart()
Section titled “preRestart()”preRestart(
_reason,_message?):void|Promise<void>
Defined in: src/Actor.ts:119
Called before a restart, on the instance about to be thrown away.
The default calls postStop() and nothing else.
Override to release what the instance holds outside itself — a file handle, an open socket, a broker connection — or to do something other than drop the message that failed.
Stopping this actor’s children is not done here: the framework tears
them down after this hook returns and waits for them before building the
replacement, because postRestart re-runs preStart and a named child
needs its name back. To keep the children instead, see
Actor.stopChildrenOnRestart.

boolean
Defined in: src/Actor.ts:149
Whether a restart tears this actor’s children down before rebuilding it.
Default: true.
A restart replaces the Actor instance while the cell — and therefore
the child map — survives. Keeping the children was the old behaviour and
it made an ordinary pattern impossible: postRestart re-runs preStart,
so an actor that spawns a named child there hit Child name … is not unique on its first restart and never recovered (#634).
Override to false when the children are expensive to rebuild, hold
state the parent cannot restore, or are supervised independently — a
connection pool, say. They then outlive the restart exactly as before,
and it is on you to make preStart idempotent — by adopting the survivor
from the cell, this.child = this.context.child('name').toNullable() ?? this.context.spawn(Child, 'name'), or with context.spawnAnonymous.
An instance field cannot do it: preStart runs on a fresh instance
after every restart, so this.child ??= … is always unset and re-spawns
into the name the surviving child still holds, which fails the spawn and
restarts the actor again.
This is a separate hook rather than a preRestart override because the
teardown has to be awaited: the new instance cannot be built until the
old children are actually gone, and preRestart has no way to tell the
cell that it started something worth waiting for.
