The official starter repository for the Rock the JVM Akka Persistence with Scala course

Powered by Rock the JVM!

This repository contains the starter code for the Rock the JVM's Akka Persistence with Scala course on Udemy.

How to install

• either clone the repo or download as zip
• open with IntelliJ as an SBT project

No need to do anything else, as the IDE will take care to download and apply the appropriate library dependencies.

The complete code

The repository for the completed code is here. You can follow the instructions there - although the download/import steps are identical to this one. Additionally, the completed repo is enhanced with commit tags that allow you to go back to an earlier state of the repository, prior to each lecture.

Contents in this repo

• a filled-in build.sbt with the appropriate library dependencies
• a complete Scala IntelliJ project with a Playground app that you can compile to see that the libraries were downloaded
• a docker-compose.yml with already configured Docker containers for Postgres and Cassandra
• a simple docker-clean.sh script to remove your Docker containers if you want to start them fresh
• a /sql folder with a SQL script that will automatically be run in the Postgres container and create the correct tables for Akka (more on that in the PostgreSQL lecture)
• a helper script psql.sh to easily connect to Postgres once started
• a helper scripte cqlsh.sh to easily connect to Cassandra once started
