1.5.0-beta1 February 20th 2023

Version 1.5.0-beta1 contains breaking API changes and new API changes for Akka.NET.

Breaking Changes: Logging

In #6408 the entire ILoggingAdapter interface was rewritten in order to improve extensibility and performance (logging is now 30-40% faster in all cases and allocates ~50% fewer objects for large format strings).

All of the changes made here are source compatible, but not binary compatible - meaning that users and package authors will need to do the following:

  • Add using Akka.Event in all files that used the ILoggingAdapter and
  • Recompile.

NOTE: you can use a global using Akka.Event directive to do this solution / project-wide if your project supports C# 10 and / or .NET 6.

In addition to improving the performance of the ILoggingAdapter system, we've also made it more extensible - for instance, you can now globally configure the ILogMessageFormatter via the following HOCON:

akka { 
    loglevel=INFO,
    loggers=["Akka.Logger.Serilog.SerilogLogger, Akka.Logger.Serilog"]
    logger-formatter="Akka.Logger.Serilog.SerilogLogMessageFormatter, Akka.Logger.Serilog"
}

That will allow users to use the SerilogLogMessageFormatter globally throughout their applications - no more annoying calls like this inside individual actors that want to use semantic logging:

private readonly ILoggingAdapter _logger = Context.GetLogger<SerilogLoggingAdapter>();

Breaking Changes: Akka.Persistence.Sql.Common

This is a breaking change that should effect almost no users, but we deleted some old, bad ideas from the API surface and it might require all Akka.Persistence.Sql* plugins to be recompiled.

For what it's worth, Akka.Persistence.Sql.Common's performance has been improved significantly and we'll continue working on that with some additional API changes this week.
