actix-signal

Manage the lifecycle of an actix actor with its address.

If you want to stop/terminate an actor, you call ActorContext::stop or ActorContext::terminate within its execution context.

However, sometimes you have access to its address only. This crate adds a bunch of methods to the address so that you may stop or terminate the actor outside its running context.

Minimum supported rust version: 1.50.0

Get Started

Add the following line to your Cargo.toml.

toml actix-signal = { version = "0.1", features = ["derive"] }

Example

```rust use actix::{Actor, Context}; use actix_signal::SignalHandler;

[derive(SignalHandler)]

struct MyActor;

impl Actor for MyActor { type Context = Context; }

let actor = MyActor; let addr = actor.start();

addr.stop(); // Stop the actor addr.terminate(); // Terminate the actor ```
