Generating source code for actors in C#.

 

This is how you can use ActorSrcGen .

The code that you start with is


<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
    <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
    <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="ActorSrcGen" Version="1.1.2" />
    <PackageReference Include="ActorSrcGen.Abstractions" Version="1.1.2" />
    <PackageReference Include="Gridsum.DataflowEx" Version="2.0.0" />
  </ItemGroup>
	<PropertyGroup>
		<EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles>true</EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles>
		<CompilerGeneratedFilesOutputPath>$(BaseIntermediateOutputPath)\GX</CompilerGeneratedFilesOutputPath>
	</PropertyGroup>
</Project>


The code that you will use is


// See https://aka.ms/new-console-template for more information
using ActorDemo;
using Gridsum.DataflowEx;

Person person = new Person { Name = "Andrei Ignat" };

DayWorkflow dayAndreiIgnat = new ();
var input = dayAndreiIgnat.InputBlock;
//async
await dayAndreiIgnat.SendAsync(person);
//sync
while (dayAndreiIgnat.Call(person))
{
    await Task.Delay(100);
}

Console.WriteLine("Done");
Console.ReadLine();


using ActorSrcGen;
using System.Diagnostics.Metrics;

namespace ActorDemo;
[Actor]
partial class DayWorkflow
{
    [FirstStep("StartDay")]
    //[Receiver]
    [NextStep(nameof(WashFace))]
    [NextStep(nameof(LogMessage))]
    public async Task<Person> StartDay(Person p)
    {
        await Task.Delay(1000 );
        return p;
    }

    

    [Step]
    [NextStep(nameof(LogMessage))]
    [NextStep(nameof(Eat))]
    public async Task<Person> WashFace(Person p)
    {
        await Task.Delay(1000);
        return p;
    }
    


    [Step]
    [NextStep(nameof(LogMessage))]
    [NextStep(nameof(Sleep))]
    public async Task<Person> Eat(Person p)
    {
        await Task.Delay(1000);
        return p;
    }
    

    [NextStep(nameof(LogMessage))]
    public async Task<int> Sleep(Person p)
    {
        await Task.Delay(1000);
        return p.Name.Length;
    }

    [LastStep]
    public void LogMessage(Person x)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Incoming Message: " + x?.Name);
    }


}

    public string Name { get; set; }
