Signature

def extractExecutionContext: Directive1[ExecutionContextExecutor]

Description

Extracts the ExecutionContext from the RequestContextRequestContext.

See withExecutionContext to see how to customise the execution context provided for an inner route.

See extract to learn more about how extractions work.

Example

Scala

source`` def sample() = path("sample") { extractExecutionContext { implicit executor => complete { Future(s"Run on ${executor.##}!") // uses the executor ExecutionContext } } }

val route = pathPrefix("special") { sample() // default execution context will be used }

// tests: Get("/sample") ~> route ~> check { responseAs[String] shouldEqual s"Run on ${system.dispatcher.##}!" } ``

Java

source`` import static akka.http.javadsl.server.Directives.extractExecutionContext;

final Route route = path("sample", () -> extractExecutionContext(executor -> onSuccess( CompletableFuture.supplyAsync( // uses the executor ExecutionContext () -> "Run on " + executor.hashCode() + "!", executor ), str -> complete(str) ) ) );

// tests: testRoute(route).run(HttpRequest.GET("/sample")) .assertEntity("Run on " + system().dispatcher().hashCode() + "!"); ``
