Class Awakeable<T>

  • @NotThreadSafe
public final class Awakeable<T>
extends Awaitable<T>
    An Awakeable is a special type of Awaitable which can be arbitrarily completed by another service, by addressing it with its id().

    It can be used to let a service wait on a specific condition/result, which is fulfilled by another service or by an external system at a later point in time.

    For example, you can send a Kafka record including the id(), and then let another service consume from Kafka the responses of given external system interaction by using RestateContext.awakeableHandle(String).
