Structs

ActorBuilder	Builder for Addr and Mailbox. This is a convenience API so you don’t have to call their constructors manually. Mainly lets you set the channel and name for your mailbox.
ActorInfo	Information about an actor, id, name and type_name. It implements Identify. Can also generate a span for tracing.
Addr	Reference implementation of thespis::Address<M>. It can be used to send all message types the actor implements thespis::Handler for. When all Addr to a mailbox are dropped, the mailbox will end.
Mailbox	The mailbox implementation.
WeakAddr	This is an address with similar functionality as Addr, but it does not keep the mailbox alive.

Enums

MailboxEnd	Type returned to you by the mailbox when it ends. Await the JoinHandle returned by the executor to retrieve this.
ThesErr	Errors that can happen in thespis_impl.

Constants

BOUNDED

Default buffer size for bounded channel between Addr and Mailbox.

Traits

CloneSink	Interface for T: Sink + Clone
SinkExt	An extension trait for Sinks that provides a variety of convenient combinator functions.

Type Definitions

BoxEnvelope	Shorthand for a Send boxed envelope.
ChanReceiver	Type of boxed channel receiver for Mailbox.
ChanSender	Type of boxed channel sender for Addr.
DynError	A boxed error type for the sink
ThesRes	Result which has a ThesErr as error type.
