Release Date: 2019-08-21 // over 4 years ago
  • ๐Ÿš€ The Play Team is pleased to announce the release of Lagom 1.6.0-M5. This is the fourth milestone release of Lagom 1.6.x series. Like all milestone releases, the primary goal is to get feedback, so please let us know if something isn't working or you see something that should be improved. If you are the author of a Lagom module, we would recommend checking out this release to see how it will affect your module.

    ๐Ÿš€ There are many improvements and changes at this new release, and you can see them all in Github milestone.

    ๐Ÿ”„ Changelog

    Some of the most relevant changes are:

    1. Akka 2.6.0-M5: as you can see in our roadmap, support Akka 2.6 is a priority, so we are closely tracking Akka 2.6 milestone releases to discover possible integrations problems sooner than later.
    2. Play 2.8.0-M4: we did a milestone release for Play a few days ago, and this Lagom milestone is already using that too.
    3. Pause and resume projections : we are introducing basic support to pause and resume read sides and topic producers by tagName. This is not complete yet, but you can test and see how it will work for your application. โšก๏ธ 4. Dependencies updates : thanks to scala-steward, all dependencies were updated to the newest versions. The most relevant updates were jackson-databind to 2.9.9.3, Alpakka Kafka Connector 1.0.5, and Akka HTTP 10.1.9.
