# Mikka

Mikka is a thin Ruby wrapper around Akka. It makes Akka's Java API more pleasing to the Rubyist's eye.

## Work in progress

Mikka is a work in progress, but currently used in production. It currently mostly scratches my own itchs, but improvement suggestions and patches are welcome. 

Check out the `examples` directory for the basics. Start with the `hello_world.rb` example, it is extensively documented and goes through the basics.

If you make something that can serve as a useful illustration of some concept, please contribute by sending a patch.

## Requirements

Only tested in JRuby 1.6.3 and Ruby 1.9 mode (add `jruby --1.9` or set `JRUBY_OPTS='--1.9`).

The required Akka and Scala JARs are loaded from the [akka-actor-jars](https://rubygems.org/gems/akka-actor-jars) and [scala-library-jars](https://rubygems.org/gems/scala-library-jars) wrapper gems.

## Installation

    gem install mikka
