Release 7.0.0 #1175

sntiwari1 · 2025-10-13T06:38:06Z

This PR upgrades the sunbird-utils repository from Akka 2.5.19 + Scala 2.11 to Apache Pekko 1.0.3 + Scala 2.13.12.

The upgrade ensures license compliance, security, and modernization while maintaining API compatibility and project functionality.

Context:

License Compliance: Akka switched to Business Source License 1.1; Pekko remains Apache 2.0
Security: Akka 2.5.19 no longer receives security updates
Modernization: Access to latest features, Scala 2.13 improvements, and performance optimizations

Dependencies:

Apache Pekko 1.0.3
Scala 2.13.12
Jackson Module Scala 2.14.3

Type of change

Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
New feature / Upgrade (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
This change requires a documentation update

How Has This Been Tested?

Built all modules: mvn clean install -DskipTests
Built all modules with tests: mvn clean install
Verified dependency tree to ensure no Akka or Scala 2.11 artifacts remain: mvn dependency:tree
Verified Pekko dependencies present: mvn dependency:tree | grep pekko

Key Changes / Files Modified

Maven POMs

Updated all POM files with Pekko, Scala 2.13, and Jackson module versions
Added exclusions to prevent Scala 2.11 transitive dependencies
Updated POM files:
- sunbird-platform-core/actor-core/pom.xml
- sunbird-platform-core/actor-util/pom.xml
- sunbird-platform-core/common-util/pom.xml
- sunbird-es-utils/pom.xml

Source Code

Updated Akka imports to Pekko equivalents (akka.* → org.apache.pekko.*)
Files affected: actors, utilities, and tests
Updated FutureConverters for Scala 2.13 where applicable

Configuration

Updated application.conf references:
- akka.actor.provider → pekko.actor.provider
- akka.remote.RemoteActorRefProvider → org.apache.pekko.remote.RemoteActorRefProvider

Migration Impact

Business Logic: No changes; functionality preserved
API Compatibility: Maintained (Pekko API-compatible with Akka)
Code Changes: Primarily package name updates (akka → pekko)
License: Fully compliant with Apache 2.0

Description by Korbit AI

What change is being made?

Upgrade the project to Pekko 1.0.3 by migrating all Akka dependencies and imports to Pekko, updating Scala to 2.13, and adjusting configuration and build artifacts accordingly, across all modules.

    return ConfigFactory.parseString(StringUtils.join(details, ","));


The HOCON configuration format requires newlines or proper delimiters between properties, not commas. Using commas as delimiters will cause parsing errors. Change StringUtils.join(details, \",\") to StringUtils.join(details, \"\\n\") to properly format the configuration string.

Suggested change

return ConfigFactory.parseString(StringUtils.join(details, ","));

return ConfigFactory.parseString(StringUtils.join(details, "\n"));
