Deprecate akka-connector about monix-connect HOT 7 CLOSED

Yup, I still think docs are good enough 👍
They just need an update/be more visible

I'm planning an overhaul but with my pace it's going to be 2025 🙈

+1 for just create new ones for ZIO and FS2.

from monix-connect.

Yeah that sounds good

@Avasil guess ZIO conversion are better covered by monix-bio

What do you have in mind as this connector/module?

A while ago I wrote https://monix.io/docs/3x/reactive/observable.html#interoperability-with-other-streams-api-akka-streams-fs2 (ZIO Streams didn't exist at the time)

I feel like a doc could be good enough unless you want to wrap API

from monix-connect.

@Avasil I guess yeah its a wrapper but still can reduce some boilerplate code and make it more idiomatic, since monix provide generic reactive streams interoperability but not specific to the library.

For example the Monix documentation only shows how to convert an akka Source to Observable, but the monix-akka conector makes it easier for the user to perform such conversion and also provides conversions from Sink to Consumer and viceversa just by typing .asSink, asSource or asConsumer, asObservable.

I was just contemplating to do something similar for Fs2 and Zio to provide something like observable.asZStream and consumer.asZSink.

from monix-connect.

I agree with @Avasil and think that the better thing is to just provide docs on how to convert to different Reactive streams implementations, Akka is in monix.io maybe it could include a complete with also FS2, ZIO, Reactor... Although the concept is much of the same. This will also avoid cross dependency management on the user side.
So, will be deprecating the akka-connector in the next releases if no one opposes :)
