Akka.Hosting 1.5.57-beta2

1.5.57-beta2 December 3rd 2025

New Features

• Add semantic logging support for Akka.NET 1.5.56+ - enables Microsoft.Extensions.Logging to receive properly structured state dictionaries instead of pre-formatted strings. When using Akka.NET 1.5.56+, log messages now include structured properties from the semantic logging API along with Akka metadata (ActorPath, Timestamp, Thread, LogSource). Fully backwards compatible with older Akka.NET versions.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.55 to 1.5.57-beta2

1.5.55.1 October 27th 2025

Enhancements

• Expose options in journal and snapshot builders - resolved issue #690 by adding Options property to AkkaPersistenceJournalBuilder and AkkaPersistenceSnapshotBuilder. Extension methods can now access configuration details without requiring options as explicit parameters, eliminating redundant option passing for connectivity health checks and other plugin-specific features

1.5.55 October 26th 2025

New Features

• Support custom health check registrations on Journal and Snapshot Builders - added API to support custom health check registrations for Akka.Persistence plugins, related to issue #678
• Add support for custom certificate validation callbacks - integrated the new CertificateValidationCallback feature from Akka.NET v1.5.55, allowing users to provide custom certificate validation logic for SSL/TLS connections. Enables advanced scenarios including certificate pinning, subject/issuer matching, custom business validation rules, and advanced mTLS scenarios

Enhancements

• Add customizable tags parameter to health check methods - resolved issue #679 by adding new overload allowing custom tags for health checks while maintaining backward compatibility
• Made it easier to customize failureState and tags for all health checks - simplified health check configuration API for all health checks

1.5.53 October 14th 2025

Bug Fixes

• Fix event adapter callback API not invoking adapters at runtime - resolved critical bug where event adapters configured via the callback API were not being invoked at runtime. This fix is especially important for users who have migrated to the callback pattern following the deprecation of JournalOptions.Adapters property. The issue was caused by unnecessary fallback configuration that interfered with adapter registration during HOCON merging.

Updates

• Add SSL/TLS configuration settings from Akka.NET 1.5.52 and 1.5.53 - updated SSL/TLS configuration options to support new features and settings introduced in Akka.NET versions 1.5.52 and 1.5.53
• Bump Akka version from 1.5.52 to 1.5.53

1.5.52 October 9th 2025

API Changes

• Deprecate JournalOptions.Adapters property in favor of callback API - resolved issue #665 by deprecating the JournalOptions.Adapters property. Users should migrate to the unified callback pattern: builder.WithJournal(options, journal => journal.AddWriteEventAdapter<T>(...)). The deprecated property will be removed in v1.6.0.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.51 to 1.5.52

1.5.51.1 October 2nd 2025
