Persistent actors require on extra update function on the actor. This function is used to update the internal state of the actor. For persistent actors it is better to use functions instead of objects.

function actor(){
    
    this.receive = function(msg){
        // receive messages 
    };
    
    this.update = function(msg){
        // handle messages to change internal state
    };
        
}

Local/Session Storage

This class can be used in the browser to persist events in the local or session storage. It has one construct parameter which can be 'local' or 'session'.

var provider = new actorPersist.PersistStorage("local");
actorSystem.setPersistenceProvider(provider);
