-# Class: PlayerActor\<TMachine\>
-
-Defined in: [packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts:202](https://gitlab.com/xmachin-es/xmachines-js/-/blob/v2.2.0/packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts#L202)
-
-The concrete XState actor. It implements the signal protocol of the Play Architecture
-
-The class extends [@xmachines/play-actor!AbstractActor](../../play-actor/classes/AbstractActor.md), and therefore the
-`Actor` class of XState. It gives you the XState v5 integration, and it keeps the
-compatibility with the ecosystem, such as the XState inspection and the devtools.
-The constructor of the base class receives the machine. Therefore a `PlayerActor`
-**is** the XState actor, and it is no wrapper around one: every member of the
-XState `Actor` class works on the state of this instance, and this class adds the
-reactive state on the TC39 Signals for the observation by the infrastructure.
-
-**Capabilities:** the class implements both the
-[@xmachines/play-actor!Routable](../../play-actor/interfaces/Routable.md) interface and the
-[@xmachines/play-actor!Viewable](../../play-actor/interfaces/Viewable.md) interface. It therefore supports the
-routing and the view rendering.
-
-**Architectural context:** the class implements **Actor Authority (INV-01)**,
-because the guards of the XState machine control every decision of the
-navigation. The infrastructure observes the signals of the actor (`state`,
-`currentRoute`, and `currentView`), but it changes no state directly: every
-change goes through the event handlers of the state machine.
-
-## Examples
-
-The creation of an actor, and its lifecycle
-
-```typescript
-import { setup } from "xstate";
-import { definePlayer } from "@xmachines/play-xstate";
-
-const machine = setup({}).createMachine({
-	initial: "idle",
-	states: {
-		idle: {
-			meta: {
-				route: "/",
-				// A view spec needs `root` and `elements`. Every other shape derives null.
-				view: {
-					root: "home",
-					elements: { home: { type: "HomePage", props: {}, children: [] } },
-				},
-			},
-		},
-	},
-});
-
-const createPlayer = definePlayer({ machine });
-const actor = createPlayer();
-actor.start();
-
-// Observe the signals
-console.log(actor.currentRoute.get()); // '/'
-console.log(actor.currentView.get()?.root); // 'home'
-```
-
-The signal lifecycle with a watcher
-
-```typescript
-import { Signal } from "@xmachines/play-signals";
-
-const watcher = new Signal.subtle.Watcher(() => {
-	queueMicrotask(() => {
-		const pending = watcher.getPending();
-		console.log("State changed:", actor.state.get());
-	});
-});
-
-watcher.watch(actor.state);
-actor.send({ type: "play.route", to: "#about" });
-// The watcher schedules its own notification in a microtask
-```
-
-## See
-
-- [Play RFC](../../../../rfc/play.md)
-- [definePlayer](../functions/definePlayer.md) for the creation through a factory
-- [@xmachines/play-actor!AbstractActor](../../play-actor/classes/AbstractActor.md) for the signal protocol
-- [@xmachines/play-actor!Routable](../../play-actor/interfaces/Routable.md) for the routing capability
-- [@xmachines/play-actor!Viewable](../../play-actor/interfaces/Viewable.md) for the view rendering capability
-
-## Remarks
-
-**The routing:** this actor supports the `route: {}` config pattern of XState and
-also a `play.route` event with parameters. The `deriveRoute()` function reads
-`meta.route`, which is the Stately pattern, for a URL template, and it substitutes
-each parameter.
-
-**The pattern of the view signal:** the `currentView` signal is a direct
-`Signal.State`, and not a `Signal.Computed`. The propagation to a watcher in
-PlayRenderer is therefore correct. The class derives each view at the entry of a
-state and keeps it, and it computes no view on a read.

It derives the current URL path from the `meta.route` template of the active machine state and from the context of the actor. It returns `null` when the current state has no `meta.route` field, and also when it cannot resolve the complete route template. A necessary `:param` that the context does not hold is caught inside the signal, and a `MissingRouteParamError` therefore never leaves `get()`: that condition is temporary during a transition, and the signal computes the value again on the next snapshot. **Example** `// It returns "/profile/alice" when context.params.userId === "alice", // and null while the param is still absent. const route = actor.currentRoute.get();`                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | -                                                                                                                                | -                                                                                                                                        | [packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts:304](https://gitlab.com/xmachin-es/xmachines-js/-/blob/v2.2.0/packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts#L304) |

The signal derives the spec from the `meta.view` metadata of the active state. It emits a **new object reference** on each real change of the view on the screen: the view of a different state, or a change of a param or of the context that changes the resolved spec. A re-entry with `reenter: true` and new params also changes the spec. A snapshot that changes no view on the screen, such as an assign of the context alone, keeps the previous reference. A provider below the signal therefore mounts the UI again not on every event. The `PlaySpec` of the emission carries the context of the machine in its composed `state` field, under the read-only `/context` subtree. A spec therefore reads the context, and also each URL param, through the ordinary state grammar (`{ $state: "/context/params/section" }`). The context-projection module of `@xmachines/play-actor` holds the complete contract. The signal returns `null` when the current state has no `meta.view` metadata. Two states can declare two separate `meta.view` literals with an identical structure. A transition between those two states then emits two different references, and a provider mounts the UI again.

The constructor fixes it, and it never changes, also when the code restores the actor from a snapshot. A router bridge compares it with the browser URL, and it therefore separates a deep link (a URL that is not the initial one → the router wins) from a restore (the initial URL, and the actor at a different route from the restore → the actor wins). `deriveInitialRoute` derives the value statically from the machine definition, with the pure `initialTransition` helper of XState: the chain of the initial states and their `meta.route` templates are fixed at the moment of the machine definition, and the substitution of a `:param` uses the real initial context of the machine for the `input` of this actor. The code makes no second actor, and a snapshot of a restore changes the value never: it is always the **default** initial route of the machine.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                | -                                                                                                                                | -                                                                                                                                        | [packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts:323](https://gitlab.com/xmachin-es/xmachines-js/-/blob/v2.2.0/packages/play-xstate/src/player-actor.ts#L323) |

-
-Tells you if the current state of the actor accepts the given event.
-
-The type is the event union of the machine. An unknown event type is therefore a
-compile error. The method evaluates the event against the snapshot signal.

-
-Starts the actor.
-
-The method fires `onStart` on each real start, which is every transition from
-"not running" to "running". A start after a stop is such a transition, and XState
-permits it: its own `start()` stops only while the actor RUNS already. A second
-call while the actor runs fires no hook. Therefore a defensive double mount runs
-the side effects of `onStart` one time for one real start.

-
-Stops the actor and cleans up.
-
-The method fires `onStop` only when the actor ran. This matches XState, where a
-stop of an actor that never started, or of an actor that stopped already, does
-nothing and tears nothing down. Therefore the paired cleanup runs never two
-times, and it runs never against a resource that `onStart` did not take. A stop
-does not close the actor for ever: a later `start()` is a new lifecycle, and it
-fires `onStart` again.
