Cosmo New

If you want to create your own actor implementations, the new command will help you to create a new actor from a template. This may be a completely new business logic or your own implementation of the offered actors. Here are the templates currently offered:

hello: a hello-world actor (in Rust) that responds over an HTTP connection

echo-tinygo: a hello-world actor (in TinyGo) that responds over an HTTP connection

echo-messaging: a hello-world actor (in Rust) that echoes a request back over a NATS connection

kvcounter: an example actor (in Rust) that increments a counter in a key-value store

Usage
