Standard Dependency Injection for Actors

Describe the proposal

The ActorService should instantiate actors through the ASP.Net Core DI container and inject the ActorId through a property or method.

Yes I know that you can use actorRuntime.RegisterActor<DemoActor>( (type) => new ActorService(type, (actorService, actorId) => new DemoActor(actorService, actorId)));

But the problem IMHO is that at the place you register the actor there is AFAIK no easy way to access the ASP.Net Core DI container.

Maybe there is another way to make the actor instantiation play better with dependency injection. I’m open for discussion.

@amanbha Are there plans to provide this built-in so that I don’t have to use this?

I’d love to just inject an ILogger to use.

@tmatev please see for DI with actors https://github.com/dapr/dotnet-sdk/issues/171
