Bug#688723: ITP: erlang-cowboy -- small, fast and modular HTTP server written in Erlang



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Nobuhiro Iwamatsu <iwamatsu@debian.org>

* Package name    : erlang-cowboy
  Version         : 0.6.1
  Upstream Author : Loïc Hoguin <essen@ninenines.eu>
* URL             : https://github.com/extend/cowboy.git
* License         : ISC license
  Programming Lang: erlang
  Description     : small, fast and modular HTTP server written in Erlang
  
  Cowboy is also a socket acceptor pool, able to accept connections
  for any kind of TCP protocol.
  .
  Cowboy aims to provide the following advantages:
  .
    * 'Small' code base.
    * Damn 'fast'.
    * 'Modular': transport and protocol handlers are replaceable.
    * 'Binary HTTP' for greater speed and lower memory usage.
    * Easy to 'embed' inside another application.
    * Selectively 'dispatch' requests to handlers, allowing you to send some
      requests to your embedded code and others to a FastCGI application in
      PHP or Ruby.
    * No parameterized module. No process dictionary. 'Clean' Erlang code.
