The Cowboy Application
Small, fast, modular HTTP server.
Dependencies
The cowboy application uses the Erlang applications ranch
for listening and accepting TCP connections, crypto for
establishing Websocket connections, and cowlib for parsing and
building messages for Web protocols. These dependencies must
be loaded for the cowboy application to work. In an embedded
environment this means that they need to be started with the
application:start/{1,2} function before the cowboy
application is started.
The cowboy application also uses the Erlang applications
asn1, public_key and ssl when listening for HTTPS connections.
These are started automatically if they weren't before.
Environment
The cowboy application does not define any application
environment configuration parameters.
