Leptus https://travis-ci.org/s1n4/leptus.png?branch=master

Leptus is an Erlang REST framework that runs on top of cowboy.

Leptus aims at simply creating RESTful APIs.

Requirements

Installation

Clone it and just run make

OR

If you want to use it as a dependency in your project add the following to your rebar configuration

{deps, [
        ...
        {leptus, ".*", {git, "git://github.com/s1n4/leptus.git", {branch, "master"}}}
       ]}.

NOTE: if you prefer jsx rather than jiffy the environment variable USE_JSX must be set to true when getting dependencies and/or compiling.

i.e.

USE_JSX=true make
# OR
USE_JSX=true rebar get-deps compile

Quick example

-module(hello).
-compile({parse_transform, leptus_pt}).

%% leptus callbacks
-export([init/3]).
-export([get/3]).
-export([terminate/4]).

init(_Route, _Req, State) ->
    {ok, State}.

get("/", _Req, State) ->
    {<<"Hello, leptus!">>, State};
get("/hi/:name", Req, State) ->
    Status = ok,
    Name = leptus_req:param(Req, name),
    Body = [{<<"say">>, <<"Hi">>}, {<<"to">>, Name}],
    {Status, {json, Body}, State}.

terminate(_Reason, _Route, _Req, _State) ->
    ok.
$ erl -pa ebin deps/*/ebin
1> c(hello).
2> leptus:start_listener(http, [{'_', [{hello, undefined_state}]}]).
