![]() It is completely removed for connection processes, because assuming Cowboy is written properly this should bring us nothing anymore in 2.0. It is reworked for request processes, there we want to always propagate the stacktrace (including for exits) because we will print a report to help with debugging and proc_lib doesn't propagate it for exits. At the same time the initial callback for connection and request processes has been changed to connection_process and request_process, which should help with identifying processes when inspecting. |

= Cowboy Cowboy is a small, fast and modern HTTP server for Erlang/OTP. == Goals Cowboy aims to provide a *complete* HTTP stack in a *small* code base. It is optimized for *low latency* and *low memory usage*, in part because it uses *binary strings*. Cowboy provides *routing* capabilities, selectively dispatching requests to handlers written in Erlang. Because it uses Ranch for managing connections, Cowboy can easily be *embedded* in any other application. Cowboy is *clean* and *well tested* Erlang code. == Online documentation * http://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.0/guide[User guide] * http://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.0/manual[Function reference] == Offline documentation * While still online, run `make docs` * User guide available in `doc/` in PDF and HTML formats * Function reference man pages available in `doc/man3/` and `doc/man7/` * Run `make install-docs` to install man pages on your system * Full documentation in Asciidoc available in `doc/src/` * Examples available in `examples/` == Getting help * Official IRC Channel: #ninenines on irc.freenode.net * https://github.com/ninenines/cowboy/issues[Issues tracker] * http://ninenines.eu/services[Commercial Support]
