# Gleam Cowboy! 🤠

A Gleam HTTP service adapter for the [Cowboy][cowboy] web server.

You may want to consider using the [Mist][mist] web server instead as it has

better performance, features type safe websockets, and is written entirely in

Gleam. It is also supported by the [Wisp][wisp] web framework.

## Installation

```sh

gleam add gleam_cowboy

```

```gleam

import gleam/erlang/process

import gleam/http/cowboy

import gleam/http/response.{type Response}

import gleam/http/request.{type Request}

import gleam/bytes_builder.{type BytesBuilder}

// Define a HTTP service

//

pub fn my_service(request: Request(t)) -> Response(BytesBuilder) {

  let body = bytes_builder.from_string("Hello, world!")

  response.new(200)

  |> response.prepend_header("made-with", "Gleam")

  |> response.set_body(body)

}

// Start it on port 3000!

//

pub fn main() {

  cowboy.start(my_service, on_port: 3000)

  process.sleep_forever()

}

```

## Limitations

Cowboy does not support duplicate HTTP headers so any duplicates specified by

the Gleam HTTP service will not be sent to the client.
