Hello everyone, We are happy to announce the next official release of the Erlang Web framework. The latest 1.4 version is full of new features and enhancements. Let me introduce at least some of them:
* integration with EWGI EWGI (pronounced you-ghee) is a specification designed to allow web applications written in Erlang to run on any supported server. It also makes developing web applications simpler and more flexible by providing a common mechanism for reusing components. It was inspired by Python's PEP 333 and provides similar functionality to other projects such as Ruby's Rack. For more information about EWGI, visit http://bit.ly/1kMSeT * new template language support: ErlyDTL ErlyDTL is an Erlang implementation of the Django Template Language. The new template language should become an interesting alternative to the existing XHTML and Xmerl based template engine. ErlyDTL project homepage: http://code.google.com/p/erlydtl/ * Erlang Web Test Suite application bundled EWTS (which stands for Erlang Web Test Suite) is a new and innovative approach to system testing. Combination of unit tests and Erlang powerful dbg tool provides developers easy to use and extend testing environment for their applications. For more details, visit: http://wiki.erlang-web.org/EWTS * multiple level request dictionary support Request dictionary can store nested data structures. Apart from the above, there are also some changes worth mentioning: * new wpart introduced: wpart:comment * embedding default values in wparts from templates (patch submitted by Elena Bobrova - thank you!) * top-down template inclusion feature * experimental ejabberd-flavoured e_hook introduced * upgraded to Yaws 1.85 We do encourage everyone to try Erlang Web 1.4 out, send us comments, contribute and enjoy the coding!
