Servy is a humble HTTP Server written in Elixir for the Pragmatic Studio's Elixir & OTP course.

Servy features

• Heavy use of pattern matching
• File and Socket IO
• Handling state with GenServer
• Using Supervisor to immediately recover from failures 🙌
• Handling requests in concurrent processes

A good entry point of the project would be checking the Handler module, that acts as a router for the requests. The server replies with JSON objects or HTML, depending on the endpoint that's matched on the router. Some routes to try:

• /pledges
• /sensors
• /404s holds the routes requested by the user but weren't found
• and more..

Supervisor supervises:

• ServicesSupervisor
• KickStarter
  • supervises the non OTP process: HttpServer

ServicesSupervisor supervises:

• Sensor GenServer
• Pledge GenServer
• 404's Counter GenServer
