Stomperl: Stomp with Erlang

December 7th, 2007

Stomperl is an attempt to build something not-so-that-non-trivial (in this case, a Stomp server) with Erlang. To kick it off, I stole the server architecture from here and here. Currently it doesn't even support the full protocol: only CONNECT, SUBSCRIBE and SEND commands are supported. But anyway, it's moving forward and I'm learning from it.

To make it run:

  1. make test, which hopefully succeeds.
  2. make start, then you'll get an Erlang console.
  3. In the Erlang console, tcp_server_sup:start_server().
  4. In another shell console, make acceptance, which hopefully succeeds.

I created an extremely simple acceptance test with Gozirra. 

What's the next? Well, I suppose I'll implement the full protocol, and fix some defects. As a newbie to Erlang, I made and am making stupid mistakes. Welcome to be stupid together with me.
