This is an example of running Cowboy with Elixir and Amnesia and EEx
You need Elixir installed (instructions here)
Then type the following command:
mix deps.get
The command above will fetch all dependencies and compile them.
You can then start the Erlang node with the following command:
iex -S mix
iex(1)> Amnesia.start
:ok
iex(2)>DBA.install
:ok
Then point your browser to localhost:8080.
$ curl -i http://localhost:8001/
