= cowlib(7)

== Name

cowlib - Support library for manipulating Web protocols

== Description

Cowlib provides libraries for parsing and building messages
for various Web protocols, including HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2  and
Websocket.

It is optimized for completeness rather than speed. No value
is ignored, they are all returned.

== Modules

* link:man:cow_cookie(3)[cow_cookie(3)] - Cookies

== Dependencies

* crypto - Crypto functions

All these applications must be started before the `cowlib`
application. To start Cowlib and all dependencies at once:

[source,erlang]
----
{ok, _} = application:ensure_all_started(cowlib).
----

== Environment

The `cowlib` application does not define any application
environment configuration parameters.
