<div class="paragraph"><p>Cowboy <code>2.0.0-pre.4</code> has been released!</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This is the new recommended version of Cowboy.
While I would not recommend putting it in production
just yet, I do recommend you start writing new
applications with this Cowboy version.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The most significant changes in the pre-release are:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
A new architecture: there now is one process per
connection and one process per request. This was
done because HTTP/2 allows running requests concurrently.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Stream handlers. Every request, response and data goes
through stream handlers. They are meant to replace hooks
and more. They will be documented in a future pre-release.
Check <code>cowboy_stream</code> and <code>cowboy_stream_h</code> if interested.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Numerous changes to the <code>cowboy_req</code> interface. This
is very close to final. Check the manual for what changed.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
The Req object is no longer passed in Websocket callbacks.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
It is now possible to send frames directly from <code>websocket_init/1</code>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
SPDY support was removed, now that we have HTTP/2.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Update Ranch to 1.3. We still depend on Cowlib master
for the time being.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
A much improved manual.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The manual received a lot of love. It now has one page per
function with a detailed description, arguments list, return
value, changelog and examples. It also links to the other
relevant manual pages: <a href="https://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.0/manual/">https://ninenines.eu/docs/en/cowboy/2.0/manual/</a></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>I am quite proud of the manual right now. While more
improvements can be made, what we have now is way better
than before. Feedback for further improvements is welcome!</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This is a significant step toward Cowboy 2.0. Almost all
the breaking changes are in. A few more pre-releases are
planned and will be released on a weekly basis (with exceptions).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Cowboy is now tested and supported with Erlang/OTP 18.0 or above
on Arch Linux, FreeBSD, OSX, Ubuntu and Windows 7. Contact me
if you can provide permanent access to another platform for the
purposes of testing.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Cowboy is now available from four locations:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
<a href="https://git.ninenines.eu/cowboy.git">https://git.ninenines.eu/cowboy.git</a>

<li>
<p>
<a href="https://gitlab.com/ninenines/cowboy.git">https://gitlab.com/ninenines/cowboy.git</a>
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>They are updated at the same time so there is no real difference.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Cowboy 2.0 will be released once all the breaking changes
are completed and the temporarily removed features are
added back.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Thanks for your patience. I know it took a long time.</p></div>
