Updated AJAX Erlang Jukebox

June 21st, 2007 tonyg

Our jukebox (mentioned previously) received an update yesterday.

• it now uses Erlang’s inets httpd instead of yaws, which reduces external dependencies while also giving the code better structure;
• it now uses a (mostly) RFC 4627-compliant JSON implementation, with a mod_jsonrpc plugin for the inets httpd (also mentioned previously) to expose services via AJAX JSON-RPC;
• the code is laid out based on the OTP design guidelines, is structured as a proper OTP application, and uses supervision hierarchies for robustness.

To download the code,

• Get the RFC4627-and-mod_jsonrpc module (tarball or mercurial repo)
• Get the Jukebox code (tarball or mercurial repo)

There is a little bit of documentation available, and you can browse the code.
