[erlang-questions] REST server

[Brujo Benavides]

As its author, it’s my duty :P to recommend you to take a look at sumo_rest <https://github.com/inaka/sumo_rest> on github or our blog <http://inaka.net/blog/2016/01/04/canillita-your-first-erlang-web-server-V2/>.
It might be more than what you need, but you can probably take advantage of the examples, individual libraries (like cowboy-trails and cowboy-swagger) or even the general architecture approach there.
Cheers!
