SOAP services in erlang

Question

Is there any good erlang library for creating / accessing SOAP web services?

Perhaps handling simple XML is quite complicated.

Is Json a good alternative? Any lib for this?

My goal is to interact with existing .Net web services.

thanks

Answer 1

Yaws (Erlang web server) has a Soap Module , but soap is little used in the Erlang community. Json is the best bet.

The Mochiweb kit , which you can use to create your own servers (not to panic it is easier than it seems) has good Json support .

Nothing to add to the above answer, except that Mochiweb now has a new address: http://github.com/mochi/mochiweb
