The application uses [bit.ly](https://bitly.com/) to shorten the urls and check they are from the BBC. This service require a bit.ly api key and account which can be got for free from the bit.ly website. Once you have these credentials the app expects them to live in a file called .bitlyrc in your home directory.

Once the app is running, go to the url:

http://app.location/300?url=http://www.bbc.co.uk

Where 300 is the width in pixels you would like the qrcode to be and the url to be encoded.
