A free solution for building your own shortlink service.

Usage

1. Install Deta CLI and login.
2. Run the following commands in your terminal

git clone https://github.com/spihere/shortlink-py-deta
deta new -p shortlink-py-deta
cd shortlink-py-deta
deta deploy

3. The deta new command returns a json formatted string that contains the URL for your instance.
4. use [your-instance-url]/link to access a short link, [url]/new?src=[alias]&to=[target] to create a shortlink, [url]/del?src=[alias]to delete a shortlink.

Example

Create an alias

[url]/new?src=google&target=https://www.google.com

Accessing the alias

[url]/google

Deleting the alias

[url]/del?src=google

By adding DBConnections implementation in the db folder, this application can support other databases. You can do it by creating a new file in db folder and implements a class that inherits DBCOnnection abstract class. You can then change the database variable in main.py to anything you want.
