Examples

Examples below can naturally be done locally by running the service and replacing https://t-u-s.herokuapp.com with http://localhost:8080.

1. Create an account (provide <ACCOUNT_ID>)

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"AccountId":"<ACCOUNT_ID>"}' https://t-u-s.herokuapp.com/account

2. Generate basic authentication token for the created account (provide <ACCOUNT_ID> & <PASSWORD>)

echo -ne "<ACCOUNT_ID>:<PASSWORD>" | base64 --wrap 0

3. Use the token for URL registration (shortening) (provide <TOKEN> and replace url if wanted)

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Basic <TOKEN>" -X POST -d '{"url":"https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44472730/defining-a-variable-from-a-value-in-a-json-array-in-bash", "redirectType": 302}' https://t-u-s.herokuapp.com/register

4. Test the generated short URL (provide <TOKEN> & <SHORT_URL>)

curl -H "Authorization: Basic <TOKEN>" <SHORT_URL>

5. Retrieve the stats for the created account (provide <TOKEN> & <ACCOUNT_ID>)

curl -H "Authorization: Basic <TOKEN>" https://t-u-s.herokuapp.com/statistic/<ACCOUNT_ID>
