Shawty: URL Shortener Service

This service shortents URLs and stores them in a SQLite database.

It has 3 features: shorten, unshorten, and redirect.

Deploy

Docker:

docker run -e SHORT_BASE_URL=https://change.me.domain -p 8080:8080 -v $PWD:/data ghcr.io/rubiojr/short:latest

Docker Compose:

version: "3.4"
services:
  short:
    image: "ghcr.io/rubiojr/short:latest"
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - "CHANGEME:/data" # sqlite database path
    environment:
      SHORT_BASE_URL: "https://change.me.domain" # the URL prepended to the redirection link

Using

Shorten:

❯ curl -X POST -d "url=https://noyb.eu"  localhost:8080
https://short.guru/r/cfh0nilr2gts738en740

Your browser will redirect you to noyb.eu if you go to that URL.

Decode:

✖  curl localhost:8080/d/cfh0nilr2gts738en740
https://noyb.eu
