Pumpkin Spice Linkté

A permashortlink engine (a.k.a. "URL shortener").

Proof-of-concept and exercise in test-driven development. Definitely not prod-ready. For one thing, there is no real persistance layer. Database is just a thin interface for an in-memory JavaScript object.

Setup

1. cp .env.example .env
2. Set BASE_URL in .env file
3. npm install

Usage

const Database = require("src/Database");
const Engine = require("src/Engine");

const database = new Database();
const engine = new Engine(database);

let longUrl = "https://github.com/";
let shortUrl = engine.shorten(longUrl); // https://github.com/{UNIQUE_HASH}

engine.lookup(shortUrl);                // https://github.com/
