|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Run this two steps in a playground:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```smalltalk
|
|
|
|
"Start by loading the configuration of Shortener"
|
|
|
|
Gofer new
|
|
|
|
url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Offray/Shortener/main';
|
|
|
|
package: 'ConfigurationOfShortener';
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* To shorten a link do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`Shortener shorten: 'https://pharo.org'`, which produces something like: `'https://is.gd/cQWvtm'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* To enlarge a link do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`Shortener enlarge: 'https://is.gd/cQWvtm'`, which, conversely, produces `'https://pharo.org'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* To shorten a link with an explicit alias do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`Shortener shorten: 'https://pharo.org' as: 'pharo'`, which produces `'https://is.gd/pharo'`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or will raise an error once a short url have been taken.
|
|
|
|
For example, by running the previous example the alias 'pharo' has been taken for all future
|
|
|
|
short urls and can not be used again (you will need to pick a new short url alias).
