# Shortener
This is an small wrapper around the [ethical shortener](https://is.gd/ethics.php) service <https://is.gd>.
## Installation
2022-12-26 22:25:14 +00:00
First install ExoRepo and then run this in a playground:
```smalltalk
2022-12-26 22:25:14 +00:00
ExoRepo new
repository: 'https://code.sustrato.red/Offray/Shortener';
load.
```
## Usage
* To shorten a link do:
`Shortener shorten: 'https://pharo.org'`, which produces something like: `'https://is.gd/cQWvtm'
* To enlarge a link do:
2021-04-01 23:05:10 +00:00
`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).
