gShortener

gShortener is a lightweight and simple URL shortener written in Python, using Flask and Redis.

Instructions to install it to the gShortener directory :

pip install redis Flask
git clone https://github.com/Gnomino/gShortener.git

You'll probably want to edit config.json to set up Redis.

When everything is set up, you can either launch it directly :

python app.py

Or use a popular HTTP server with uWSGI, for example.
