Linkbox

Linkbox is a very simple URL shortener and file upload box.

Dependencies

Usage

;; You can start Linkbox like this:

(hunchentoot:start
 (linkbox:make-linkbox :url "http://localhost:5000/" ; With trailing /
                       :path "/tmp/linkbox/storage/" ; With trailing /
                       :id-file "/tmp/linkbox/id"
                       :targets-file "/tmp/linkbox/targets"
                       :port 5000
                       :auth "test")) ; Will be used for authentication

;; It should now be running. Example use:

; $ curl http://localhost:5000/ --form auth=test --form url=http://joram.io
; $ curl http://localhost:5000/ --form auth=test --form file=@file.extension

;; On success you'll receive a URL that either redirects to the target or
;; displays the file.

You could set up something like Nginx to try serving files from the directory passed into :path before directing them to the Linkbox server.
