- redirect time will depend on browser speed and computer performance, but the deviation from under 1 second will usually be negligible
- Ultra fast redirect time
- built in animations (randomized)
- message display
- auto refresh (if you click the back button it goest back to and stays on the page, and it it stays for more than 3 second it will automatically refresh and redirect)
- password site access (for this to be useful, you probably want to make your repo private, otherwise, anyone can see the passwords, as well as your auth tokens)
- for password enabled redirects, user will be prompted to enter password
- alternate authentication - for you to be able to access all the redirects without the passwords to each one
- modify username and password in redirects.csv file
- It's hosted like this on my GitHub pages
- This will make the shortened URL pretty short, .github.io/r/
- Alternatively, this repos could be renamed to r and used.
- Fork this repo and rename it "r" or "redirect" (shorter is better, see above) - alternatively, you could copy the folder named "r" or "redirect" and put it in your .github.io repo
- Edit the accounts.csv file to add keywords and urls which will be used. (put passwords in the third column, but those are optional and can be left blank
- All done! Star this repo if you like it or use it
- For a more comprehensive explanation, see this article (not done yet)
- This Redirector uses 4 relatively simple animations, which can be easily modified by editing the file.
