Pants is a simple service for link shortening, builded with go, elm and love. Created only for educational purposes. It provides beautiful UI expierence and simple REST API. It's really easy to build and run it!
You can check sample running application here. Please have mercy when using it.
Basically you just need to install go and elm compiler. But if you're not using some decent unix-like operatiny system you will also need to install GNU/make.
Clone this repo, enter the directory and run:
$ cd app
$ make app
$ ./pants
Voila! You are running pants on port 8080. Contragulations!
You can easly deploy this application with provided Dockerfiles for app and view, so you don't have to install all the dependencies and bundlers directly on your machine.
pants also ships with docker-compose file, so you can easly hack on it with:
$ docker-compose up -d
or
$ podman-compose up -d
Check out API specification for further informations.
Fork it, create your own branch, hack it and pull it.
