A very simple link shortening service. Built on Actix Web with RocksDB.
See it in action on go.vech.ro
This project is built with the intention that you'll serve it through Docker container, behind a web server of choice (Nginx, Apache, Caddy).
You will need a .env file (or some other method to set environment variables) and provide the following values:
# The server doesn't know its own domain name, so you'll have to provide one
VANITY_DOMAIN = go.vech.ro
# Where the static assets are hosted
ASSETS_URL = vech.ro/assets
# These two are optional, this will default to 0.0.0.0
HOST = 127.0.0.1
# This will default to 80
PORT = 8080
# The salt will be used to randomize the shortened URLs
SALT = hello
# Where RocksDB will store everything
