== DESCRIPTION:
  
A Camping implementation of Tiny URL, but even more tiny.  If you drink 
too much while camping this is what happens, but even smaller.  What you 
can do with an idea borne in PHP, but with less code using Ruby and 
metaprogramming.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
  
Enter URL, get back an even smaller URL.

== REQUIREMENTS:

* camping
* mime-types
* erubis
* sqlite3-ruby
* mysql
* alphadecimal http://github.com/JackDanger/Alphadecimal

== INSTALL:

* git clone [email protected]:monde/hurl.git
* modify template erb's in templates directory to suit your desires
* modify urchin.txt in templates directory for Google Analytics support

== Administrative

The admin directory contains an example RV harness yaml configuration file, 
see "rv, a tool for luxurious camping" by Evan Weaver for more information:
http://blog.evanweaver.com/articles/2006/12/19/rv-a-tool-for-luxurious-camping

When running in testing mode Hurl will use a local SQLite3 database.  When
running in productiton mode Hurl will use a MySQL database.  See the 
db migration to examine how the db is tuned based on the running mode.

See http://camping.rubyforge.org/files/README.html for more information about
