+ added plugins to read json and access the header to parse the request for an API request + fixed logic where url param is nil + refactored the new code to a variable to be reused easier + if CONTENT_TYPE header is application/json, reply with json - there could be more refactoring (maybe separating it to a different endpoint) to handle other scenarios, we'll work on that later
simple url shortener
this project is a simple solution to build out a URL shortener using Roda, Falcon, Sequel, and SQLite
the point of this project is to quickly build something and work on continuous deployment while making small refinements to the functional pieces.
the outside pieces of software that this project relies on are sqlite3 and pkgconf.
first you have to install the dependencies:
bundle install
if you want the development group included run this first:
bundle config set --local with 'development'
then create a .env.rb file in the root directory that contains the following ENV attributes:
ENV["APP_SESSION_SECRET"] = {output of a random 64 byte secret}
ENV["DB_NAME"] = {db file name}
after the dependencies are installed, you have to create the db
sequel -m db/migrations sqlite://db/{DB_NAME}
to start the application with Falcon:
rackup -o {ip address} -p {port} -s falcon
