A minimal Laravel package for shortening URLs. Apart for creating short URLs - like bitly - it also supported updating URL redirects and tracking URL clicks.

Laravel URL Shortener

Install the package. It supports Laravel 5.5 and up (including 7.0 and up).

composer require arietimmerman/laravel-url-shortener
php artisan migrate

And start shortening URLs

(string)URLShortener::shorten("http://www.example.com");

Or

php artisan url:shorten http://www.example.com

Usage for Laravel < 5.5

Add the service provider in your config/app.php.

'providers' => [ /* [..] */ \ArieTimmerman\Laravel\URLShortener\ServiceProvider::class /* [..] */ ];

Optional

Publish the configuration and the view.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="ArieTimmerman\Laravel\URLShortener\ServiceProvider"

Optionally, register for URLVisit events in your EventServiceProvider.

protected $listen = [
	'ArieTimmerman\Laravel\URLShortener\Events\URLVisit' => [
		'App\Listener\YourListener',
	]
];

Configuration

See config/urlshortener.php

Docker

Build and start the docker container.

docker-compose up

Now shorten an URL like this

docker-compose exec laravel-url-shortener php artisan url:shorten https://www.example.com

Check out the redirect

curl -v http://localhost:18123/code
