A Simple Node.js CLI Utility to create redirecting shortlinks on your own website.
Install using npm
or yarn
:
npm install -g shortlinker
yarn global add shortlinker
Then run it:
shortlinker https://github.com/flxwu/shortlinker GH-Link
will create a GH-Link.html
file in your current directory that redirects to https://github.com/flxwu/shortlinker
.
Use -D
to specify the directory in which the redirect-file will be put into:
shortlinker https://github.com/flxwu/shortlinker GH-Link -D code/flxwu.github.io/links/
Given the website root is flxwu.github.io
, I can now access the shortlink via flxwu.github.io/links/GH-Link.html
.
Use -G
to enable automatic version control commit and push:
shortlinker https://github.com/flxwu/shortlinker GH-Link -D code/flxwu.github.io/links/ -G
shortlinker now creates the same shortlink as above, but also commits the new file and pushes it to the remote repository.
