Installation

Usage

We have two main methods, the first one is shorten and the second one is shortenMany.
The first one is used to shorten just one URL at a time. Example:

const shortener = require('chl.li');

shortener
  .shorten('https://google.com', {
    timeout: 5000,
    alias: 'google',
    expires: 15, // Minutes
  })
  .then(shortURL => console.log(`The short url is ${shortURL}`))
  .catch(err => console.log(err.message));

The second one can be used to shorten multiple URLs together. Example:

const shortener = require('chl.li');

shortener
  .shortenMany(
    [
      {
        url: 'https://google.com/',
        alias: 'google',
      },
      {
        url: 'https://yahoo.com',
        alias: 'yahoo',
        expires: 10, // Minutes
      },
    ],
    {
      timeout: 5000,
    }
  )
  .then(shortURLs => {
    shortURLs.forEach(console.log);
  })
  .catch(err => console.log(err.message));
