This is the API server for the link shortener on abbr.ninja.

API endpoint documentation

Source code for:

• API documentation
• Frontend

Refer to requirements.txt.

podman was used to run and build the container but this should also work for docker.

1. Populate config.toml with your desired settings.
2. Clone from the API doc repository and build the document.
3. Copy the build directory from the API doc directory to this directory where the path should be ./doc/build.
4. Run podman build -t <INSERT_CONTAINER_NAME> . in the root directory of the repository containing the Dockerfile.
5. Start your container by podman run --network <INSERT_CONTAINER_NETWORK_NAME> -p <INSERT_HOST_PORT>:8081 -d -t <INSERT_CONTAINER_NAME>

You would also need a MariaDB server running and a database named uri_shortener created.
