Self Hosted Url Shortener

the API is not stable yet. It will be stabilized soon and some real docs will follow ;)

Config

The config file should be config.{yml,json,ini,...} (all formats provided by https://github.com/spf13/viper#what-is-viper) and it is expected in /etc/shush or in the same location as shush executable.

The config file location may also be set as param ./shush -confFile conf-test.yml

Config options (shown in yaml format)

log:
  level: Info # default, using levels from https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus#level-logging

Only one backend may be configured

backend:
  in-mem: # data stored only in memory, this is not a persistent storage
  json-file:
    path: file.json # path to file which will store values encoded as json, this backend should be used for testing only. It is not suitable for production deployment

  badger: # default
    path: badger # default, path to badger db
