Shorten URLs

This module provides an API to shorten URLs via many services like bit.ly and TinyURL (over 15 services are available by default), as well as a block and a page that provide an interface for easily shortening URLs, and a block that displays a shortened URL for the current page for easy copying.

The module tries to be performance-friendly and can handle service failures smoothly.

Modules

This package contains four modules:

  • Shorten URLs: provides an API and UI for shortening URLs via many common services
  • Record Shortened URLs: keeps track of which URLs have been shortened and displays them to administrators
  • Shorten URLs Custom Services: allows administrators to add custom URL shortening services through the user interface (instead of using the API)
  • Shorten URLs Input Filter: provides an input filter that can automatically shorten URLs in text
