# Shortenit
Shortenit is a tool to shorten urls.
**NOTE**: This is a very early draft project. Contributions are welcome.
## Running
To run `shortenit`, first we need to have a running database. Shortenit uses [CouchDB](https://couchdb.apache.org/) as a database. CouchDB can run as a docker container.
```text
$ docker run -p 5984:5984 -d couchdb
```
At this point, visit the local instance link [http://localhost:5984](http://localhost:5984/) and create the user credentials configured in [config/config.py](config/config.py).
Once the database is up and running and the credentials have been created, shortenit can be ran.
```text
$ pip install -e .
$ shortenit
```
