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.
.. code:: text
$ docker run -p 5984:5984 -d couchdb
At this point, visit the local instance `link <http://localhost:5984/>`_ and create the user credentials configured in ``config/config.py``.
Once the database is up and running and the credentials have been created, shortenit can be ran.
.. code:: text
$ pip install -e .
$ shortenit
