Links API

My personal link shortener API. Made with Go, GORM, Gorilla Mux and MySQL.

Links frontend

Getting started

Firstly, rename .env.sample to .env and fill all the fields with your data. It should me mentioned that ADMIN_GMAIL_ADDRESSES is array of Google accounts email addresses (separated with commas) which can login to the system and perform link creation operation.

Once you filled the config you can run the server via

go run main.go

If you want to build the package, run

go build

Deployment (Dokku)

Create the app container

dokku apps:create app_name

create the mysql database container

dokku mysql:create app_name-db

link database to the container

dokku mysql:link app_name-db app_name

set all the environment variables

dokku config:set PORT=5000 HASH_ID_SALT= ...

add Dokku remote repository

git remote add dokku dokku@server_ip:app_name

and finally push code to the repo

git push dokku master
