Replit.sh: Repl.it's Internal URL Shortener

Preface

If you follow @replit on Twitter, you may have realized some links showing up on our posts starting with the url replit.sh. I have been working on it for almost two weeks now and have decided it is ready for public use. It is currently on version 2.5.3 and version 3.0.0 should come out later this weekend with a lot of improvements (read versions.md for more info).

Notes:

• This URL Shortener can only be run on Repl.it due to it using Repl.it DB.
• Users are managed with Repl.it Auth, so keep that in mind.

Getting Setup

1. Setting Up Your Repl
   1. Press the run on repl.it button below to clone the repository and install the packages:
      This file cannot be displayed: https://repl.it/badge/github/pieromqwerty/Replit.sh
   2. After running your repl, go to to line 11 in main.py and replace https://replit.sh/ with the url your repl is being served to.
   3. Replace Replit.sh on line 12 with the name of your site.
2. Setting Up Your Users
   1. Rename sample.env to .env, as it will be where your user ids are stored.

   3. Paste the URL into the array in your .env file.
      1. For example, if you are the only user and your id is 123456 then your .env file should look like [123456]. If you
      2. If you wanted to add your friend who has id 654321, your .env file would look like [123456,654321].
3. Stop and Start the repl to complete your changes.
