#Deploy database
my $dsn = 'dbi:SQLite:dbname=:memory:';
my $schema = Net::Lujoyglamour->connect($dsn);
$schema->deploy({ add_drop_tables => 1});
#Most straighforward way to use
if ( is_valid( "shortie" ) {
$schema->create_new_short( "very.long.url/like/this",
"shortie" );
}
$schema->create_new_short( "even.longer.url/this/and/that" );DESCRIPTION
Model/Control part of a framework intended for creating short URLs. Inherits from DBIx::Class, and adds functionality for creating a keeping a table of long/short URLs. Funky name comes from the novel lujoyglamour.net, in Spanish, which I also wrote, and you can check out at http://lujoyglamour.es.
INTERFACE
connect( $dsn[, $username] [, $password] [, \%attr] )
Actually, inherited from DBIx::Class, but useful here too
deploy
Also inherited, used for creating the database from the schema description in the class
is_valid( $string )
Check for requested short URL validity; alphanumeric characters are allowed only
generate_candidate_url
Generates a random URL
create_new_short ( $long_url[, $short_url] )
Creates and inserts into the database a new short URL, optionally using a requested short URL.
DIAGNOSTICS
Url space exhausted!!-
No more URLs availables. You probably have a very successful site
Invalid short URL $want_short-
Requested URL invalid
CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT
You need to have a database system ready and able. If there's none installed, SQLite will do nicely.
DEPENDENCIES
DBIx::Class, String::Random and drivers for database system.
INCOMPATIBILITIES
None reported.
BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Other than the limited space available, for the time being there are none.
