App built with FastAPI. It is a high performance framework In the process of writing the application, only asynchronous programming was used (except cpu-bound operation). All i/o-bound operations are asynchronous.
App using a postgres database. All information about links is recorded in it. The Database contains one table
| id | original | modified |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | https://google.com/ | mrknROpKuogikvRGDiHX |
| 2 | https://example.com/ | jYJKeSjnDcOvJwItGrZs |
The table is automatically created (if the table does not exist) every time when starting app.
It's possible because of
pg_table_builder module.
After successful record in postgres database data save in a redis database. Data keep in key=value format in RAM machine. It's really fast!
Website created with a Bootstrap framework. Bootstrap supports mobile screen size.
The application checks whether the data is in the cache. For this reason, data is rapid and redirection occurs unnoticed.
App has protection that compares original and modified links. It'd protect from infinite creating same links.
The application allows you to send POST HTTP requests to receive a modified link. For example:
Request:
import requests
requests.post(
'<Your address>/',
json={"original_url": "https://google.com/"})Response:
{"endpoint": "https://<Your address>/mrknROpKuogikvRGDiHX/"}First, install a virtual environment py -m venv venv.
Next, you need activating venv. Windows: .\Scripts\activate Linux: source bin/activate.
Most Python IDEs can on one's own create virtual environment. Also, you need to create env variable.
You can use dotenv or your IDE. DB_CONNECTION_STRING=postgres://...
Then you need to install all requirements:
move to the root directory of the project and type pip install -r requirements.txt.
For launch FastAPI I'm using uvicorn.
You can choose parameters of launch (host, port) if it is necessary.
After this, you can start a project, for example py setup.py.
