• Generate forward URLs with appended information

Installation

You can install the library via pip after uploading it to PyPI:

Usage

1. Shorten a URL

Use the shorten_url function to shorten a long URL.

from fckafde_shortener import shorten_url

short_url = shorten_url("https://example.com")
if short_url:
    print("Shortened URL:", short_url)
else:
    print("Failed to shorten URL.")

2. De-shorten a fckaf.de Short URL

Use the de_shorten_url function to retrieve the original URL from a fckaf.de short URL.

from fckafde_shortener import de_shorten_url

original_url = de_shorten_url("https://fckaf.de/Xkp")
if original_url:
    print("Original URL:", original_url)
else:
    print("Failed to retrieve the original URL.")

3. Generate Forward URLs

Use the generate_forward_url function to append additional information to a URL retrieved from a fckaf.de short URL, which will be visible in the URL.

from fckafde_shortener import generate_forward_url

forward_url = generate_forward_url("https://fckaf.de/Xkp", "some-info")
if forward_url:
    print("Forward URL:", forward_url)
