New module: url shortener

Open TrianguloY opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

A module to shorten the input url.

Will need to use a shortener provider.

I don't know if I should open a new request, or place this one here...

~~Would it be possible to add to this module (or to URLCheck) the ability to unshorten urls?~~

~~This would be very positive, whether for practicality (time saving, no advertising problem or excessive redirections) only for the safety of the user (the shortened urls make it possible to hide a dangerous url)~~

~~- It would be great if this could be done locally (i.e. without using an online service to unshorten the links)~~

~~- It would be useful to have an option to automatize the unshortening of urls~~

~~I absolutely don't know if it's usable, but here are projects aimed at this objective (un-shorten url links)~~

~~1. https://github.com/aliazhar-id/unshorter 2. https://github.com/nodeca/url-unshort~~

Yes, please, open it as a new issue so that it can be discussed properly (as soon as I have time!)
