The FTShorten Class is a development branch of the URL Shortener Plugin.
This PHP Class lies at the core of that plugin and provides the interface needed to send and receive a URL Shortening request to the list of supported services.
Updates to this class will be independent from the main URL Shortener Plugin branch.
Currently Supported Services
- tinyurl
- is.gd
- su.pr
- bit.ly
- tr.im
- short.ie
- snipurl (aka Snurl / Snipr )
- cl.gs
- short.to
- ping.fm
- chilp.it
- smsh (aka sm00sh)
- u.nu
- unfake.it
- Awe.sm
Usage
| Description | Property |
|---|---|
| A new class instance | $shorturl = new FTShorten(); |
| URL Service | $shorturl->service |
| URL to Shorten | $shorturl->url |
| Service Username | $shorturl->name |
| Service Password / User Key | $shorturl->apikey |
| Define Prefix (for Snipurl / Snurl/ Snipr) | $shorturl>apiprefix |
| Define Ping.fm Developer API key | $shorturl->pingfmapi |
Notes: If Snipurl / Snurl / Snipr service is required, set “service” to “snipurl” and define the desired domain using “apiprefix”
In the Works (future):
I am currently working on providing a general option which allows the developer or user to define their own custom shortening server uri, thus allowing more flexibility not confined to the current list of services. This may also allow a less bulky class.
