# url_shortening_service
|
|
|
|
Django 6 URL shortener. `monica_site` (and other trusted callers) mint links over
|
|
Bearer auth on an **API hostname** (may be public DNS). SMS recipients hit
|
|
`GET /<code>` on the **short** domain and get a 302 to the long HTTPS URL.
|
|
|
|
This service is standalone. Do not fold it into `monica_site`.
|
|
|
|
## Two surfaces
|
|
|
|
| Who | Path | Auth | Host |
|
|
|-----|------|------|------|
|
|
| Phone / public internet | `GET /<code>` | none | `SHORT_DOMAIN` (NPM + TLS) |
|
|
| Anyone | `GET /` | none | landing page on the short domain |
|
|
| `monica_site` | `/api/links/` | `Authorization: Bearer name:secret` | own DNS / NPM host — **not** the short domain |
|
|
|
|
The API may be on the public internet. It is not open: every `/api/` request needs a
|
|
named Bearer token. No token / wrong token → **401**. No tokens configured → **503**.
|
|
`GET /<code>` never requires a token.
|
|
|
|
`/api/` and `/admin/` are 404 on the short domain. `/admin/` is also 404 on the
|
|
public API hostname (localhost only). `GET /debug/` is a mint form when
|
|
`DEBUG=true` and never on the short domain.
|
|
|
|
## Local run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
# SHORTENER_API_TOKENS=monica:dev-only-token is already set
|
|
docker compose up --build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or without Docker:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
uv sync
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
cd site && uv run python manage.py migrate
|
|
uv run python manage.py runserver
|
|
# optional local admin:
|
|
# uv run python manage.py createsuperuser
|
|
# then http://127.0.0.1:8005/admin/ (compose) or :8000 (runserver)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Tests (SQLite, no network):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd site && uv run python manage.py test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## CI / deploy (Gitea)
|
|
|
|
Same split as `monica_site`:
|
|
|
|
| Workflow | When | What |
|
|
|----------|------|------|
|
|
| `CI` | pull request → `master` | unit tests |
|
|
| `Deploy Beta` | push / merge to `master` | unit tests → compose tests → deploy **beta** |
|
|
| `Deploy Prod` | **Actions → Run workflow** (button) | unit tests → compose tests → deploy **prod** |
|
|
|
|
Deploy calls `server-infra/scripts/deploy.sh --app url_shortening_service`. Needs [server-infra#22](https://git.aimloperations.com/ai_ml_operations/server-infra/issues/22) first.
|
|
|
|
## Use case
|
|
|
|
1. Your site POSTs to this service with a Bearer token and a long HTTPS URL.
|
|
2. Response `201` includes `short_url` built from `PUBLIC_SHORT_URL` (not the API Host).
|
|
3. A person on the public internet opens that short URL.
|
|
4. This service 302s them to the long URL and increments `click_count`.
|
|
|
|
Mint (API host / localhost):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sS -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8005/api/links/ \
|
|
-H "Authorization: Bearer monica:dev-only-token" \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
|
-d '{"target_url":"https://mkdrealtor.com/","title":"test"}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow (no token — this is the public path):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSI http://127.0.0.1:8005/<code>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Expect `HTTP/1.1 302 Found` and `Location: https://mkdrealtor.com/`.
|
|
|
|
Caller integration (onboard + `/api/links/`): **[API.md](API.md)**.
|
|
|
|
## Caller contract (`monica_site`, other repo)
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
SHORTENER_BASE_URL=https://shortener.aimloperations.com
|
|
SHORTENER_API_TOKEN=monica:<same-secret-as-SHORTENER_API_TOKENS>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```http
|
|
POST /api/links/
|
|
Authorization: Bearer monica:<secret>
|
|
Content-Type: application/json
|
|
|
|
{"target_url":"https://mkdrealtor.com/listings/oak-st?utm_source=monica&utm_medium=sms","title":"Oak St","external_ref":"campaign-uuid"}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`target_url` must be `https` and its host must match `SHORT_ALLOWED_HOSTS`
|
|
(exact or suffix, e.g. `mkdrealtor.com`). Same `target_url` + `external_ref` +
|
|
still-active link returns `200` with the existing row instead of a new code.
|
|
|
|
Do not call the public short hostname to create links.
|
|
|
|
## Environment
|
|
|
|
See `.env.example` and `.env.prod.example`. Prod secrets live in
|
|
`~/Documents/secrets/url_shortening_service/` on the control node.
|
|
|
|
Generate tokens and peppers with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Never reuse `DJANGO_SECRET_KEY` as an API token. Never put the token in the
|
|
short URL, logs, or git.
|
|
|
|
## Deploy notes
|
|
|
|
Two NPM hosts, same container `WEB_PORT` (default 8005 prod / 8015 beta):
|
|
|
|
1. `SHORT_DOMAIN` (`aiml.pw` / `cidinn.li`) — `/` landing + `GET /[a-z0-9]{4,8}`.
|
|
Drop `/api/`, `/admin/`, `/debug/`.
|
|
2. API hostname — proxy `/api/` only. Drop `/admin/`. Add that Host to
|
|
`DJANGO_ALLOWED_HOSTS` and `SHORT_API_HOSTS`.
