Wash Tiny URL Shortener

Wash is tiny url shortener composer package that will store a url and return a tiny url from a JSON REST API request., _(*1)

It is build to work from the index file and will identify a tiny url and redirect or else continue with your regular website. Some .htaccess magic might be required though., _(*2)

I use this together with a keyword workfow in Alfred that will copy the shortened url to clipboard., _(*3)

Wash can also be used with the Wash Android App, _(*4)

Hits on shortened url will create a pageview in Google Analytics., _(*5)

Wash is available on Packagist, _(*6)

This is built for my own use as I happen to own a super short domain and needed something self-hosted., _(*7)
