Serves my website and acts as a URL shortener
This is currently deployed on Vercel and the links are stored in an Airtable base. This does have the unintended side effect of my links not working when Airtable goes down, so I need to think of a solution to that, but I'm not really interested in using an actual database and then having to make some sort of UI to manage links, so it will stay as is for now.
Here's my Airtable base: https://airtable.com/shrJNnm6FZJgwBEev
Try it at v0.jasonaa.me and v0.jasonaa.me/github!
To deploy this on Vercel, just click this button! Make sure you set these environmental variables! AIRTABLE_API_KEY, AIRTABLE_BASE_ID, DEFAULT_URL
You'll probably need to make some changes in vercel.json
. Here's a sample vercel.json
. These are the 2 required routes, but you can add more. Don't delete these, as they are required to make the app work, but you can edit the /
route to go to the URL of your actual site.
{
"routes": [
{ "src": "/", "dest": "https://wherever.yoursite.is/" },
{ "src": "/(.*)", "dest": "/api/main?redir=$1" }
]
}
