NAME

WWW::Shorten::OneShortLink - Perl interface to 1sl.net

SYNOPSIS

  use WWW::Shorten::OneShortLink;

  use WWW::Shorten 'OneShortLink';

  $short_url = makeashorterlink($long_url);

  $long_url  = makealongerlink($short_url);

DESCRIPTION

A Perl interface to the web site 1sl.net. OneShortLink simply maintains a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier.

Functions

The function makeashorterlink will call the OneShortLink web site passing it your long URL and will return the shorter OneShortLink version.

The function makealongerlink does the reverse. makealongerlink will accept as an argument either the full OneShortLink URL or just the OneShortLink identifier.

If anything goes wrong, then either function will return undef.

EXPORT

makeashorterlink, makealongerlink
