linkie 
A simple url shortener. Largely adapting VandyHacks/vhl.ink with the aim of providing a more ptpb-like experience (i.e the fewest keystrokes from a cli possible while still being reasonably secure for private use)
Deploying
Come up with a username:password, base64 encode them, add them to a secret as AUTH_KEY = Basic $secret, create a new KV namespace called KV, then wrangler deploy
Alternatively, get your AUTH_KEY, click the Deploy to Cloudflare Workers button above, once it's forked the repo go there and set up your Actions secrets and variables in Settings > Security, with AUTH_KEY and CF_API_TOKEN as secrets and DEPLOY_HOST as the domain you're hosting linkie on (defaulting to https://linkie.your-username.workers.dev)
Usage
curl -n -d u=http://example.com linkie/path will make http://linkie/path 302 redirect to the provided url. use .netrc to store the auth username/password (inspired by ix.io). Yes it supports emoji
curl -n -F 'u=<-' linkie/path will make the path 302 redirect to the url provided on stdin. Doesn't support more than one url or anything that's not a url. For instance:
curl -F 'u=<-' linkie/_ <<EOF
http://example.com
http://example.com?2
EOF
linkie/path => http://example.comhttp//example.com?2
curl -n -d u=http://example.com linkie/_, if you provide an underscore as the path linkie will generate a four character path from a-z0-9. if it has a collision five times in a row it'll return 500.. at that point i'd probably increase the length of the random ids in the function at the top of index.js to 5 or something, and also i should get off the internet because i've generated 36^4 short urls with this service and that's insane
See test.py for more usage and test cases
