Denok

A self hosted Link Shortener built with Dotnet (C#) and Rust, as an alternative to services like bitly.

Requirements

• Dotnet https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download
• Rust (rustc version 1.50+) https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
• Docker and docker-compose https://www.docker.com/community/open-source

Preparation

You need at least three domains, or three sub domains to run the two Denok components. First domain for Web Dashboard, second domain for Redirector, third domain to catch error when Redirector cannot find unique URL code in database.

Two domain must be in the environment variable. Open the .env.development file, and adjust with yours.

For example:

DOMAIN_NAME=https://link.mydom.com
DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND=http://help.mydom.com

Build

For build and run, simply run

$ docker-compose up -d

Inspect

Two Denok component will run in the different processes, Web Dashboard will run on port 9010 and Redirector will run on port 9011.

Or inspect the docker processes with docker ps

$ docker ps

Expose to the internet

Both Web Dashboard and Redirector will run on non standard port, so you need to use reverse proxy server like nginx.

Open the nginx folder.
