tinyurl.com is blocked to prevent spam in most Wikimedia wikis (including Wikidata) so it's not possible to link to a shortened query from Wikidata discussions.
How about storing the shortened queries in a database as part of the Wikidata Query Service (e.g. https://query.wikidata.org/x/SHORTCODE)? This could be extended to a public list of sample queries.
Hi,
Another option of tinyurl.com can be https://goo.gl/.Which is google's application.With the use of google.gl You can see how many people have clicked on your URL by visiting goo.gl.
It is easy to implement also:
Or we can integrate this API to any platform.
Below is script to use it with PHP:
Place your API Key,created from your account
<?php
Url to shorten
$longUrl = 'http://www.learn-drupal.in';
$apiKey = 'Your Api key here';
You can get API key here : Login to google and
go to http://code.google.com/apis/console/
Find API key under credentials under APIs & auth.
You will need to do necessary things to get key there. :)
Watch video below.
// * No need to modify any of the code line below. *
$postData = array('longUrl' => $longUrl, 'key' => $apiKey);
$jsonData = json_encode($postData);
$curlObj = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url?key='.$apiKey);
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type:application/json'));
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($curlObj, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $jsonData);
$response = curl_exec($curlObj);
$json = json_decode($response);
curl_close($curlObj);
echo 'Shortened URL ->'.$json->id;
?>
