cdk-url-shortener


Deploy a URL shortener with custom domain support in just a few lines of code.

cdk-url-shortener is an AWS CDK L3 construct that will create a URL shortener with custom domain support. The service uses nanoid to generate URL-friendly unique IDs and will retry if an ID collision occurs.
Additionally, you can enable DynamoDB streams to capture changes to items stored in the DynamoDB table.

Installation
TypeScript/JavaScript
$ npm install @rayou/cdk-url-shortener

Python
$ pip install rayou.cdk-url-shortener

.Net
$ nuget install CDK.URLShortener

# See more: https://www.nuget.org/packages/CDK.URLShortener/

Usage
Basic
# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
from rayou.cdk_url_shortener import URLShortener

URLShortener(self, "myURLShortener")

Custom Domain
# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
import aws_cdk.aws_route53 as route53
import aws_cdk.aws_certificatemanager as acm
from rayou.cdk_url_shortener import URLShortener

zone = route53.HostedZone.from_lookup(self, "HostedZone",
domain_name="mydomain.com"
)

# Optional, a DNS validated certificate will be created if not provided.
certificate = acm.Certificate.from_certificate_arn(self, "Certificate", "arn:aws:acm:region:123456789012:certificate/12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012")

URLShortener(self, "myURLShortener").add_domain_name(
domain_name="foo.mydomain.com",
zone=zone,
certificate=certificate
)

Multiple Custom Domains
# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
import aws_cdk.aws_route53 as route53
from rayou.cdk_url_shortener import URLShortener

zone = route53.HostedZone.from_lookup(self, "HostedZone",
domain_name="mydomain.com"
)

URLShortener(self, "myURLShortener").add_domain_name(
domain_name="foo.mydomain.com",
zone=zone
).add_domain_name(
domain_name="bar.mydomain.com",
zone=zone
)

⚠️ Please note that although we have added two custom domains, they are pointed to the same URL shortener instance sharing the same DynamoDB table, if you need both domains run independently, create a new URL shortener instance.
Enable DynamoDB Streams
# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
import aws_cdk.aws_lambda as lambda_
import aws_cdk.aws_dynamodb as dynamodb
import aws_cdk.aws_lambda_event_sources as lambda_event_sources

from rayou.cdk_url_shortener import URLShortener

table = dynamodb.Table(self, "Table",
partition_key=Attribute(
name="id",
type=dynamodb.AttributeType.STRING
),
stream=dynamodb.StreamViewType.NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES
)

URLShortener(self, "myURLShortener",
dynamo_table=table
)

stream_handler_code = "'use strict';\n exports.handler = async (event) => {\n console.log('Received event:', JSON.stringify(event, null, 2));\n for (const record of event.Records) {\n console.log(record.eventID);\n console.log(record.eventName);\n console.log('DynamoDB Record: %j', record.dynamodb);\n }\n console.log(`Successfully processed ${event.Records.length} records.`);\n };"

lambda_fn = lambda_.Function(self, "myStreamHandler",
runtime=lambda_.Runtime.NODEJS_12_X,
handler="index.handler",
code=lambda_.Code.from_inline(stream_handler_code)
)

lambda_fn.add_event_source(
lambda_event_sources.DynamoEventSource(table,
starting_position=lambda_.StartingPosition.LATEST
))

Create your first short URL


After the deployment, you'll see ApiKeyURL and ApiEndpoint in CDK Outputs, visit ApiKeyURL to get your API key.
Outputs:
stack.CustomDomainApiEndpointcc4157 = https://mydomain.com
stack.myURLShortenerApiEndpoint47185311 = https://yrzxcvbafk.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/prod/
stack.ApiKeyURL = https://console.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/home?#/api-keys/k2zxcvbafw6



Run this cURL command to create your first short URL, an ID will be returned in the response.
$ curl https://{API_ENDPOINT} /
-X POST \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-H 'x-api-key: {API_KEY}' \
-d '{
"url": "https://github.com/rayou/cdk-url-shortener"
}'

{"id":"LDkPh"}



Visit https://{API_ENDPOINT}/{ID} then you'll be redirected to the destination URL.
$ curl -v https://{API_ENDPOINT}/{ID} # e.g. https://mydomain.com/LDkPh
