urupam

urupam is a lightweight URL shortener built with Perl and Mojolicious, and backed by Redis.

Basic requirements

• Perl 5.42.0
• Carton (handles perl deps)
• Redis

Installation

Run the installation script:

scripts/install.sh

Enable and start the systemd service:

sudo systemctl enable --now urupam

Using docker

Build the image and use the docker-compose file:

cd docker
docker build -t urupam .
docker compose up -d

Hacking

To run the application in development, you'll first need a Redis server.

The easiest way is to start a local Redis instance using Docker:

docker run --name mojo-redis -p 6379:6379 -d redis

Install Perl dependencies with Carton:

carton install

Add your changes and your tests, then start the application with morbo:

carton exec morbo bin/urupam

The application will listen on port 3000 by default.

Running tests

As every perl project, tests are located in the t directory.

To run tests, use the carton command:

carton exec prove -lr t/

To run specific tests (like integration tests), use:

carton exec prove -lr t/integration.t
