A very simple urlshortener for Rust.

This library aims to implement only URL shortener services which do not
require any authentication (ex: goo.gl, bit.ly) and to provide an interface as
minimal and simple as possible.

The reason for this is that users of such a library might only need to get the
shortened URL, rather than a service using authentication. This is also a reason
that this library aims to use as few dependencies as possible.


## Implementations

Currently the following URL shorteners are implemented:

- `bn.gy`
- `is.gd`
- `readability.com`
- `v.gd`
- `bam.bz`
- `fifo.cc`
- `tiny.ph`
- `tny.im`
- `s.coop`
- `bmeo.org`

The following services are supported, but are discouraged from use, due to
restrictions such as rate limits:

- `tinyurl.com`
- `psbe.co`
- `rlu.ru`
- `sirbz.com`
- `hec.su`
- `abv8.me`
- `nowlinks.net`


## Usage

```rust
extern crate urlshortener;

use urlshortener::UrlShortener;

fn main() {
    let us = UrlShortener::new();
    let long_url = "https://google.com";
    println!("Short url for google: {:?}", us.try_generate(long_url));
}
```
