§w-wiki
Conveniently shorten URLs using the w.wiki service.
Only some Wikimedia projects are supported,
see the documentation
for more details.
w-wiki’s primary shorten function is asynchronous.
let short_url = w_wiki::shorten("https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q575650")
.await.unwrap();If you plan on making multiple requests, a Client is available that holds
connections.
let client = w_wiki::Client::new();
let short_url = client.shorten("https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q575650")
.await.unwrap();This library can be used by any MediaWiki wiki that has the UrlShortener extension installed.
let client = w_wiki::Client::new_for_api("https://example.org/w/api.php");
