YOURLS-Update-30X

Utility to check for endpoint URL redirections and update the long URL in YOURLS

Features

  • Can work on individual keywords, domain based long url's, or the entire database
  • Returns number of attempts, successes, failures, and an array of unreachable links
  • Indexes the YOURLS_url table when enabled
  • API based to avoid PHP script execution limitation (This can be time consuming)

Installation

  • Copy the update30X folder into YOURLS/user/plugins/
  • Enable in admin area.

API

  • action=u30X
    If sent alone, this will check the entire table.
  • keyword=KEYWORD
    Use this to check a single record. Good for testing purposes.
  • domain=EXAMPLE.COM
    Use this to restrict the check to a single domain.

Example Use Case:

This plugin was written to manage multiple URL redirects resulting from a Drupal to Wordpress migration.

  • Convert your data to Wordpress and make use of either the recommended Redirection or Simple 301 Redirects plugin.
  • Retreive redirect data from the Wordpress database and RegEx the daylights out of that dataset so that redirects can be set up in .htaccess with something like the following:
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(q=node/1234)$  
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://example.com/?p=23 [R=301,L]  
RewriteRule ^/?node/1234w/? https://example.com/?p=23 [R=301,L]
  • Once the redirects are set up, merely run a command like the following:
$ curl --data "format=json&signature=0YOUR0API0KEY&action=u301&domain=example.com" https://sho.rt/yourls-api.php | python -m json.tool

Note:

With a YOURLS URL database of roughly 450 links, this process took roughly 3 minutes. Appx. 10 seconds was shaved off of this time with the table index. Please verify that it has been created before attempting large checks.
