Shaarli VS Shlink

I see your pinboard and I raise one Shaarli

https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli

Hi HN! I feel that the state of this small project of mine is advanced enough to be shared here.

I created this thing because I was growing frustrated of how Shaarli (https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli) worked (but I don't remember why now, though).

Share-links is fairly simple; you add links, maybe tags and a description, and it store them on a small django website, that you can share to your friends too (I'm missing the "links" page on personal websites that made me discover a lot of cool websites).

However, it allow you some more features (favicons before links, autofetch lang & title, basic comment system, multiple users, basic search, highlight posts...) that may interest you.

I'm using an instance since 1 and half year, and it's been great to store the links I find interesting on the web! (I don't took the time to add tags & comments to my links, but I use the search feature a lot).

I hope some of you will start using this project and suggest new features :)

(sorry for my bad english, I'm writing this in a hurry before leaving the computer)

(don't worry if my own instance is down, it's selfhosted and I have a very bad upstream)

I use Shaarli for links, and I have an agent network that, among other things, throws links I want to save into a Wallabag install for archival and reference.

I'm currently using Shaarli installed on a Freeddom Box self hosted on my LAN

How does it compare to shaarli ?

Tangentially related: I'm in search of a lightweight self-hosted URL shortener. Tried shlink[0] but man it's a bit of a bear, requiring 5 (yes, five) separate Docker containers. Also tried kutt[1] but it appears to be abandoned.

IF you just want to setup an internal link shortener, there is software out there for it. We do it at my company. The best one I've found is Shlink: https://shlink.io/

Shlink can do this....

i have just set up shlink.io via /r/portainer and docker-compose. Now i have tried opening the CLI to generate an API key which i need for the shlink web interface but unfortunately it closes in a fraction of a second after bin/cli, showing all available arguments.

Are you looking for stable HTTP/S URLs that you can publish for others to access? One solution to that might be to purchase your own domain and host a little redirector service that bounces the consumer to the real, currently active, cloud URL. Something like https://shlink.io/ might work (but I’ve not used it, and that’s just a suggestion not a recommendation!)

Need to post some links in a small amount of space? You're going to want Shlink (code).

I'm working on setting up Shlink, a self-hosted URL shortening service. I've got it set up in docker and it's working, but now I want to set up a reverse proxy for it. I use HAProxy on pfSense, but in order to make it work, the documentation states that I need to make sure the "consumer's IP address, and the requests domain, are forwarded from the proxy".
