+
+An asynchronous short link backend written in Python based on Tornado and aiomysql
+
+[简体中文](./README_CN.md) | English
+
+## Run
+
+### Clone code and enter the dir
+```shell
+git clone https://github.com/gazedreamily/short_url.git
+cd short_url
+```
+
+### Connect to your mysql database
+```shell
+mysql -u [your mysql username] -p
+```
+
+### Create table
+```sql
+use [database name]
+source [project dir]/surl.sql;
+```
+
+### Change configuration file
+default content of configuration file
+```yaml
+database: # configuration of database
+  host: # servername of database server
+  port: # port of database server
+  user: # username of database server
+  password: # password of database server
+  database: # name of database on database server
+
+sign: # configuration of authentication
+  secret: # secret when adding new url
+
+server: # configuration of web server
+  host: # servername of web server
+  port: # port of web server
+  protocol: # protocol of web server（http、https）
+  ssl: # https(TODO)
+    cert:
+    key:
+```
+fill in the configuration file according to your own situation before running
+
+### Install the operating environment
+Linux
+```shell
+pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+Windows
+```shell
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### just run it!
+Linux
+```shell
+python3 main.py
+```
+
+Windows
+```shell
+python main.py
+```
+
+## Usage
+### Visit
+Use this server configuration like this
+```yaml
+server:
+  host: a.com
+  port: 80
+  protocol: http
+```
+The domain name in the database is recorded as
+
+| id  | source  | target              |  createTime  | expireTime |
+|-----|---------|---------------------|--------------| -----------|
+| 1   | AbcdEfg | https://google.com/ |              |            |
+
+When accessing `http://a.com/AbcdEfg` , the target will be redirected to `https://google.com/`.
+
+The server will return `404` if there is no source record in the database.
+
+### ExpireTime
+When accessing a link, the backend will judge whether the current link has expired. If the link expires, it will delete the link from the database and return `404` 
+
+### Insert a link
+You can use `client.py` to do it.
+
+When inserting a link, the post carries target_url, current timestamp, signature based on timestamp and secret key, and expiration time (optional).

+
+## 运行
+
+### 拉取代码进入目录
+```shell
+git clone https://github.com/gazedreamily/short_url.git
+cd short_url
+```
+
+### 连入数据库
+```shell
+mysql -u 你的mysql用户 -p
+```
+
+### 创建数据表
+```sql
+use 数据库名
+source 项目路径/surl.sql;
+```
+
+### 更改配置文件
+默认配置文件内容
+```yaml
+database: # 此部分为数据库相关配置
+  host: # 数据库主机名（域名）
+  port: # 数据库端口号
+  user: # 数据库用户名
+  password: # 数据库密码
+  database: # 数据库名
+
+sign: # 验证相关
+  secret: # 新增短链接时的验证秘钥
+
+server: # 服务器相关
+  host: # 服务器主机名（域名）
+  port: # 服务端口号
+  protocol: # 服务器链接协议（http、https）
+  ssl: # https证书相关（TODO）
+    cert:
+    key:
+```
+运行前请将以上信息根据个人情况填写
+
+### 安装相关库
+Linux
+```shell
+pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+Windows
+```shell
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### 运行项目
+Linux
+```shell
+python3 main.py
+```
+
+Windows
+```shell
+python main.py
+```
+
+## 使用
+### 访问
+以此server配置为模板
+```yaml
+server:
+  host: a.com
+  port: 80
+  protocol: http
+```
+数据库中域名记录为
+
+| id  | source  | target              |  createTime  | expireTime |
+|-----|---------|---------------------|--------------| -----------|
+| 1   | AbcdEfg | https://google.com/ |              |            |
+
+访问 `http://a.com/AbcdEfg` 时，浏览器会被重定向到 `https://google.com/`
+
+若访问的路径没有对应的目标网址，则会返回404
+
+### 有效时间
+当访问链接时，后端会判断当前链接是否过期，若链接过期，则会从数据库中删除该链接，并返回404
+
+### 插入链接
+可以使用 `client.py` 插入链接
+在插入链接时，post中携带target_url，当前时间戳，基于时间戳和秘钥的签名以及过期时间（可选）
