# YOURLS API Action List Extended

**Plugin Name**: YOURLS API Action List Extended
**Version**: 1.0.0
**Author**: Hardeep Asrani
**Author URI**: [https://themeisle.com](https://themeisle.com)
**Plugin URI**: [https://github.com/Codeinwp/yourls-api-list-extended](https://github.com/Codeinwp/yourls-api-list-extended)
**Description**: YOURLS API List action with sorting, pagination, total count, and field selection.

## Description

This plugin extends the YOURLS API by adding a `list` action with advanced capabilities. It allows users to retrieve a list of shortened URLs with options for:

- Sorting by keyword, URL, title, timestamp, IP address, or clicks.
- Pagination using offset and limit (per page).
- Custom selection of fields to be returned in the API response.
- Searching by keyword.
- Total count of links to assist with pagination.

## Features

- **Sorting**: Sort results by any valid field (`keyword`, `url`, `title`, `timestamp`, `ip`, `clicks`).
- **Pagination**: Use the `offset` and `perpage` parameters to paginate results.
- **Field Selection**: Select specific fields to return (e.g., `keyword`, `url`, `clicks`). By default, all fields are returned.
- **Search**: Search for links by keyword.
- **Total Count**: Returns the total number of links in the database, useful for pagination.

## Installation

1. Download and extract the plugin.
2. Upload the plugin folder to your YOURLS `user/plugins/` directory.
3. Activate the plugin from the YOURLS admin interface.
4. The plugin will automatically extend the YOURLS API with the new `list` action.

## API Usage

### Base URL

Use the following base URL for API requests:

```
http:///yourls-api.php
```

### Required Parameters

- `signature`: Your YOURLS API signature token.
- `action`: Must be set to `list`.
- `format`: Optional. Specify `json` for JSON responses (default).

### Optional Parameters

- `sortby`: Field to sort by (`keyword`, `url`, `title`, `timestamp`, `ip`, `clicks`). Default is `timestamp`.
- `sortorder`: Sort order, either `ASC` (ascending) or `DESC` (descending). Default is `DESC`.
- `offset`: Number of links to skip (used for pagination). Default is `0`.
- `perpage`: Number of links to return per page. Default is `50`.
- `query`: Search query to filter results by keyword.
- `fields[]`: An array of fields to return (e.g., `fields[]=keyword&fields[]=url`). Default is all fields (`*`).

### Example Request

```
GET http:///yourls-api.php?action=list&signature=your_signature&sortby=clicks&sortorder=ASC&offset=0&perpage=10&fields[]=keyword&fields[]=url
```

This example retrieves the first 10 results, sorted by clicks in ascending order, and returns only the `keyword` and `url` fields.

"statusCode": 200,
