# emacs-git-io
[](https://melpa.org/#/git-io)
Interactive command to replace github URL at point with a shortened one using [git.io](https://git.io/).
Gets the URL at current cursor position, makes a request to [git.io](https://git.io/)
to get the shortened URL and replaces the original url with the shortened one.
**Note:** This package uses [git.io](https://git.io/) which works only for github URLs.
## Installation:
* **MELPA**: Package is available for install in MELPA - `git-io`
* **Manual**: Place the `git-io.el` file in your loadpath
and require it: `(require 'git-io)`.
## Usage:
Once the package is loaded, an interactive command `git-io-shorten` is available.
Point on the github url and invoke `git-io-shorten` command: `M-x git-io-shorten`.
Optionally, bind a key for quick usage:
```elisp
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x \\") 'git-io-shorten)
```
## Example:
See it in action:
## TODO:
* Handle the invalid url error better - give proper message.
* For some strange reason [git.io](https://git.io/) does not work with `http://` urls
check for `http://` urls and convert them to `https://` before making request.
* Write some tests.
