w-wiki

Conveniently shorten URLs using the w.wiki service. Only some Wikimedia projects are supported, see the documentation for more details.

w-wiki's primary shorten function is asynchronous.

let short_url = w_wiki::shorten("https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q575650")
    .await.unwrap();

If you plan on making multiple requests, a Client is available that holds connections.

let client = w_wiki::Client::new();
let short_url = client.shorten("https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q575650")
    .await.unwrap();

This library can be used by any MediaWiki wiki that has the UrlShortener extension installed.

let client = w_wiki::Client::new_for_api("https://example.org/w/api.php");
