Anyone looking for a fun small rust project? Create a crate for cleaning urls, based on the ClearUrls project
This would entail:
.clean(input_url) -> StringLemmy issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4905
@dessalines Did something similar last night. Might take a look into using ClearURLs instead: https://github.com/diogotcorreia/alt-urls-discord-bot
Nice! Ya that could be made very multi-purpose.
Looks trivial and easy to automate.
I possibly would have done it if they had a test suite.
But unless I didn't look hard enough, they have no tests at all (other than linting)!
Yep, it'd be a pretty small library. I'm not sure if they generate those JSON rules from somewhere else, but either way they could be converted to defined rust objects as part of a build process.
This might be helpful: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/typify
I just released a crate doing exactly that: https://crates.io/crates/clearurls
Let me know if if fits your need or you need anything else. Issues and PRs welcome.
Whoa nice! I'll check it out and see how we can integrate it into lemmy.
