luc comeau 1 discussion post	Anyone has a macro to grab a clipped URL and process it through a Bit.ly account (i.e. my Bit.ly account as opposed to the public one) Thanks! 15 days ago • #1
	Like this. Get your token from here: https://bitly.is/accesstoken Code Copy Select All Toggle Line Wrapping using System; using System.IO; using System.Net; using System.Text; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; using System.Threading.Tasks; public static class ClipboardFusionHelper { // Paste your access token here. You can get it here https://bitly.is/accesstoken private static readonly string bitlyToken = "YOUR TOKEN"; public static string ProcessText(string text) { if (CheckURLValid(text)) { var shortenUrl = Shorten(text).Result; return shortenUrl; } else BFS.Dialog.ShowMessageInfo("It's not a url, or url not valid"); return null; } public static bool CheckURLValid(string url) { Uri uriResult; return Uri.TryCreate(url, UriKind.Absolute, out uriResult) && (uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp \|\| uriResult.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttps); } public static async Task<string> Shorten(string url) { var post = "{\"long_url\": \"" + url + "\"}"; var request = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create("https://api-ssl.bitly.com/v4/shorten"); try { request.Method = "POST"; request.ContentType = "application/json"; request.Headers.Add("Cache-Control", "no-cache"); request.Host = "api-ssl.bitly.com"; request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Bearer " + bitlyToken); using (var requestStream = request.GetRequestStream()) { var postBuffer = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(post); requestStream.Write(postBuffer, 0, postBuffer.Length); } var response = await request.GetResponseAsync(); using (var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream()) { var responseReader = new StreamReader(responseStream, Encoding.UTF8); var json = responseReader.ReadToEnd(); var shortenUrl = Regex.Match(json, @"""link"": ?""(?<link>[^,;]+)""").Groups["link"].Value; return shortenUrl; } } catch (WebException ex) { throw; } } } Of course, it was possible to make a lot simpler, but then it would be needed external references(Newtonsoft Json, RestSharp). So I decided to stop at this option. 11 days ago • #2
