ANNOUNCEMENT
Despite being useful to some people, I haven't received a SINGLE sponsorship for this service. As such, I will no longer pay from my own pocket for a rather expensive domain name and accompanying Azure service.
Being OSS, of course you can host this on your own domain and Azure resources and enjoy nice URLs for your own projects. It was fun creating it (especially learning how to do the dynamic badges driven by AppInsights logs :)).
Farewell!
===========
Give Azure DevOps (a.k.a. AzDO) short, beautiful and memorable URLs with no effort.
Because URLs are UI, this project provides a nicer UI on top of the default URLs provided by Azure DevOps. It does so with the following two components:
- A 100% serverless URL redirection powered by Azure Functions 2.0
- A Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browser extension to seamlessly create and copy the URL to the clipboard from the current AzDO page.
The latter is a must since even the most beautiful URIs are annoying to type by hand :).
How it works:
- Install the browser extension from the Chrome store.
- Navigate to a build, release, work item or wiki page in your AzDO project.
- Click the AzDO linkinator icon
in the browser toolbar.
- Paste the URL you got on the clipboard and enjoy!
The following are the supported URL shortening schemes:
NOTE: in all cases, if
org==project, the latter will be omitted in the copied URL to make it even shorter.
Builds
https://build.azdo.io/{org}/{project}/{id}
The ID can be either a specific ID or a build definition ID (a.k.a. pipeline ID). The linkinator will automatically redirect to the right thing.
Releases
http://release.azdo.io/{org}/{project}/{id}
The ID can be either a specific release ID or a release definition ID. The linkinator will automatically redirect to the right thing.
Work Items
http://work.azdo.io/{org}/{project}/{id}
Wiki
