I capture screenshots a lot on my phone, and I need to send them on my PC (chrome especially).
So, instead of the whole long drill (get your charger cable, copy file, etc.), I need to find a short solution.
As everyone recommends, do your homework, I did; I have developed an idea…
Since Kodular Eagle has a new receiving shared image feature, these steps would work for me -
When I capture a screenshot, and move to gallery, I would share the image, where this app would also appear.
As soon as I click my app, it would open, and immediately upload it to cloudinary.
Cloudinary would send me the link, which I will shorten using the bitly API / any other URL shortening API, and display it.
So, my only problem is to find a good and free URL shortening API, and calling it.
Can anyone recommend me any fine API and guide me through the blocks? I am new using APIs in Kodular.
Your idea is to develop an app to send screenshots to the chrome?
Because the “Pushbullet” app does that.
Anyway, your idea is good.
Here’s an interesting option. It’s an open source url shortener. You install it on your server (you can get a free server) and you have your own url shortener.
Also thanks for recommending the app, I would surely check if it fulfils my requirements
I would prefer bit.ly instead, coz it has gained my trust, I’ve been using it since 3 years… I asked weather more easier option is available, until @vknow360 tagged a helpful topic.
yourls is also a very good and open source URL shortener.
If you are thinking to try it then I would like to suggest Infinity free hosting service.It is free and best hosting service.
please show your blocks including a Do it result of that path
it might be a content uri?
if yes, the file extension offers the GetFileName method to get a filename from a content uri
