Use

After including into your project.json just use:

var shorturl = require('short-url-generator'),
    url      = 'https://username:passwd@www.bzz.co.uk:9000/new/session/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=twilio+sms&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gfe_rd=cr&ei=X2ChVuKzHe_H8geE5aOQDw#hashTagAtTheEnd';
    out      = shorturl(url);
    
console.log(out);

//     into JSON of key: value pairs.

//
//     Long story short the idea behind having MD5 
//     is that one you generate short URL for specific URL
//     and you persist it, you don't have to store it again 
//     and just reuse, since the landing URL
//     is going to be exactly the same
//
//     Also, implementation doesn't cater for domain and protocol 
//     of the short URL i.e. http://mydomain.com/4g4K2 in our case below
//     assuming you know what you downloaded it for.
// 
//     Same story with the "originator" - as I think you may want 
//     to populate this nested object with some
//     context specific data that outside your application 
//     would be largely irrelevant...
