Results page URL issues

Bug

What is the current behavior?

1. The url shortener is returning a 400 status code in CircleCI
2. Without the shortened url, the details page is returning a 413 error

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.
All I'm doing is running bundlewatch from CircleCI, everything seems to be working except for the detail page. Here's the output from CircleCI https://gist.github.com/a-axton/95f9eea5ce0d34bd12b8b78f56787683

What is the expected behavior?
Link should take me to a working details page, I think it might be from too many characters in the URL.

I can confirm having the same issue, I can verify that it's due to the generated URL string is too long, so firebase refuses to shorten it.

I could verify this by removing one bundle at a time and found a threshold when it happened. So basically a limitation in how many characters a GET request URL can handle. Not sure if this is solvable without changing logic in the bundlewatch-service. Will take a look.

Btw I came here from bundlesize, which unfortunately suffers the same limitation

It would be great to re-build bundlewatch to avoid this limitation. Some work was started in #28 by @francoiscampbell

Are there any workarounds for this? We have quite a number of chunks 😅

[danielstocks]

For anyone else looking at this. After a few months I came across https://bundle-analyzer.com and it works fine with Next.js and 40+ chunks for larger sites.

@danielstocks This is amazing, incredibly polished service. Thanks for sharing.

EDIT: Gonna eat my words, bundle-analyzer has deteriorated. There is no longer a maintainer and the web dashboard is down.

Thoughts on referencing bundle-analyzer's approach to store the report inside Github checks?
