termpad allows you to easily host a pastebin server for saving and viewing text right from the terminal, or the browser.
Assuming termpad is running in localhost:8000 you can do this to save text using cURL:
shell
$ curl -d "Hello world" localhost:8000
http://localhost/DullMagnificentLock
$ # Or
$ curl --data-binary @path/to/file localhost:8000
http://localhost/BrightAliveMotorcycle
And this to retrieve saved text:
shell
$ curl localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht
$ # You might optionally want to pipe the output to a pager like less
$ curl localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht | less
Or this for HTTPie:
shell
$ echo "Hello World" | http POST localhost:8000
http://localhost/DullMagnificentLock
$ # Or for files:
$ http POST localhost:8000 < path/to/file
http://localhost/BrightAliveMotorcycle
And to get text it's the same as cURL:
```shell
$ http localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht
$ http localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht | less ```
Note the /raw/
in the url, without it you will get html output
-d
or --domain
, env = DOMAIN
)Used to construct the url returned to the user. http
is added as a prefix (Default: localhost
)
shell
$ termpad -d example.com
This will return urls like: http://example.com/BrightAliveMotorcycle
-p
or --port
)Set the port on which the app runs (Default: 8000
)
shell
$ termpad -p 8043
-o
or --output
)Relative or absolute path to the directory where you want to store user-posted pastes (Default: ~/.local/share/termpad/
)
shell
$ termpad -o /home/www/pastes/
--https
, env = HTTPS
)If set, urls will start with https
instead of http
shell
$ termpad --https
shell
$ git clone https://github.com/SpyrosRoum/termpad.git
$ cd termpad
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/termpad
shell
$ cargo install termpad
Either wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SpyrosRoum/termpad/master/docker-compose.yml
or copy the following into docker-compose.yml
```
version: "3.4"
services: app: image: spyrosr/termpad ports: - 8000:8000 environment: - DOMAIN_NAME=example.com - HTTPS=true volumes: - data:$HOME/.local/share/termpad/ restart: always
volumes:
data:
name: termpad
``
and then
docker-compose up -d`
