Overview

termpad

termpad allows you to easily host a pastebin server for saving and viewing text right from the terminal, or the browser.

Client Usage

Assuming termpad is running in localhost:8000 you can do this to save text using cURL:

$ 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:

$ 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:

$ 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:

$ http localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht
# Or with a pager
$ http localhost:8000/raw/TenderCheerfulYacht | less

Note the /raw/ in the url, without it you will get html output

Server Usage

Note that environment variables are checked before assigning the default value.

Domain (-d or --domain, env = DOMAIN)

Used to construct the url returned to the user. http is added as a prefix (Default: localhost)

$ termpad -d example.com

This will return urls like: http://example.com/BrightAliveMotorcycle

Port (-p or --port)

Set the port on which the app runs (Default: 8000)

$ termpad -p 8043

Output (-o or --output)

Relative or absolute path to the directory where you want to store user-posted pastes (Default: ~/.local/share/termpad/)

$ termpad -o /home/www/pastes/

https (--https, env = HTTPS)

If set, urls will start with https instead of http

$ termpad --https

Delete files (--delete-after, env = DELETE_AFTER)

How many days to keep files for. If set to 0 it will keep them forever (Default: 120)

$ termpad --delete-after 60

Install

From source:

$ git clone https://github.com/SpyrosRoum/termpad.git
$ cd termpad
$ cargo build --release
$ ./target/release/termpad

From cargo:

$ cargo install termpad

With docker-compose:

Either wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SpyrosRoum/termpad/master/docker-compose.yml or copy the following into docker-compose.yml

services:
  app:
    image: spyrosr/termpad
    ports:
      - 8000:8000
    environment:
      - DOMAIN_NAME=example.com
      - HTTPS=true
    volumes:

    [Feature] Add way to comprese the text

    Text is already very light but it can get a lot lighter when compressed. It might be worth adding the ability to keep compressed text if the performance hit is not big

    I am thinking a feature flag (similar to web) would be nice so we don't force people to build dependencies and features they don't use.

    In case we do this I think --output should point to the compressed file in which text will be appended

    [Feature] Add support for getting port numbers as arguments instead of hard coding them

    I'm not sure if this should happen. Pro: - More customizable and power to the user Cons: - You have to know the port for each self hosted server if you want to use it (Is this really an issue though?) - If a client is written one day, you will have to set the ports to be used somehow (arguments/config file/env variables)

  • Version 2.0

    Version 2.0

    Whole project was re-written in axum; the api remains the same, the executable doesn't take command line arguments anymore but it uses env variables entirely

    ToDo

    • [ ] Update README
    • [ ] Introduce tests This will need a change in the structure of the project to accommodate easy testing
    • [ ] Swap log for tracing
      • [ ] Improve the number and the quality of the logs
      • [ ] Use TraceLayer from `tower-http
    • [X] Settle on a way to configure the app. With #9 I made all of configuration to happen with env variables exclusively but maybe a file would be good? I don't think I will bring back the old cli configuration Update: env variables are enough.
