Features ¶
- It uses file system for storing the pastes
- Pastes are shared through the external program (HTTP, FTP, Gopher, ...)
- Paste files have an extension (.txt by default), that can
be overriden for the given paste. So your HTTP service can answer
with varying
Content-Types
. You can share images for example,
not only plaintext
- No excessive HTTP protocol: just send two
netstring-encoded strings
with the data over the TCP
- Newline is appended for .txt/.url pastes, if it is missing
- BLAKE3-256 checksum is sent back to you, for integrity checking
- Intended to be run as a UCSPI-TCP
service daemontools-like supervisor
- Can automatically generate HTML files with the links for automatic
asciicasts playback.
- You can clear an old ones with simple:
find pastes -ctime XXX -delete
