Stanislav N. aka pztrn c926a58276 Private pastes, systemd unit file, design updates.
It is now possible to create private pastes, just check approriate
checkbox.

Added systemd unit file. Don't forget to fix it for your needs!

Updated design for pastes viewing, now paste information shows in
table. Improves mobile experience at least :).

Fast Pastebin

Easy-to-use-and-install pastebin software written in Go. No bells or whistles, no websockets and even NO JAVASCRIPT!(*)

(*) Except fontawesome, because it's awesome :).

Current functionality.

  • Paste text.
  • View pastes.
  • Syntax highlighting.

Caveats.

Installation and updating

Just issue:

go get -u -v github.com/pztrn/fastpastebin/cmd/fastpastebin

This command can be used to update Fast Paste Bin.

Configuration.

Take a look at example configuration file which contains all supported options and their descriptions.

Configuration file position is irrelevant, there is no hardcoded paths where Fast Paste Bin looking for it's configuration. Use -config CLI parameter or FASTPASTEBIN_CONFIG environment variable to specify path.

Developing

Developers should install https://github.com/UnnoTed/fileb0x/ which is used as replacement to go-bindata for embedding assets into binary. After changing assets they should be recompiled into Go code. At repository root execute this command and you'll be fine:

fileb0x fileb0x.yml

Also if you're changed list of assets (by creating or deleting them) be sure to fix files list in fileb0x.yml file!

The rest is default - use linters, formatters, etc. VSCode with Go plugin is recommended for developing as it will perform most of linting-formatting actions automagically. Try to follow https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments with few exceptions:

ToDo

This is a ToDo list which isn't sorted by any parameter at all. Just a list of tasks you can help with.

  • Pastes expiration. It saves time to database but isn't blocking access.
  • User CP.
  • Files uploading.
  • Passwords for pastes and files.
  • Pastes forking and revisioning (like git or github gists).
  • Possibility to copy-paste-edit WISYWIG content.
  • CLI client for pastes and files uploading.
