stikkit

command line tool to upload paste to stikked based pastebins

Features

• Super easy to use
• Remembers stikked URL
• Automatically url encodes all data
• Automatically figure out author name if not provided explicitly

Installing on debian or ubuntu

Just add ppa:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:benapetr/misc
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install stikkit

That's all

Building on linux

Checkout this repository

cd stikkit
cmake .
make
make install

NOTE: you need to have libcurl-dev installed in your system

Usage

stikkit -b url
# now type text and hit ctrl+d to exit
cat file | stikkit -b url
echo "Hello world" | stikkit

url is an url to stikked server for example, if your server is http://something.blah/stikked and your api is http://something.blah/stikked/api then use http://something.blah/stikked as parameter to -b

The url parameter can be stored to configuration file (stikkit will ask you in case there is none in config file)

Configuration

The default configuration pulls the URL from /etc/stikkit/url - however, the better approach is to create your own config directory. The stikkit software will look for ".stikkit" in your home directory.

Within this directory, there are a few key files worth creating.

• url - Contains your base installation URL for stikked
• apikey - If your stikked installation requires an API key, save it in here
• expiry - The default expiry time (in minutes) for a paste, if needed
• author - The default author name if you wish to use one

Tips

Do you have a server and want to setup default pastebin site for all users in system?

Create /etc/stikkit/url which contains the url of default pastebin site. Users will be able to override it, but by default everyone on system will use this
