A netcat and HTTP command line pastebin for sharing straight from your terminal.
I was able to find pastebin servers which supported publishing pastes over plain sockets (with nc) or
over HTTP(S) with curl, but not one that supported both!
There are some scenarios where all you have available is a shell, and being able to paste to a plain socket is surprisingly useful.
SYNOPSIS
<command> | nc etc.fstab.me 9999
<command> | curl --data-binary @- https://etc.fstab.me
EXAMPLES
~$ ls -l | curl --data-binary @- https://etc.fstab.me
https://etc.fstab.me/abcd
~$ ls -l | nc etc.fstab.me 9999
https://etc.fstab.me/efgh
USAGE:
gestetner -l '[::]:9999' -w '[::]:8080' -p /tmp/gst -u http://localhost:8080
FLAGS:
-h, --help Prints help information
OPTIONS:
-u URL Set the base URL to be returned in paste responses
-l HOST:PORT Set the listening socket address for incoming pastes
-p PATH Set the filesystem path in which to store pastes
-w HOST:PORT Set the listening socket for the HTTP server
-n LENGTH Set the length of the random paste slug (default: 4)
-m MAX_SIZE Set the maximum size of a paste in bytes (default: 512KiB)
-r RATE Maximum number of pastes per minute from a single IP (default: 5)
--capacity SIZE Set the maximum size of the paste directory (default: 100MiB)
Gestetner has built-in rate limiting, a paste size limiter, and will remove the oldest pastes in order to keep its disk
usage below the value you supply for capacity.
