jasonc/docker-pastebin repository overview

⁠docker-pastebin

A dev oriented pastebin like container for sharing code and text. A lot more usefull though, thanking John Crepezzi Paste your stuff however :)

⁠Quickstart

⁠Run

docker run --name pastebin -p 80:80 jasonc/docker-pastebin

⁠Compose

pastebin:
  image: jasonc/docker-pastebin

⁠Settings

⁠Overview

• host - the host the server runs on (default localhost)
• port - the port the server runs on (default 7777)
• keyLength - the length of the keys to user (default 10)
• maxLength - maximum length of a paste (default none)
• staticMaxAge - max age for static assets (86400)
• recompressStatisAssets - whether or not to compile static js assets (true)
• documents - static documents to serve (ex: http://hastebin.com/about.com⁠) in addition to static assets. These will never expire.
• storage - storage options (see below)
• logging - logging preferences
• keyGenerator - key generator options (see below)

⁠Details

For easy use the details are almost equal to the originals. You can find original configuration documentation at John's github page⁠

⁠Key Generation

⁠Phonetic

Attempts to generate phonetic keys, similar to pwgen

{
  "type": "phonetic"
}

⁠Random

Generates a random key

{
  "type": "random",
  "keyspace": "abcdef"
}

The optional keySpace argument is a string of acceptable characters for the key.

⁠Storage

⁠File

To use file storage (the default) change the storage section in config.js to something like:

{
  "path": "./data",
  "type": "file"
}

Where path represents where you want the files stored

⁠Redis

To use redis storage you must install the redis package in npm

npm install redis

Once you've done that, your config section should look like:

{
  "type": "redis",
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 6379,
  "db": 2
}

You can also set an expire option to the number of seconds to expire keys in. This is off by default, but will constantly kick back expirations on each view or post.

All of which are optional except type with very logical default values.

⁠Memcached

To use memcached storage you must install the memcache package via npm

npm install memcache

Once you've done that, your config section should look like:

{
  "type": "memcached",
  "host": "127.0.0.1",
  "port": 11211
}

You can also set an expire option to the number of seconds to expire keys in. This behaves just like the redis expirations, but does not push expirations forward on GETs.

All of which are optional except type with very logical default values.

⁠Clients

⁠Web

After starting the container you can navigate to 'targethost:targetport' and start using the bin via your browser.

⁠Linux & OSX (ruby)

⁠Install

Usually ruby is provided by OSX basic installation.

If your Linux Distro doesn't have ruby, you may want to install it. You should include the dev variant, as several games depend on them e.g.

⁠Ubuntu/Debian

apt-get install ruby-dev

⁠RHEL/CentOS

yum install ruby-dev

⁠Client Install

After you ensure to have ruby installed use the following instruction.

gem install haste

⁠Usage

⁠Add Content

cat file | haste

⁠Read content

haste file

⁠Non-Ruby install

For those who don't like great ruby stuff - you may use following script as an alternative.

haste() { a=$(cat); curl -X POST -s -d "$a" http://hastebin.com/documents | awk -F '"' '{print "http://hastebin.com/"$4}'; }
