pastebucket

A pastebin like web application. Useful for pasting text into a form to store. Syntax highlighting is selected via a dropdown menu and is applied server side. No javascript to load, just some CSS.

Curl may be used to submit text, but there is no option at this time to specify the language (for syntax highlighting) via curl:

cargo check | curl -T- https://p.rascul.xyz
curl -T- https://p.rascul.xyz < src/main.rs

The git repo is located at https://gitlab.com/rascul/pasteb. There is an instance running at https://p.rascul.xyz.

pastebucket is written in rust and uses the gotham web application framework.

A sample systemd service file is included in the git repo.
