A CLI for Hpaste.org.
Pastepipe reads from stdin, posting to hpaste, and prints out the resulting url (the last line of output). Parameters control various hpaste form fields:
$ pastepipe --help
PastePipe v1.4, (C) Rogan Creswick 2009--2012
pastepipe [FLAG]
-? --help[=FORMAT] Show usage information (optional format)
-V --version Show version information
-v --verbose Higher verbosity
-q --quiet Lower verbosity
-u --user=USER Your user name (default=rogue)
-l --language=LANGUAGE The language used for syntax highlighting (default=haskell)
-t --title=TITLE The title of the snippet
--uri=URL The URI of the hpaste instance to post to (default=http://hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/)
--test Prevents PastePipe from actually posting content, just echos the configuration and input
It will auto-detect your local username, but -u overrides this detection.
Parameters can come in any order, but only the first of duplicate entries will be used. So, if you have an alias to send to a local hpaste uri, then that alias should effectively disable the --uri switch. It is not possible to "disable" the --test or --help switches in this way, so you can always add --test to a command line to disable the actual sending of content.
Installation
PastePipe is available on hackage (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/PastePipe) , so you can cabal install it, if you have a working cabal-install.
