Shutter Upload Plugin for CloudApp

Shutter is an awesome screenshot tool for Linux. CloudApp is an awesome screenshot sharing tool, but it lacks a Linux client. This plugin tries to solve that problem.

Installation

Check if you have the following dependencies:

perl-tie-ixhash
perl-lwp-protocol-https

Download CloudApp.pm and move it to the Shutter upload plugins directory, and make it executable. On Ubuntu, that's:

cd /usr/share/shutter/resources/system/upload_plugins/upload
sudo mv ~/Downloads/CloudApp.pm .
sudo chown root:root CloudApp.pm
sudo chmod a+x CloudApp.pm

Restart Shutter. You can force plugin reinitialization by clearing the cache, like so:

shutter --clear_cache

Enter your CloudApp username/password in Edit->Preferences->Upload->CloudApp:

Shutter plugin preferences

Usage

Take a Shutter screenshot as usual, and click export.

Shutter export to CloudApp

Wait for the image to upload, and copy the public URL.

That's it. Enjoy.
