-### Flask-Pastebin
+<!--
+ -- Filename: README.md
+ -- Startdate: 2022-02-11
+ -->
+# Overview
+This is my proposed solution to my pastebin problem.
-This is a fork of [mitsuhiko/pastebin](https://github.com/mitsuhiko/flask-pastebin)
+# Features
-#### How to use
+* Admin page which can list parents, children, and provide link to delete pastes.
+* Editable titles
+* "Reply to" pastes to make parent/children relationships
+* UUIDs instead of sequential integer ID numbers
+* Private pastes (accessible to admin, and to users with the whole link)
- 1. make a virtualenv
- 2. `pip install -r requirements.txt`
- 3. `cp config.cfg.tpl config.cfg`
- 4. `python manage.py initdb`
- 5. `python manage.py server`
+# Instructions
+
+Configure the application with `config.cfg` based on `config.cfg.example`.
+
+Generate new db.
+
+ python3 initdb.py
+
+Run server in development mode.
+
+ FLASK_APP=stackbin.py FLASK_DEBUG=True flask run --host='0.0.0.0'
+
+Run the server in a full wsgi environment for the cleanup timer to operate.
+
+ ./stackbin.bin
+
+# Improvements
+I still need to work on these tasks:
+
+## Development
+
+* Protect the /admin/ page
+
+## Release
+
+* Document centos7 dependencies
+* Deploy to prod
+
+# Alternatives
+This is a very diverged fork of [su27/flask-pastebin](https://github.com/su27/flask-pastebin) which itself was a fork of the original [mitsuhiko/pastebin](https://github.com/mitsuhiko/flask-pastebin). The original had a few additional features worth reviewing.

+## Unresearched

+
+## Attempted
+https://github.com/Tygs/0bin sounds cool but it uses a stack I'm unfamiliar with and it had some issues and I didn't want to bother with it.
