# Overview This is my proposed solution to my pastebin problem. # Features * 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) * Reverse-proxy autoconfiguration by visiting /set # Using stackbin ## Installing You can use flask for development servers, and uwsgi for production. For a production stack on CentOS 7: yum install nginx uwsgi uwsgi-logger-file python36-flask uwsgi-plugin-python36 python36-sqlalchemy python36-uwsgidecorators pip3 install --user flask-sqlalchemy pytimeparse ## Instructions Configure the application with these two files, based on the `.example` files available in the source code: * stackbin.conf * stackbin.wsgi.ini 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 If you use stackbin behind a reverse-proxy such as nginx with example file `stackbin.conf.nginx`, then you can have it autodetect the correct top-level path by visiting path: /set This means that if your app is behind `http://example.com/stackbin/` then you would just visit once page: http://example.com/stackbin/set # Improvements I still need to work on these tasks: ## Development * Protect the /admin/ page ## Release * 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 https://github.com/yasoob/logit-bin https://github.com/AWilliams17/PasteMate https://github.com/bsamadi/flask-pastebin ## 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.
