macOS Finder Quick Action

[tessus]

Description

For people who want to use rustypaste from Finder on macOS, here is an automator workflow that makes this possible.

• Open Automator -> New -> Quick Action
• Workflow receives current: files or folders
• in: any application
• Image: Share
• Add Action: Run Shell Script
• Choose Shell: /bin/bash
• Paste this file into the shell script text field
• Save as "Upload to rustypaste"

There are 3 settings that you might want to change (close to the top of the file):

TITLE="Upload to rustypaste"
RP_CFG=${HOME}/.config/rustypaste/config.toml
DFT_EXPIRY=7d

The title is used for the upload window and notifications.
The rustypaste config file (from the rpaste cli app) is needed to retrieve the server address and the token. (One could also add those directly to the script, but I haven't done that, since I mostly use the cli tool anyway.)
You can also set a default expiry for files, which will be prefilled in the upload window.
