TPut

A trivial file upload service.

The use case I have in mind is as a replacement for Pastebin when developing for ComputerCraft. Just launch an instance of TPut and use the tp and tg commands instead of pastebin put and pastebin get.

No more annoying Pastebin codes.

No more Pastebin upload limits.

Just files.

Setup

You know the drill:

1. cabal sandbox init
2. cabal install --only-dependencies
3. cabal build

Then make an uploads directory and serve files from it.

1. mkdir data
2. cabal run data

The service listens on port 8080.

If you don't like this:

• then change the code to use a different port
• send a pull request with something to use environment variables
• find yet another Pastebin alternative; there are plenty enough as it is

Usage

These are the available endpoints.

• GET /files/<filename> retrieves the contents of filename or 404s.
• POST /files/<filename> creates or overwrites the contents of filename with the request body.
• GET /list retrieves a list of files stored on the server with one file name per line.

Servant will automatically deal with issues like malicious users injecting dots or slashes into the URL.

Ensure that the Content-Type header in your request is set to text/plain;charset=utf-8. Anything else will upset servant because I'm too lazy to make it more lenient. In particular HTTP 415 responses will be produced.
