rustypaste

A minimal, self-hosted file upload server and pastebin written in Rust. Upload files with a simple curl command and get back a shareable URL.

What You Can Do After Deployment

1. Upload files — use curl -F "[email protected]" -H "Authorization: <AUTH_TOKEN>" https://your-domain
2. Paste text — pipe text directly: echo "hello" | curl -F "file=@-" -H "Authorization: <AUTH_TOKEN>" https://your-domain
3. Shorten URLs — use the oneshot or URL endpoint for link shortening
4. Share content — every upload returns a unique URL for sharing
5. Configure limits — set file size limits, expiration times, and allowed MIME types
