Hello!
I am excited to share GNUPaste! This is a really simple web app
similar to paste.lisp.org built with Guile. I have a linode running it
from git on GuixSD.
https://paste.freshbakedyams.com (Please use it!)
Source: https://github.com/kristoferbuffington/gnupaste.git
Currently the frontend uses twitter bootstrap + jquery and highlightjs
from a CDN. It really doesn't need all that boilerplate. It will
definitely change in the future. GNUPaste depends on guile-wiredtiger
and guile-fibers to compile.
Ultimately I want to be able to deploy with something like:
$ guix system disk-image gnupaste-system.scm
Then boot it up in a VPS.
I need to fix some issues with autotools before it can be installed with
make. My issue is creating a consistent test-env because configure
substitutes @localstatedir@ (root/gnupaste/config.scm.in) with a
path/to/wt that is not in the build tree. I'm planning to imitate
guix.git/build-aux/test-env in that regard.
Otherwise, I would really appreciate some feature suggestions,
especially if it involves using pubstrate!
Thanks!
Kris

thank you so much for this !
recently both paste.gnome and paste.lisp became unavailable and this little
thing of yours is usefful !
I made my first test paste
https://paste.freshbakedyams.com/paste/5A0RFWVR
I'd like to have a way to indicate that the text is scheme code so that it
could deal with strings and quoted blocs properly
I'm afraid this doesn't involve pubstate ;-)
But I'm not sure wat could be done involving pubstrate: maybe a button to
share my paste with my mastodon account ?
Anyway, thanks for you work !

Yikes. Yet another Javascript Hell, I thought.
No, it's not Javascript-the-language what I don't like, but
this blurring between Web page and full-fledged application,
unfurling at the user's browser while dynamically sucking up
bits and pieces of the Whole Internet, with ill-defined
licenses, provenances and *intentions*. That's why I always
browse with Javascript disabled and run away when a page
presents itself as a black (or white) hole.
Then... I went to try it. It actually falls back gracefully
for the non-Javascript folks!
So thanks for catering to us dinosaurs :-)
Note to self: always try before ranting...
Cheers&thanks again

great start, I like it.
What would be really good is if there could be an API similar to
what pb (example instance: https://ptpb.pw) has.
The power of pb lies in its features and its ability to be used
from the commandline. I can simply upload the output of a command
without saving it first to a textfile - I can simply pipe it to curl.
So pb is built using flask (https://github.com/ptpb/pb).
I'd like to see (and maybe even help when I have the time) a paste web app
written in Guile that can be compared to pb.
Long text, short nonsense: One of many features I'd welcome is the ability
to pipe and paste data to the paste server.
Another useful thing: Be able to delete pastes. I've asked one of the pb
developers a long time ago and they told me that pb just keeps collecting
and you have to manually delete content in the db (or something like that),
no ability to delete pastes for an admin was implemented.

Looks nice!
I suppose you could use ‘guile-syntax-highlight’ to add some color into
the mix. :-)

That’d be great.
Thanks for sharing!

Please reconsider the use of "GNU" in the program name, since this isn't
in any way affiliated with the GNU Project.
I did notice one of your commits is titled "Initial commit prepped for
being part of the GNU project". If you do wish to offer your software
to GNU, please see:
https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html
We'd be happy to review it.

Absolutely. I don't mean to mislead anyone with the name.

I will definitely submit it for evaluation soon. There is still some
work to be done before it's even ready to release.
Thanks,

I did not realize guile-syntax-highlight even existed. I will
investigate.
