wgetpaste -u ERROR [SOLVED]

NuSkool · 2017-03-19 21:55:07

Installed wgetpaste and trying it out. I can't get the -u option to work.
Tried changing services, same result. Am I possibly missing something?
I can manually apply tinyurl and it works. https://tinyurl.com/l3bqte7
I like the reply function in paste.pound-python.org, but not so much the long URL.

-u, --tinyurl URL convert input url to tinyurl

$ wgetpaste /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Re-read the helptext.

-u, --tinyurl URL convert input url to tinyurl

Thanks WorMzy,

And sorry but now I'm more confused. Could you give an example of using the -u option?

I did look at the wgetpaste script in /usr/bin. Something doesn't look right on line 41, but my bash skills are admittedly "just enough to be dangerous".

WorMzy · 2017-03-20 01:23:09

It wants a url, not a file path. e.g. pass the url you recieved from the first run:

wgetpaste -u https://paste.pound-python.org/show/sN99mBrUmlG5a4TQDKTL/

Ahh, you mean it works just like it says? (feeling pretty dense right now)

My main use case for using wgetpaste would be from the console. I don't copy paste there, so the -u option isn't saving me any typing. I came up with an ugly hack that gives me what I thought the -u option would. Not sure if or how the following 2 additional lines may break stuff in the script, but it's working for me so far.

I put this just before the "exit 0" line.

wget -qO - http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url="$URL" > /tmp/url
echo "And or for a shorter URL here:" $(cat /tmp/url)

And the results:

$ wgetpaste /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Your paste can be seen here: https://paste.pound-python.org/show/CJyVU2kRfGwQZyOWnOLx/
And or for a shorter URL here: http://tinyurl.com/k2d87k9

EDIT
To make it to work with the -r option [show url for the raw paste (no syntax highlighting or html)] used this in place of the above edits:

# add url converted to tinyurl 
if [[ $RAW ]] && converttoraw; then
        echo "And for tinyurl converted raw URL here:" $(wget -qO - http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url="$RAWURL")
else
        echo "And for tinyurl converted URL here:" $(wget -qO - http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url="$URL")
fi
