Nice concept. It won’t be long before bash snippets become Mr Robot’s toolbox. Il look into this after my exams (7th December )

[navanchauhan]

I might be able to make a concept soon though

[alexanderepstein]

Would make sense to integrate this into the transfer component as it already does file sharing. An option like -o for one time would make sense. The idea being transfer fileToTransfer would use transfer.sh while transfer -o fileToTransfer would use ki.tc

Heads up...an update

## [0.3.4] - 2017-12-01
###/file , [+]/otf
[+]  Increased upload limit to 100mb
[+]  Sha256 checksum
[+]  Web app at ki.tc/otf
[+]  Malformed url in api response and web app - used for sharing via services that request header info as you share
[+]  Increased path to length=7
[+]  Implemented chunk based file upload method for larger files; testing showed a slight advantage of previous technique  

[Logic-gate]

An update...final one.

curl -F 'file=@Screenshot_20160729_014.png' http://ki.tc/file/u/
{
  "file": {
    "_id": "loosening.seismograph.selected", 
    "file": [
      "File Name: Screenshot_20160729_014.png", 
      "Content Type: image/png"
    ], 
    "link": "http://ki.tc/file/loosening.seismograph.selected", 
    "malformed": "http ://ki.tc/file/loosening.seismograph.selected", 
    "sha256": "98ad20a92f29c8b0e815f266c661975cfc11375e7d92a3b55bf13f78057736cc", 
    "time": "Sat, 09 Dec 2017 10:46:28 GMT"
  }
}

Opted for random readable end paths; rationale: easier to read > easier to memorize > easier to verbally share.

How it works:

Generate random longitude and latitude, pass it to what3words api > get the 3 words.

[alexanderepstein]

Sorry this is taking longer than I wanted, I will have this done over the next 3 days or so

[Logic-gate]

Sure...

Check the documentation here http://ki.tc/otf/documentation the path is not set, also...it would be prudent to add local encryption prior to transmission. I can vouch for my service--records are terminated once accessed, but since it lacks ssl, I cant vouch for adequate transmission.

[alexanderepstein]

I am first going just get the one time file sharing working afterwards I will add encryption before upload and decryption upon download
