Can you tell me where this is documented?
There :smile:
Yeah, the query string arguments need documentation; when I wrote the api spec, I was mostly looking at the route table, which doesn't include those.
sure you want to send the output to /dev/stderr when xsel is expecting input from the pipe
Yes, xsel is using the output from curl's -w
. The paste metadata is displayed on the terminal via stderr, while the paste url goes into the clipboard.
What does the
r=1
do?
Normal POST responses are code 200. r=1
makes it a code 302 (redirect). 300 responses are required for curl's redirect_url
to grab the location header (yet, location is provided all the time, even during non-300 responses).
Admittedly the single-character things make pb usage more obscure than it needs to be, but people wanted cute copy-paste things that fit into an 80-character terminal line.
pbx () { curl -sF "c=@${1:--}" -w "%{redirect_url}" 'https://ptpb.pw/?r=1' -o /dev/stderr | xsel -l /dev/null -b }
What does the 'r=1' do? Can you tell me where this is documented? Also, are you sure you want to send the output to /dev/stderr when
xsel
is expecting input from the pipe?Please direct me to a more appropriate (IRC?) support channel if this is not the place to ask.
Thanks!
