# Haste
|
||
|
||
Haste is an open-source pastebin software written in node.js, which is easily installable in any network. It can be backed by either redis or filesystem, and has a very easy adapter interface for other stores. A publicly available version can be found at [hastebin.com](http://hastebin.com)
|
||
|
||
Major design objectives:
|
||
|
||
* Be really pretty
|
||
* Be really simple
|
||
* Be easy to set up and use
|
||
|
||
Haste works really well with a little utility called haste-client, allowing you to do things like:
|
||
|
||
`cat something | haste`
|
||
|
||
which will output a URL to share containing the contents of `cat something`'s STDOUT
|
||
|
||
## Tested Browsers
|
||
|
||
* Firefox 8
|
||
* Chrome 17
|
||
* Safari 5.3
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
1. Download the package, and expand it
|
||
2. Explore the settings inside of config.js, but the defaults should be good
|
||
3. `npm install`
|
||
4. `npm start`
|
||
|
||
## Settings
|
||
|
||
* `host` - the host the server runs on (default localhost)
|
||
* `port` - the port the server runs on (default 7777)
|
||
* `keyLength` - the length of the keys to user (default 10)
|
||
* `maxLength` - maximum length of a paste (default none)
|
||
* `staticMaxAge` - max age for static assets (86400)
|
||
* `recompressStatisAssets` - whether or not to compile static js assets (true)
|
||
* `documents` - static documents to serve (ex: http://hastebin.com/about.com) in addition to static assets. These will never expire.
|
||
* `storage` - storage options (see below)
|
||
* `logging` - logging preferences
|
||
|
||
## Storage
|
||
|
||
### File
|
||
|
||
To use file storage (the default) change the storage section in `config.js` to something like:
|
||
|
||
``` json
|
||
{
|
||
"path": "./data",
|
||
"type": "file"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Where `path` represents where you want the files stored
|
||
|
||
### Redis
|
||
|
||
To use redis storage you must install the redis package in npm globall using
|
||
|
||
`npm install redis --global`
|
||
|
||
Once you've done that, your config section should look like:
|
||
|
||
``` json
|
||
{
|
||
"type": "redis",
|
||
"host": "localhost",
|
||
"port": 6379,
|
||
"db": 2
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can also set an `expire` option to the number of seconds to expire keys in. This is off by default, but will constantly kick back expirations on each view or post.
|
||
|
||
All of which are optional except `type` with very logical default values.
