Paste69

Paste69 is a pastebin service built with SvelteKit. It's a simple, fast, and easy to use pastebin service based on HasteBin. Like HasteBin, it's also open source and can be found over on GitHub.

Code highlighting is handled with the help of highlight.js. So if you have any issues with language detection or missing languages, take it up with them. Available languages (with their extensions) are as follows: Show Languages

Usage

To create a paste, go home or click the "New" button ( ) in the tool box in the bottom right corner of the page. Paste whatever text you want into the editor, and click the "Save" button ( ) to create the paste.

To copy an existing paste, click the "Copy" button ( ) in the tool box in the bottom right corner of the page. This will start a new paste with the contents of the existing paste.

CLI Script

To make it easier to create pastes, a CLI script is available. The script can be found here. To use the script:

curl -O https://0x45.st/paste69.sh && chmod +x paste69.sh
./paste69.sh --help

API

Paste69 has a simple API for creating and fetching pastes. The API accepts JSON, form data, and plain text with query parameters. The API will respond with JSON or plain text, depenant on the state of the `raw` parameter.

Creating a Paste

To create a paste, send a POST request to /api/pastes. Valid parameters are as follows:

• contents - The contents of the paste.
• language - The language of the paste. This is used for syntax highlighting. If no language is specified, the API will attempt to detect the language.
• password - A password to encrypt the paste with. This will enable encryption.
• burnAfterReading - A boolean value to enable burn after reading. If this is set to true, the paste will be deleted after it is viewed once.

Examples

		
JSON Request
		
			$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"contents": "paste contents"}' https://0x45.st/api/pastes
		
	

		
Form Request
		
			$ curl -X POST -F "contents=paste contents" https://0x45.st/api/pastes

			# or, with a file

			$ curl -X POST -F "contents=@file-name.txt" https://0x45.st/api/pastes
		
	

		
Plaintext Request
		
			$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: text/plain" -d "paste contents" https://0x45.st/api/pastes
		
	

If the paste was successfully created, the API will respond with the following JSON:

{
	"id": "paste id",
	"url": "https://0x45.st/some-random-id.md",
	"contents": "paste contents",
	"highlight": "txt",
	"encrypted": false,
	"burnAfterReading": false,
	"created_at": "2021-08-05T07:30:00.000Z",
}

Fetching a Paste

To fetch a paste, send a GET request to /api/pastes/:id. If the paste exists, the API will respond with the following JSON:

{
	"id": "paste id",
	"url": "https://0x45.st/some-random-id.md",
	"contents": "paste contents",
	"highlight": "txt",
	"encrypted": false,
	"burnAfterReading": false,
	"created_at": "2021-08-05T07:30:00.000Z",
}
