NAME WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create - paste on www.pastebin.com without API keys WARNING!!! IMPORANT. Please read. You kinda, sorta, maybe shouldn't really use this module. Use WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::API instead. Pastebin.com switched to a key-based API (which is what "::API" version implements), and using this, keyless, module lets you paste only 10 pastes per day. The limit is higher with the WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::API module, so check it out. This module primarily exists for use with App::Nopaste. SYNOPSIS use WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create; my $bin = WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create->new; # all options as defaults my $paste_uri = $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste' ) or die $bin->error; # all options as custom (module's defaults are shown) my $paste_uri = $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', format => 'none', # no syntax highlights expiry => 'm', # expire after a month private => 1, # make the paste unlisted desc => '', # no "title/name" for the paste ) or die $bin->error; # object's ->paste_uri() method is overloaded to string interpolation: print "Your paste uri is $bin\n"; DESCRIPTION This module provides the means to paste on www.pastebin.com pastebin, without the need for API keys . See the WARNING!!! section above. METHODS "new" my $bin = WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create->new; Creates and returns a brand new WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create object. Does not take any arguments. "paste" my $paste_uri = $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste' ) or die $bin->error; $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', format => 'perl', # perl syntax highlights expiry => 'asap', # expire in 10 minutes private => 1, # make the paste unlisted desc => 'Some title', # "title/name" for the paste ) or die $bin->error; Pastes to the pastebin. On succcess returns the link to the newly-created paste (see also the overloaded "->paste_uri" method below). On failure returns "undef" or an empty list, depending on the context, and the human-readable error message will be available via the "->error" method. Takes arguments as key/value pairs. Argument "text" is mandatory, the rest are optional. Possible arguments are as follows: "text" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', ) or die $bin->error; Mandatory. Takes a string as a value that contains the text to paste. "private" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', private => 1, # make the paste unlisted ) or die $bin->error; Optional. This really should be named "unlisted", but for compatibility with old code is still named "private". Takes true or value as a value. If set to a true value, the paste will be "unlisted" (i.e. people will be able to access them if they have a link, but the paste will not be announced on the pastebin.com home page), otherwise the paste will be public and listed on the home page. To make private pastes, you need to be logged in; use WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::API if you need that feature. Defaults to: 1 (make pastes unlisted). "desc" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', desc => '', # no "title/name" for the paste ) or die $bin->error; Optional. Takes a string as a value that specifies the title/name for the paste. If this string is longer than 60 characters, it will be truncated and "..." will be appended to the end of it. By default is not specified. "expiry" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', expiry => 'm', # expire after a month ) or die $bin->error; Optional. Takes an expiry code as a value that specifies when the paste should expire. Defaults to: "m" (expire after a month). Valid expiry codes are as follows (there are multiple possible codes for each duration; they are equivalent): # Expire after 10 Minutes 10m m10 asap # Expire after 1 Hour h 1h # Expire after 1 Day d 1d soon # Expire after 1 Week w 1w awhile # Expire after 2 weeks 2w w2 # Expire after 1 Month 1m m m1 eventually # Never expire n never "format" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste', format => 'C++ (with QT extensions)', ) or die $bin->error; Optional. Takes a format code as a value that specifies the paste text format (what syntax highlights to use). Defaults to: "none" (no syntax highlights). Possible values are as follows; they are case-insensitive: None Bash C C# C++ CSS HTML HTML 5 Java JavaScript Lua None Objective C Perl PHP Python Rails 4CS 6502 ACME Cross Assembler 6502 Kick Assembler 6502 TASM/64TASS ABAP ActionScript ActionScript 3 Ada ALGOL 68 Apache Log AppleScript APT Sources ARM ASM (NASM) ASP Asymptote autoconf Autohotkey AutoIt Avisynth Awk BASCOM AVR Bash Basic4GL BibTeX Blitz Basic BNF BOO BrainFuck C C for Macs C Intermediate Language C# C++ C++ (with QT extensions) C: Loadrunner CAD DCL CAD Lisp CFDG ChaiScript Clojure Clone C Clone C++ CMake COBOL CoffeeScript ColdFusion CSS Cuesheet D DCL DCPU-16 DCS Delphi Delphi Prism (Oxygene) Diff DIV DOS DOT E ECMAScript Eiffel Email EPC Erlang F# Falcon FO Language Formula One Fortran FreeBasic FreeSWITCH GAMBAS Game Maker GDB Genero Genie GetText Go Groovy GwBasic Haskell Haxe HicEst HQ9 Plus HTML HTML 5 Icon IDL INI file Inno Script INTERCAL IO J Java Java 5 JavaScript jQuery "error" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste' ) or die $bin->error; If an error occurs during pasting, the "->paste" method will return an "undef" or an empty list, depending on the context, and the human-readable error message will be available via the "->error" method. "paste_uri" $bin->paste( text => 'Some text to paste' ) or die $bin->error; print "Your paste is at " . $bin->paste_uri . "\n"; print "Your paste is at $bin\n"; Takes no arguments. Will return the link to the newly-created paste, after a successful call to "->paste". This method is overloaded for string interpolation, meaning you can simply interpolate the "WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::Create" object in a string to insert the link to the paste. NOTE ON VERSION 0.004 AND EARLIER At version 0.004, this module was taken out the back and shot in the face, as the www.pastebin.com update completely broke it. As some code still relied on it, it was resurrected and forced to work, but large bits of module's API have changed. If for whatever reason you need the old, non-working, implementation, you can still access it on backpan and can install it using: cpan http://backpan.perl.org/authors/id/Z/ZO/ZOFFIX/WWW-Pastebin-PastebinCom-Create-0.004.tar.gz SEE ALSO WWW::Pastebin::PastebinCom::API, App::Nopaste AUTHOR Zoffix Znet, "" BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-www-pastebin-pastebincom-create at rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at .
