Pastebin services

See also Wikipedia:Pastebin.

Pastebin services are often used to quote text or images while collaborating and troubleshooting. Pastebin clients provide a convenient way to post from the command line.

Note: An acceptable pastebin service does not require enabling JavaScript for viewing, does not display adverts, manipulate the pasted content or require a login. pastebin.com is blocked for some people because of malware found on the site and has a history of annoying issues (requires JavaScript, displays adverts, inserts CRLF line-endings and displaying CAPTCHAs at random). Do not use it.

Without a dedicated client

Some services can be used with more general command line tool, such as cURL. For extensions, such as line numbers, one can use more command line tools. Such as cat -n.

  • 0x0.st is a file hosting service. Usage examples are:
command | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st 
or upload a file:
curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st < file
Note: Read the instructions on the website for further options such as file removal tokens, expiration, and private URLs.
  • ix.io Usage examples are:
command | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io 
or upload a file:
curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io < file
