Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

pastiche - An awfully simple pastebin.

Introduction

pastiche is a BSD licensed awful application providing a basic pastebin service. It has been named pastiche in honor of lisppaste where loads of ideas and the syntax highlighting (indirectly via the colorize egg has been borrowed).

Usage

After installation create and compile the following file:

(use awful pastiche)

(pastiche "/" "paste.db"
          awful-settings:
          (lambda (handler)
            (parameterize
                ((debug-file "/tmp/paste")
                 (page-css "http://wiki.call-cc.org/chicken.css")
                 (page-charset "UTF-8")
                 (page-doctype "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd\">"))
              (handler))))

load this then with awful

$ awful example-app.scm

Or compile it and load the compiled application:

$ csc -s awful-app.scm
$ awful example-app.so

This will run the pastebin service using call-cc.org's css look and feel on your host. Access http://localhost/ for your paste app.

Requirements

If you use captchas, the external program figlet must be installed. If you use audible-captchas, you winsert into searchable select * from pastes;ill need espeak in pastiche's PATH.

Caveat: If using the search feature with the bundled sql-de-lite db, you need to make sure that the SQLITE_ENABLE_FTS3_PARENTHESIS option is not set. Otherwise people searching for parenthesis make pastiche error out.

Documentation

pastiche

[procedure] (pastiche base-path db-file #!key (vandusen-port 22722) (vandusen-host "localhost") (base-url "http://paste.call-cc.org") (use-captcha? #t) (audible-captcha? #t) (num-captchas 500) (browsing-steps 15) force-vandusen-notification? (awful-settings (lambda (_) (_))))

Starts pastiche with base-path as the root URL and the sqlite database file db-file. If the database file does not exist, pastiche will create and initialize an empty database.

It supports sending the paste event to the chicken IRC bot vandusen. The message contains of the author, the title of the paste and the url to the paste on one line.
