spb - Simple PasteBin

What?

This is a simple pastebin made with node.js & a sqlite3 backend.

Note: The old mongodb codebase is in the mongodb branch.

Why ?

I needed my own pastebin for "research" ;)

How ?

• clone the repo
• take a look at config.js
• $ npm install
• Get sqlite database ready

  $ sqlite3 spb.db < sql/pastes.sql
  

• $ npm start
• pop open http://localhost:3030 on the browser

Can I see ?

Migration from mongodb to sqlite3

The initial version of spb was built to use mongodb for its database. This new version will be using sqlite.

If you have a good chunk of pastes that you wish to move over, here's what you do

• hop on the vm and take a mongodb dump like so

  $ mongoexport -d spb -c pastes --jsonArray -o pastes.json
  

  this create a pastes.json file which holds all of your old data.

• copy the pastes.json file into the extras folder and then run

  $ node extras/mongo_migrate.js
  

  You might see a warning like so which you can ignore.

  (node:10559) ExperimentalWarning: Importing JSON modules is an experimental feature and might change at any time
  (Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)
  

  Please make sure you setup the sqlite database before hand

  $ sqlite3 spb.db < sql/pastes.sql
