SocksBin

Command line pastebin for sharing files and command outputs.

How to use

Requirements

To use this, you'll need a tool called netcat. Try typing 'nc' or 'netcat' into the terminal, you probably have it already !

---

Client Side

• Self-Explanatory examples using the public server

echo "Hello World !" | nc magnum.wtf 6969

cat "script.sh" | nc magnum.wtf 6969

• In case you started the server on localhost

df | nc localhost 9999

---

You will receive a url to the text-only paste as a response to the above commands. e.g.

https://socksbin.magnum.wtf/33fdd867

This has a built-in Pygment-based beautifier. add "_color" to the end of the received url, to get a beautified paste.

https://socksbin.magnum.wtf/33fdd867_color

^{In case your text isn't beautified, include the shebang #! which is the first two bytes of an executable}

^{e.g. the first line should be #! /usr/bin/env python for proper python formatting}

Cool stuff

Make this much easier to use by adding an alias to your rc file. For example:

---

skb alias

Linux (Bash):

echo 'alias skb="nc magnum.wtf 6969"' >> .bashrc

macOS:

echo 'alias skb="nc magnum.wtf 9999"' >> .bash_profile

---

Copy output to clipboard

Linux (Bash):

echo 'alias tbc="netcat termbin.com 9999 | xclip -selection c"' >> .bashrc

echo less typing now! | tbc

macOS:

echo 'alias tbc="nc termbin.com 9999 | pbcopy"' >> .bash_profile

echo less typing now! | tbc

Remember to reload the shell with source ~/.bashrc or source ~/.bash_profile after adding any of provided above!
