More ideas

[valerak]

Perfect source, thanks, sametmax and Natim also ;)

More ideas:

1. Add comments, like in ZeroBin was
2. Add language support, e.g. ENG, FR, DE
   detect with help of user_agent for example

Hi man,

I didn't get the first point.

For the second point. Why not. The tool is not really complicated thought, so the added value may not be hight capared to the work required to setup a decent i18n architecture (remember it runs on bottle).

[Natim]

If we can remove the python backend and use a single HTML template file or even JST, it could be really easy to create fr.html en.html and de.html with the specific JST translated.

We could also use a javascript dictionnary to handle the translation.

[sametmax]

Bottle already comes with a template language and using only python is
what make 0bin so easy to deploy (nothing to install on mac or linux,
just unzip and run the embeded server). Ease of use is really important.

We can add translation on bottle (we do have to do it be hand I
beleive). My question is more about "is it worth it" ? Cause it's not a
complicated software, I can't imagine how 3 buttons in english would
prevent somebody interested in 0bin from using it.

I may be wrong, and if more people tell me we should translate it, then
it should be done.

We could also switch from jQuery to http://angularjs.com/. It will make
tu application more fluid, will turn the Python code into a pure JSON
backend and provides i18n facilities. And if we make a server pluggable
server backend, then your idea of using an external service to store
the data will be as easy as switching the backend.

I will require a lot of work though. I'm not ready to do this right now.

#23 (comment).

[ArthurHoaro]

I think that his first point was to add comments (discussion), just like in ZeroBin (PHP).

Is this a planned feature ?

[Natim]

I think we could implement this with DisqUs. Do you mind doing a PR @ArthurHoaro ?
http://disqus.com/

[ArthurHoaro]

Nope, I was just asking. I barely know Python actually. :)
But I won't use Disqus, nor Facebook/G+ comments. I like to own my data.

[Natim]

Ok so we should implement everything inside even the url shortener.

[sametmax]

Actually we can't implement the URL shortener because it would mean that we detail the key on the server, which is precisely what we want to avoid. Remember: 0bin first goal is to protect the host, not the user.

As for comments, this was a planned feature but we decided not to implement it: we though we woudn't use such a feature. However, if somebody comes with a PR for this, I'm ok with it.

We could make the comments this way :

• javascript only
• paginated using javascript
• pluggable (so one may use disqu he he wants to spare his server, we should be able to encrypt / decrypt these on the fly)

What do you think ?

[Natim]

So basically you would like a comment to be a paste linked to the first one and encrypted with the same key?

[sametmax]

No it should be stored in the same file (if we use the local backend and not discuss) and have some different properties that a paste : no coloration, a generated avar with hashviz on the IP and auto linking of the URL. But yes, it should be encrypted with the same key, otherwise there is no point.

[Natim]

Ok understood.
Could you rename the ticket please?

[sametmax]

I'll open a new one.
