Shell REST Store

A small script to quickly save files or snippets or whatever by piping them to a command which uses a rest interface to perform the operation.

It depends on curl, and the REST remote is implemented in PHP and you get it here.

You can use it like this:

$ newtmp something
3e3a84fc805d808b0803a4a0012e711bb1612a44

You get the sha1 for the tmpid you just created. ``zsh $ echo This is something | savetmp something mymetainfo/nothing

The savetmp will not output anything unless you pipe it into another command
```zsh
$ gettmp savetmp
This is something

gettmp just gets you the raw data, gettmpjson will repack the content into a json object

$ gettmp something/meta 
{"written":{"date":"Mon, 13 Jul 2015 19:51:07 +0200","info":{"useragent":"curl\/7.37.1","remote":"18.233.121.21"},"length":18,"accessedvia":"something","meta":{"from":"matthias@matthias-mbp","mymetainfo":"nothing"}}}

or better use with jq to get a formatted output

You can also append or prepend:

$ echo Starting: | prependtmp something
$ echo End | appendtmp something

Or upload a file

$ newtmp afile

$ savetmpfile myfile
