A simple pastebin for light values (max 64KB) using OpenDHT distributed hash table.

## NAME

**dpaste** - A simple pastebin for light values (max 64KB) using OpenDHT distributed hash table.

## SYNOPSIS

**dpaste -h**

**dpaste -v**

**dpaste \[*options*...\]**

**dpaste -g *code* \[*options*...\]**

## DESCRIPTION

By default, **dpaste** will read its standard input for a file to paste on OpenDHT.  For fetching a file, you have to provide the *code* associated to it using the flag **-g**.

## OPTIONS

- **-h**

  Prints some help.

- **-v**

  Shows the version of the program.

- **-g** *code*, **--get** *code*

  Specifies the code *code* used to recover the file on the DHT.

- **--aes-encrypt**

  Use AES scheme for encryption. Password is automatically saved in the returned code ("dpaste:XXXXXX").

- **--gpg-encrypt**

  Use GPG scheme for encryption.

- **-r** *recipient*, **--recipients** *recipient*

  Specify the list of recipients to use for GPG encryption (--gpg--encrypt). Use **-r** multiple times to specify a list of recipients.

- **-s**, **--sign**

  Tells wether message should be signed using the user's GPG key. The key has to be configured through the configuration file (**$XDG\_CONFIG\_DIR/dpaste.conf**, keyword: **pgp\_key\_id**).

- **--no-decrypt**

  Tells dpaste not to decrypt PGP data and rather output it on stdout.

- **--self-recipient**

  Include self as recipient. Self refers to the key id configured for signing (see --sign description). This only takes effect if option **-e** is also used.

## RETURN CODE

The program returns 0 on success. Otherwise 1 is returned.

## FILES

- **$XDG\_CONFIG\_DIR/dpaste.conf**

  Main configuration file where. **dpaste** will look for this file to recover complementary information.
