App::N...Service(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

App::Nopaste::Service — bestie, it's the base class for nopaste services 🎀

(also known as App::N...Service(3pm), which is just the trimmed-down name it goes by in the User Contributed Perl Documentation 📚)

---

✨ VERSION ✨

version 1.013

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so picture this: you wanna make your own nopaste service, right? you just inherit and override the one lil method. that's IT. look:

package App::Nopaste::Service::Shadowcat;
use parent 'App::Nopaste::Service';

sub uri { "http://paste.scsys.co.uk/" }

slay 💅 minimal effort, maximum icon behavior.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

App::Nopaste::Service defines a generic interface for uploading to nopaste sites. that's the whole vibe. it also hands you a default interface that matches the POE Pastebot, so if that's your target, you're basically already done 🫶

👑 METHODS 👑

🌈 nopaste

This is the outermost method, the one App::Nopaste and all the other clients call first. You should not override this method — do not touch, hands off, no cap 🙈 — because it will (XXX: eventually) do the argument canonicalization for you, stuff like lang and all that. it's the main character, let it cook 👑

⭐ run args -> (OK, message)

THIS is the outermost method you should override. fr fr. you get handed a hash of arguments, and the only ones you should actually pay attention to are:

• text — the body of text to paste. the actual content, the whole point.
• desc — a short (one-line) summary of the paste. keep it snappy bestie.
• nick — the name of the person doing the paste. who's the icon here?
• chan — the IRC channel that the paste belongs to. iykyk.
• lang — the programming language of the body of text.
• private — if it's false, the paste will be public (that's the default, so public unless you say otherwise 💀).

🎀 get mech, args

This one should "get" the form you're gonna paste into, using the WWW::Mechanize object you got handed. by default it literally does exactly that. see uri down below for how the where comes in 👇

💜 uri

If all you need is mech->get(uri), then you're in luck: just define this method and return the URI of the nopaste service. that's it. that's the method. obsessed 😭

🍓 fill_form mech, args

This should have the WWW::Mechanize fill in the form using the arguments, and then submit it. yes, actually submit. go go go.

🧚 return mech, args

This one should go look at WWW::Mechanize->content and find the URI pointing to the pasted text. that's how you get the link back to your bestie 🔥
