From a key or link.

This will require webscraping.

For example: http://pastebin.com/NbcBNDwH. Can get:

• username
• date uploaded
• views
• expiration
• format?

See http://pastebin.com/sessions

Note that this requires the user to be logged in ON THE SITE, not in PastebinGTK.

Selecting the Login menu item will still show the dialog to log in even when already successfully logged in.

This also results in a bug where the interface does not reflect the current state:

1. log in successfully
2. select Login menu item
3. click Skip
4. the previous step logs you out (why? make it so it doesn't), but the status bar still says you're logged in

Move things out of global, etc

The file for working with command line arguments needs to be transitioned to python-pastebin.

They would require lots of work to get them up to feature parity with the main application, as they have not been updated in quite a while. In addition, they don't fit within the scope of the application. (There are already command line pastebin clients, and this application is supposed to be a graphical desktop client.)

Get Paste should be able to take links as well as paste keys. If a link is given, detect it and parse out the key.

Now possible, but only if logged in and is user's own paste: http://pastebin.com/api#13

Seems to be an issue with PastebinPython:

adam@mr-smith:~/Documents/Programming/PastebinGTK$ python pastebingtk.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "pastebingtk.py", line 228, in <lambda>
    ("list_trending_pastes", None, "List _Trending Pastes...", "<Control>t", None, lambda x: self.list_pastes(source = "trending")),
  File "pastebingtk.py", line 565, in list_pastes
    pastes = self.api.listTrendingPastes()

All files could use a bit of a code cleanup, mostly with the structuring as well as overuse of comments and blank space.

When uploading a paste as a logged-in user, pastes with the exposure set to Public will still be uploaded as Unlisted. Strangely, this behavior does not occur with anonymous uploading.

TODO: test what setting to Private does.

In the paste creation dialog, if the user isn't logged in they shouldn't be allowed to create a private paste, as pastebin.com only allows logged-in users to create private pastes.

Instead of using a dialog, create a toolbar on the main UI for the login fields.

• Two textentries: "Username", "Password"
• Two buttons: "Login", "Logout"
  • "Logout" should be disabled unless the user is currently logged in

Put this toolbar below the main editing textbox.

• After the transition to python-pastebin, change the dependency section.
• Create a new, better looking, markdown-formatted file.
• Add at least one screenshot to the file.

When an invalid command is entered, the program outputs the correct format. However, it uses "./pastebincl" instead of "python pastebingtk.py".

Private pastes cannot be loaded from the List User's Pastes dialog.

There's probably no way to fix this though, as private pastes are simply inaccessible using the API. Possibly show a dialog telling the user that private pastes cannot be loaded?

As this application is primarily intended for use with code, it makes no sense to have the default font be serif/sans-serif.

Private pastes cannot be retrieved through public API, so the spam filter detection fails.

This should be removed from PastebinGTK. Likely cause of #16.

For features like List User's Pastes, Delete Paste, and Get User's Details, the user must be logged in for it to work. However, in the current state all the application does is say that a login is necessary, then stop there. Would be better if the dialog was:

"Must be logged in to .

Login now?"

[Cancel] [OK]

Add more features like undo, redo, cut, copy, paste, find, replace, etc, to make it less painful to edit inside the application

For List User's Pastes. There is an API call to do this.

The pastebin.com API allows for a number of pastes to be specified when retrieving the list of the user's pastes. Currently PastebinGTK uses the default (50), but it can range between 1 and 1000. Use a SpinButton to limit the input to this range.

New menu:

Favorite

• Add Favorite Paste
• Delete Favorite Paste
• View Favorite Pastes

Fields for Add:

• name of paste
• paste key

Store in a JSON file. Store name, key, date added. In View, have button to open selected paste.

It attempts to read a variable that does not exist.

links to pastebin.com's FAQ page

Requires login. Have user select paste from list of their own, then enter new name. Delete old paste and reupload with new name.

In List User's Pastes, List Trending Pastes, List Recent Pastes:

If there is no paste name, display "[Untitled Paste]".

Currently the help page is out of date and incomplete. Redo the formatting and organization to make it more clear, rewrite anything that is outdated, and write anything new that is needed.
