A no-brainer pastebin on IPFS - think distributed http://sprunge.us
Why this if there’s ipfs add?
Good question! ipfs add currently doesn’t support showing a full link, let alone xclip-compatible output - the user has to select the hash, paste it in a browser and manually add the rest of their preferred IPFS link format.
Installation
merkleshare is available through PyPI:
$ pip install merkleshare
But if you want, you can install it directly from the repo:
$ pip install git+https://github.com/drozdziak1/merkleshare
Usage
A typical stdin pipe situation:
$ echo "Hello, world" | mersh -t gateway
https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmaMLRsvmDRCezZe2iebcKWtEzKNjBaQfwcu7mcpdm8eY2
How about some file input?
$ echo "Hello, friends." > file.txt
$ mersh file.txt
/ipfs/QmZRyLRgWiXN2Zks6rjH5jPYQzbWj3BYTWERa9m7QQc3kW
Or maybe you only need the hash? No problem:
$ echo "Rollin' with the hash\!" | mersh -t hash

Got security needs? You’ll be happy to know that MerkleShare supports Fernet encryption (via the cryptography module):
$ echo "Lizard people live at the edge of flat earth" | mersh -e
/ipfs/QmcXM8gCqeJA2qjnVmFYkFFc2sMjDvT21p8UwGBwzWxva8/#fT7jn4eDJLgHcM3wva4KS4eUMyJ19zuxRJhy5Lp5xwZsVzA4Q6AzoEEEZxUt
# `----------------------------------------------------------'
# Your data is guarded by a disposable secret
It’s not possible to reach your data without the secret, which is only present in the link, but if you do have it…
$ ipfs cat /ipfs/QmcXM8gCqeJA2qjnVmFYkFFc2sMjDvT21p8UwGBwzWxva8

…then retrieving your stuff with MerkleShare becomes about as easy as it gets:
$ mersh -d /ipfs/QmcXM8gCqeJA2qjnVmFYkFFc2sMjDvT21p8UwGBwzWxva8/#fT7jn4eDJLgHcM3wva4KS4eUMyJ19zuxRJhy5Lp5xwZsVzA4Q6AzoEEEZxUt

Features
Read from stdin or a specified file
Only the link gets printed to stdout, everything else is stderr - effortlessly pipe it to your favourite clipboard manager!
Seamless data encryption
Output the link in the format you need:
Regular: /ipfs/<hash>
Gateway: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/<hash> - great for sharing links with non-IPFS friends
Local: http://localhost:8080/ipfs/<hash>
Bare: <hash>
Static WebUI (The -g flag)
Planned Features
built-in clipboard support
History
MerkleShare started as an attempt to make IPFS more convenient and let the user securely share whatever they need.
