CloudApp for Linux (and Windows) - py-cloudapp
CloudApp is one great way to share your files elegantly. And the features they provide even with their free accounts are great
- Create unlimited bookmarks
- Upload 10 files a day (max file size 25MB)
- Update: keep your files forever
The only problem is it’s Mac OS centric, but the CloudApp team provides developers a nice api so that other platforms don’t get left out.
Here is one such attempt of bringing CloudApp to Linux - py-cloudapp. As the name suggests, it’s a multi-threaded python application which allows you to drag-drop-upload files into CloudApp and auto clipboard copy links into the clipboard.
Here are a few main features
- Add/Delete/View files on CloudApp.
- Auto Clipboard copy support.
- Notification Support - libnotify support (linux)
Just make sure you install the following dependencies from your distro’s repositories.
- Py-Qt
- Python (>2.5)
Try it out guys, let me know of any bugs and suggestions on the github page. For the next version, I have things like better notifications and screenshots lined up.
