Microbin

Introduction

MicroBin is a feature rich, performant and secure text and file sharing web application, a "paste bin". Imagine cloud storage, but simpler, and with cool features like URL redirection, automatic file expiry, raw file serving support, and 3 possible levels of encryption.

Setup

The following is a minimal configuration to get MicroBin up and running:

{
  services.microbin = {
    enable = true;
    settings = {
      MICROBIN_BIND = "0.0.0.0";
      MICROBIN_PORT = 8080;
    };
  };
}

Access it on localhost:8080

Additional Configuration

For details regarding the MicroBin environment variables go to https://microbin.eu/docs/installation-and-configuration/configuration.

The following is a more complete configuration:

{
  services.microbin = {
    enable = true;
    passwordFile = "/var/lib/microbinEnv";
    settings = {
      MICROBIN_BIND = "0.0.0.0";
      MICROBIN_PORT = 8080;
      MICROBIN_ENCRYPTION_CLIENT_SIDE = true;
      MICROBIN_ENCRYPTION_SERVER_SIDE = true;
      MICROBIN_HASH_IDS = true;
      MICROBIN_DISABLE_TELEMETRY = true;
    };
  };
}

It is recommended to not write your admin password and user to the settings file so that is not stored in the nix store.
