OborPaste, a simple pastebin you can run on any server with Apache and PHP.

Installation

Rename _htaccess to .htaccess. Replace the placeholder URLs and file paths in .htaccess, textfiles.html, and textfiles.php to appropriate values; replace the placeholder API key in textfiles.php with an arbitrary key of your choice (this can be any string you like, but don’t share it with anyone). Put everything in /textfiles/ (where / is your web root).

Usage

Post textfiles by sending a POST request to /textfiles/textfiles.php, with two parameters: f (whose value should be the contents of the textfile) and p (whose value should be the API key you’ve defined in textfiles.php).

The response to the POST request will contain the URL of the newly-created paste. You can append /raw to that URL to view the raw text of the paste.

Notes

You can, of course, change the path from /textfiles/ to anything else, modifying the scripts, config files, etc. in the obvious manner.

Font Awesome is required for the action icons on paste pages. A free version may be found at https://fontawesome.com/ (they even provide a CDN, so you don’t have to host it yourself).

Probably OborPaste can be adapted to work with a webserver other than Apache (as long as it has an equivalent of mod_php), but you’d have to replicate the configuration defined in the .htaccess file in whatever form of config file that’s appropriate to your webserver of choice.
