About

upl.io is a file-upload/snippet-sharing webapp by Ole Bergmann.

uplio.vim allows you to...

• Upload snippets selected in Visual-mode.
• Upload current file and unnamed buffers.
• Insert to clipboard via xclip(UNIX/Linux), pbcopy(OS X), clip (Windows) or a configurable clipboard binary. Note that xclip also works over X11 forwarding.

uplio.vim automatically...

• Chooses a clipboard binary to paste into based on operating-system.
• Creates a temporary file when needed for Visual-mode snippets.
• Appends a filetype extension to get proper syntax highlighting.
• Adds filename "unnamed_"+strftime to unnamed buffers ^{(Example: unnamed_27.06.16_16.57.05)}.

Requirements

• curl

Optional

• Clipboard commandline-interface (xclip, pbcopy, etc.)

Install

• vim-plug

  Plug 'dezza/uplio.vim'
  vmap UU <Plug>Uplio_Visual("v")
  nmap UU <Plug>Uplio_File("n")

  With vim-plug fancy autoloading:

  Plug 'dezza/uplio.vim', { 'on': ['<Plug>Uplio_File', '<Plug>Uplio_Visual'] }
  vmap UU <Plug>Uplio_Visual("v")
  nmap UU <Plug>Uplio_File("n")

  uplio.vim already does autoloading but vim-plug autoloads /plugin/uplio.vim as well.

Configuration

• Mapping

  vmap UU <Plug>Uplio_Visual("v")
