digitalmars.D.announce - DPaste is going down

Hello.

I am very sad to announce that DPaste life came to an end.

I've been recently busy and haven't even notice that domain has 
expired.
Costs of keeping Dpaste alive are a bit too high for pure student 
like me ;)
(Mostly keeping backend's VPS paid).

I will put Dpaste website and backend source code on Github soon, 
so if someone would like to pick up the project, be my guest.

Best regards,
Damian Ziemba

I guess you meant strongly pure student. Is the asm generated lazily?

Is it possible to put it in a subpage of the dlang site? Bye, bearophile

Hehe

Not yet. Was on my todo list. Asm was generated and saved do DB and then displayed in website on each request - but then I realized it was generating a bit too much transfer. But I will improve this before posting code on GH

I guess no, unless someone volunteer to make Dpaste layout more Dlang.org-ish

Making it lazy will decrease the site costs. An useful missing feature is a way to specify compilation switches (like -wi or -O or -inline). Sometimes I find compiler bugs that are triggered only by specific compilation switches (like -inline), and I was not able to try/see those errors on dpaste. Be proud, you have created a small thing that people like, andmay be they will keep your work alive elsewhere. Bye, bearophile

What are the required minimal specs for dpaste? I would like to volunteer to host it.

That is very sad because the site was very convenient (although it missed some features). For example, I was checking behavior of code on different compilers - now I cannot do this without installing them. Perhaps you can save site engine? BTW Vladimir Panteleev (aka thecybershadow) is already running on his server wiki.dlang.org, forum.dlang.org - perhaps he can maintain dpaste? Anyway, it would be really nice to have a tool like dpaste, and perfect if it combines features from D auto-tester (http://d.puremagic.com/test-results/). For example, it would be very helpful to check code on several compilers and across several platforms.

I would love to host dpaste :) In fact, I've been wanting to create such a project myself, but Damian (nazriel) beat me to it. Damian, please contact me, and let's see if we can sort something out. Also, is it too late to save the domain name? I'd hate for all existing links to dpaste to break forever...

Thank you, Damian for creating DPaste, and thank you, Vladimir, for carrying the torch on!

I am really shocked on how much feedback I've got on this! Thanks guys.

Sure, I will ping you in a minute or so

Actually it isn't. It is embarrassment to say but I am running low on money at the moment. Everything except domain is paid as for now. VPS with backend is running, server with website too (this is actually paid for next 2 years so not big deal). Just domain is a bit pain for me. Maybe it isn't big money, extending it for next year costs 50PLN (I bought it at OVH) which is something about 12 euro/dolars.
