Shutter

Return a URL to clipboard on upload

Asked by David Bain

The Requirement
---------------------------------
I should be able to add:
Upload Name:
Upload Location:
Upload Credentials:
Upload base url:

e.g.
Upload Name: myserver
Upload Location: ssh://myserver:/home/me
Upload Credentials: (username/password)
Upload base url: http://uploads.myserver.com/

The Result
--------------------------
A screenshot called: myscreenie.jpg, uploaded to the "myserver" location would return the URL as http://uploads.myserver.com/myscreenie.jpg

This could then be used in instant messages or email correspondence.

Thanks for this suggestion, David.

There is already a quite similar request:

Does this fit your needs? Maybe this can be done in an earlier release as targeted now (shouldn't be too hard to implement).

Btw, uploading via ssh is not supported yet, but you can use the 'Export' functionality, see:

Keep in mind that you need to connect to the server via Nautilus before exporting with Shutter.

Mario
