My shell file uploader. SCPs files but allows for deleting afterwards, randomising names, etc. Ideal for screenshot uploading.

b_upload.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'optparse'
require 'digest/md5'
require 'net/scp'
require "fileutils"

options = { }
optparse = OptionParser.new do |opts|
  opts.banner = "Usage: b_upload [-p|--preserve|-d|--delete-local] file"

  # Configure your server details here
  options[:scp_host] = "your-server.example.com"
  options[:scp_user] = "user_on_your_server"
  options[:scp_folder] = "/folder_for_saving_file_on_server/"
  options[:scp_folder_url] = "http://url_to_access_folder_containing_files_on_server/"

  options[:preserve] = false
  opts.on('-p', '--preserve', 'Preserve current filename') do
    options[:preserve] = true
  end

  options[:delete_local] = false
  opts.on("-d", "--delete-local", "Delete local file after upload") do
    options[:delete_local] = true
  end

  opts.on('-h', '--help', 'Display this screen') do
    puts opts
    exit
  end
end
optparse.parse!

file = ARGV[0]
if (file == nil)
  puts "No file provided as argument. Use `b_upload -h` for help."
  exit
end

original_name = file.split('/').last

if (!options[:preserve])
  parts = original_name.split('.')
  ext = (parts.length > 1) ? "." + parts.last : ""
  name = Digest::MD5.hexdigest(original_name + String(rand())) + ext
else
  name = original_name
end

Net::SCP.upload! options[:scp_host], options[:scp_user], file, "#{options[:scp_folder]}#{name}"

puts "#{options[:scp_folder_url]}#{name}"

if options[:delete_local]
  if File.exist? File.expand_path("~/.Trash")
    # On OSX, and can move file to Trash instead of normal rm (this is safer for users)
    # Due to issues with rb-appscript etc, for now this isn't the 'proper' Finder way
    FileUtils.mv file, File.expand_path("~/.Trash/")
  else
    # Not OSX, or no Trash. Just delete it.
    FileUtils.rm file
  end
end

THIS IS CRAZIER THAN THE CRAZIEST THING EVAR
