Command-Line Tool
Upload files directly from your terminal. Content is encrypted in your shell before upload — the server never sees your plaintext.
Download
curl https://paste.cipherwizard.net/cwizpaste.py -O
chmod +x cwizpaste.pyOne dependency is required for AES encryption (not in the Python standard library):
pip install cryptographyCurrent version: v1.0.0
Usage
python cwizpaste.py <file> [options]
python cwizpaste.py - [options] # read from stdinThe shareable URL is printed to stderr so it stays visible in the terminal even when piping output. Errors also go to stderr. The script exits with code 0 on success and 1 on error.

cat /var/log/syslog | python cwizpaste.py -The log content is echoed to stdout so you can pipe it further while the URL appears on stderr:
cat /var/log/syslog | python cwizpaste.py - | grep "ERROR"Suppress the stdout echo
cat /var/log/syslog | python cwizpaste.py - --quietCapture the URL into a variable
URL=$(python cwizpaste.py report.txt 2>&1 >/dev/null)
