Automatically upload files in help channels to a bin service

[GodderE2D]

As mentioned in the /tag query: bin command, users should upload large code snippets to a bin service instead of uploading them as files. Some reasons include:

• They cannot be viewed within the client on mobile (must open in browser or download)
• Trying to expand it will lead to the same issue, it will just be a big codeblock again but hideable
• Trying to view full-screen and referring back to other messages in chat is a hassle
• You cannot Ctrl + F to quickly find a keyword
• You can upload the code to a bin service yourself but that can become a hassle, especially on mobile
• You can always tell the user to upload it to a bin service themselves, but they're d.js members so you never know

Possible Solution

Upon detecting a message in a help channel with a .txt/.js/.ts file, upload the contents of the file to a bin service. Then, silently reply to the message with the link to the bin.

As for which bin service to use, I think sourcebin is the most popular but I can't find if they have a public API or not. Pastebin is a close contender.

Concept

I'd like it, but as a context menu command to not clutter the chat

What about https://srcshare.io/? They also have an API: https://api.wornoffkeys.com/v1/srcshare

Yeah, not sure what that's about but I've used it, I just made a fetch request, something like this:

fetch("https://api.wornoffkeys.com/v1/srcshare", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    tabs: [
      {
        name: "Code",
        content: `${code}`,
      },
      {
        name: "Error",
        content: `${error}`,
      },
    ],
    language: `${language}`,
    title: `${title}`,
    description: `${description}`,
  }),
});
