Trustbin replaces public snippet sites like gist.github.com, pastebin and others with a private, self-hosted version that keeps your teams code snippets private and under your own control.
Trustbin was built for software teams like yours. You work on critical code, but frequently need to share snippets between team members. Instead of relying on public cloud available services like gist, spin up your own instance of the private, self-hosted alternative.
The easiest, simplest way to get this running is by deploying directly to the DigitalOcean App Platform, which will create a scalable cluster with a database backend for you. Note, this takes a few minutes:
Trustbin runs on Rails 7, Ruby 3 and uses Postgresql to store your snippets. Run Trustbin by cloning the repo and then using the docker compose to get up quickly. Note that these steps expect Compose v2:
Install Compose v2 if needed (Ubuntu):
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
sudo apt update -y
apt-cache policy docker-ce
sudo apt install docker-ce -y
mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins/
curl -SL https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v2.3.3/docker-compose-linux-x86_64 -o ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose
chmod +x ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/scott/trust_bin.git
Copy .env.sample to .env and configure how you like.
cp .env.sample .env
Next build the container
docker compose build
Trustbin encrypts all of your code snippets. To do this, we first have to generate some credentials and add them to the vault:
docker compose run --rm web bin/rails db:encryption:init
docker compose run --rm -e EDITOR=nano web bin/rails credentials:edit
Now create the database with
docker compose run --rm web bin/rails db:setup
Precompile assets
docker compose run --rm web bin/rails assets:precompile
Finally, run the app with
docker compose up -d
