/path/to/file.pngTo maximize joy, pair with Hazel.
- Create "Uploads" folder
- Drag "Uploads" folder into Dock
- Create new rule in Hazel for "Uploads" folder, choose "Run Shell Script", "embedded script", "/bin/bash" and paste/adjust the following:
uplr "$1"
Note that depending on your ruby setup it might be necessary to provide the full path to the binary, for example ~/.rbenv/shims/uplr for rbenv.
Now you just have to drag&drop a file to the dock folder and seconds later there is a shareable link in your clipboard. Awesome!
