# PrivateBin
PrivateBin is a minimalist, open source online pastebin where the server (can) has zero knowledge of pasted data. We all need to paste data / log files somewhere when it doesn't make sense to paste it inline. With PasteBin, you can own the hosting, access, and eventual deletion of this data.

## Ingredients
1. [Docker swarm cluster](/ha-docker-swarm/design/) with [persistent shared storage](/ha-docker-swarm/shared-storage-ceph.md)
2. [Traefik](/ha-docker-swarm/traefik_public) configured per design
3. DNS entry for the hostname you intend to use, pointed to your [keepalived](ha-docker-swarm/keepalived/) IP
## Preparation
### Setup data locations
We'll need a single location to bind-mount into our container, so create /var/data/privatebin, and make it world-writable (_there might be a more secure way to do this!_)
```
mkdir /var/data/privatebin
chmod 777 /var/data/privatebin/
```
### Setup Docker Swarm
Create a docker swarm config file in docker-compose syntax (v3), something like this:
!!! tip
I share (_with my [patreon patrons](https://www.patreon.com/funkypenguin)_) a private "_premix_" git repository, which includes necessary docker-compose and env files for all published recipes. This means that patrons can launch any recipe with just a ```git pull``` and a ```docker stack deploy``` 👍
```
version: '3'
services:
app:
image: privatebin/nginx-fpm-alpine
volumes:
- /var/data/privatebin:/srv/data
networks:
- traefik_public
deploy:
labels:
- traefik.frontend.rule=Host:privatebin.example.com
- traefik.docker.network=traefik_public
- traefik.port=4180
networks:
traefik_public:
external: true
```
## Serving
### Launch PrivateBin stack
Launch the PrivateBin stack by running ```docker stack deploy privatebin -c <path -to-docker-compose.yml>```
Log into your new instance at https://**YOUR-FQDN**, with user "root" and the password you specified in gitlab.env.
## Chef's Notes
1. The [PrivateBin repo](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/blob/master/INSTALL.md) explains how to tweak configuration options, or to use a database instead of file storage, if your volume justifies it :)
2. The inclusion of PrivateBin was due to the efforts of @gkoerk in our [Discord server](http://chat.funkypenguin.co.nz). Thanks Jerry!!
