Fileshare Applet

Fileshare applet development is inspired mostly by Droplr windows client. Its purpose is to share images over the Internet using on-line services.
By now Imgur service is supported.

Fileshare applet features

• drag'n'drop image files to 'File Grabber' to upload
• select screen area to grab, show preview and upload
• link to the result image is automatically stored in the buffer, just paste to share the link
• Imgur and Droplr account support: run 'Log in' menu item to connect application to your account (note, that to use Droplr account you'll need to request application keys from the developers, see http://help.droplr.com/customer/portal/articles/1014091-introduction for more details)

For Linux users

1. Download and latest DEB package from releases page. Or build a package yourself if you want (requires Docker):

   ./ci/build.sh
   

   this will create deb package in dist folder.
2. Install it with the command:

# apt-get install <path to deb file>

For Windows users:

1. Download and run PyGTK all-in-one installer:
   http://www.pygtk.org/downloads.html
2. Run fileshare-setup.exe

Custom keyboard shortcut

Please, note, that not all systems support hotkeys. To check whether your system supports them, open Python console and type:

from gi.repository import Keybinder

If there's no error, shortcuts should work fine.

By default the keyboard shortcut is "<Super>P".
In case it conflicts with your system or you'd like to change it, perform the following:

1. Start the fileshare application
2. Quit the app
3. Edit the file

~/.fileshare/settings.cfg

find the section:

[KEYMAP]
grabscreen = <Super>P

and change "<Super>P" to the desired shortcut.
You may use the following modifiers: <Alt>, <Ctrl>, <Shift>, <Super>
