The username must be at least 4 characters.

Awww, this looks great but can you make the minimum three so I can have "gwp"? :P

@Kryptonit3 Signed up! Looks good, I hope this will be a huge success within the Laravel community.

If it requires a certain Laravel version, maybe have a dropdown and select the minimum version?

I'll work on a bin as well to help get it going.

The Markdown php code blocks fail to render with syntax highlighting, not sure if this is intended or not.

@gwp if you go to register page, you will have option to resend. If you use github then you wont get an email, account will auto verify.

@krballard94 ill look when i get off work. Thanks!

Lol yeah. :)

If anyone wants to submit logo ideas I wouldn't be opposed. The site will always be free, so your logo would need to not be copyright, and free for the site. If enough are submitted we can vote. If none are submitted ill just throw the Laravel logo up there. :)

In all honesty - I was expecting to see an empty box where I can just paste my text and save it and continue doing what I was doing.

Not the whole "welcome" page which basically forces me to register&login if I want to paste code and go share it with the world.

Well that is a possibility they would have to all be session controlled since you would not be logging in and making an account. And if you ever lost the session key or whatever implementation was made (secret url? ) it would make it very hard to edit or delete it in the future. I know GitHub and most pastebin sites use this methodology to allow anonymous posting (gist) but I think it is better for pastes to be associated with your account.

It does offer private bins for those who want to store code without others seeing.

toniperic's avatar

Yes, it is good to have an option to link your bins to your account. Making it obligatory isn't really necessary, not everyone wants that.

@krballard94 I have fixed the highlighting in the markdown rendering. I have also added versioning with each bin. You can edit your bin to apply what versions your code is compatible with.

I am currently working on tweeting public bins with a #laravel hashtag for greater visibility.

Thanks for the ideas!

I too did not receive a verification email and I've re-requested it twice. Looks great otherwise.

@Kryptonit3 It going to be great if we can run snippets on Laravel installed in browser straight away so same people well see example live

Kryptonit3's avatar

@Codenator81 That would be awesome. But what you can do is create a markdown file first (will implement reordering soon) so it is at the top of the bin, and place a link to your site or a site you know that has implemented the bin feature you are showcasing.

The only way I could think to demo laravel php code on a per bin basis would be to fire up a droplet/heroku box and set it up and demo the code (not ideal).

Codenator81's avatar

@Kryptonit3 Yes it not easy build laravel with snippets inserted but if people provide right patch from root and build it with vagrant box? But this take big server resource. It support to be same thing like sandbox which created on request. So you can create subdomain for that like https://snipped.larabin.com. Any way I never build this before :) But I think for demonstrations it is going to by great and you can give this options for payed accounts like subscription :)))

@fetch404 - ok, so the issue is this. I have a column name on users table that must be set, apparently your GitHub account doesn't have a name value set so it was returning null from the api. I have now implemented a check that if GitHub name is empty/null to use the username.

Sorry about that :) Thanks for letting me know. Gotta get these small bugs worked out.

anon12822's avatar

@Kryptonit3 any chance of getting the session/cookie to persist?

Nice idea with the comments by the way!
