volascripts.sh

Those are bash scripts which are meant to interact with Volafile without a need of using the browser.

Disclaimer

volaupload.sh was originally made by lain and Xiao. It seemed to be abandoned so I enhanced it with agrument parsing and some other features.

volaupload.sh ver. 3.3

This script allows you to upload files to Volafile without using the browser. This is convenient, since it allows you to upload files with different names without a need to rename them beforehand. Use -h or --help command for full list of capabilities. Check Configuration section below to learn how to preset your room, nick and password.

stuff2vola.sh ver. 2.7

Are you a fan of redundancy and don't want to post links to stuff in chat like a pleb? Than this is a script for you. It will download most content from the web and upload it to designeted Volafile room. Script can take multiple arguments just like volaupload.sh. Script doesn't save downloaded files by default. If you want to keep downloaded files, please specify download directory with the -d option. Invoke script with -h or --help command to list other options.

volacrypt.sh ver. 1.3

With this script you are able to upload and retrive files encrypted with symmetric AES256 algorithm. If you will supply the script with a file, it will encrypt it and upload to a specified room. If you will specify valid volafile link, script will download and decrypt it.

prowatch.sh ver. 1.2

Ever wanted to watch something posted on vola but it was in a format that isn't playable in the browser? If so, then get this script, bad boi. It will work with mpv and vlc. Just use it with the direct link from vola as argument, see its help page for more description. (This can be also used by non-Pro™ users, you just won't get faster download speeds).

Prerequisites

  • bash >= 4.0
    • 4.3 version is needed if you want to have better upload bar in volaupload.sh
  • coreutils
  • curl >= 7.33.0
  • bc
    • required for floating point arithmetics
  • youtube-dl
  • ffmpeg
    • two above required for stuff2vola.sh
  • gpg
    • required for volacrypt.sh

Optional:

  • curlbar
    • required for riced upload bar, install script will ask you if you want to install it
  • inotify-tools
    • This one is needed just for --watch command in volaupload.sh script. Check the script source and decide if you find this usefull.
  • mpv
  • vlc
    • One from two above is needed in prowatch.sh.

Installation & Updating

bash and coreutils packages are essential on most Linux distributions, so you should already have them. All you need to do is to get curl and ffmpeg with your distribution's package manager. (ffmpeg is needed because sometimes to get best audio and video, youtube-dl will download separate streams and mux them together with ffmpeg) youtube-dl and curlbar will be installed with install script if you don't have them already.

To install on all UNIX-like systems for current user (into ~/.local/bin directory) type:

bash <(curl -sLo- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/szero/volascripts.sh/master/install.sh)

To install on all UNIX-like systems for all users (into /usr/local/bin directory) type:

sudo bash -c 'bash <(curl -sLo- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/szero/volascripts.sh/master/install.sh)'

Restart your terminal to finalize installation process. Install script is responsible both for updating and installing so you are good with running it whenever I release new updates.

Configuration

You can create .volascriptsrc file in your $HOME directory to preset some options you may not want to specify every time you upload something. Possible values to set:

# Room you want to upload by default.
ROOM="HF33Go"
# Your nick and password if you want to upload as logged user so
# uploads counts toward your profile statistics.
NICK="somedude"
PASSWORD="somepass"
# Room aliases in a form of bash array for setting memorable names for chosen rooms
ROOM_ALIASES=(
"plebeians=HF33Go"
"patricians=BEEPi"
)
# If you will set this options, all the files downloaded by stuff2vola.sh script will be saved
# in the specified directory.
VID_DIR="/home/dude/weed"

Example usage

volaupload.sh -r BEEPi -n Monkey ~/Pictures/wild_nigra.jpg -a "merc - approximation"

stuff2vola.sh -r HF33Go -a "oy vey" https://jewtube.com/watch?v=SH4L0M

How to upload empty file with custom name (useful for file requests).

    volaupload.sh -r BEEPi -n Liquid <(true) -a "Requesting latest BLACKED release"
