Sample use cases

Uploading

Uploading is easy using curl.

curl --upload-file ./hello.txt https://transfer.sh/hello.txt

Download the file.

curl --upload-file ./hello.txt https://transfer.sh/hello.txt

Make an alias

Create an alias, and add it to .bashrc for faster use

transfer() { # write to output to tmpfile because of progress bar tmpfile=$( mktemp -t transfer ) curl --progress-bar --upload-file $1 https://transfer.sh/$(basename $1) >> $tmpfile; cat $tmpfile; rm -f $tmpfile; } alias transfer=transfer

Now you can just use transfer command

transfer hello.txt

Transfer multiple files

Upload multiple files at once

curl -i -F filedata=@/tmp/hello.txt -F filedata=@/tmp/hello2.txt https://transfer.sh/

Combining downloads as zip or tar archive

curl https://transfer.sh/(15HKz/hello.txt,15HKz/hello.txt).tar.gz
curl https://transfer.sh/(15HKz/hello.txt,15HKz/hello.txt).zip

Encrypt your files before the transfer

You can encrypt files using gpg. The following command will encrypt the data before it leaves your server using the password you enter and upload it to transfer.sh.

cat /tmp/hello.txt|gpg -ac -o-|curl -X PUT --upload-file "-" https://transfer.sh/test.txt

Encrypt and upload

curl https://transfer.sh/1lDau/test.txt|gpg -o- > /tmp/hello.txt
