I'm currently attempting to make a program to easily post a directory (and optionally the startup file) to Pastebin, then posting a seperate file (used by the installer) to request all of those files and put them into the correct directory. So far, I have the uploader almost working… However I have a simple problem which may make this project impossible: Pastebin has a limit to how much you can upload per 24h. I keep getting this error and for now what it does to handle it is creates a code (which is for testing). It did this the 4th time of testing this… Is this just because I'm stupid and am using it every time to test? Will this become a problem is you use it to upload files? Also, is there a limit to how much you can download a file? Is this just a dumb idea?
I also thought about creating a seperate webserver to handle all of it to bypass all of those restrictions, but there is one problem: I have no knowledge about creating a web server or even how to allow Lua to access files from it.
