This is a simple "secret notepad" powered by the WP REST API, using server-to-server communication and private WordPress posts to store content. Each note has a 10-character ID, and there is no index functionality.
Inspired by the once-glorious, now-defunct notepad.cc.
This is an example of a WP REST API application that can communicate with either a self-hosted WordPress site or a WordPress.com site.
Install PHP on your server and clone this repo.
Have a WordPress (self-hosted or WordPress.com) site handy that's running the latest version of the WP REST API.
For self-hosted WordPress, WP 4.7 beta 2 and higher will definitely work; others may or may not work. You'll need to install the Application Passwords plugin and generate a basic authentication header for the config file.
For WordPress.com, generate an authentication token following the auth documentation.
Copy sample-config.php to config.php and fill in the values there for your
site.
The provided .htaccess file works with Apache mod_rewrite - nginx
configuration is up to you for the time being.
I have intentionally kept this app very simple. However, there are a few enhancements for which I would definitely welcome PRs:
- OAuth1 support for self-hosted sites.
- Configuration instructions/files for nginx.
