It seems that the problem is when copying the URL to the clipboard. However, does it work? Upload the file? Copy the link?
Can you give me more information? For example, the operating system you are using and its version.

There's no way to know it worked because no URL is given. It claims the upload is finished, but without supplying the URL, there's no way for me to ever know.

The service, or backend, is down. That's why you don't see the URL, it doesn't upload.
It is a client of https://transfer.sh/, without it cannot work.
I suggest you check when it is back in operation.
For more see https://github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh/issues/609
Thank you!

Not sure how anyone is supposed to know that when the error message provides no suggestion.

The message provided is the same as the one given by the transfer.sh platform. From my side, I can only tell you that the application works correctly. Perhaps you could air your concerns in the threads that are reporting the issue.

There's an Android app called Filester that does exactly the same as transfersh-cli.

They have changed their hosting today from transfer.sh to oshi.at:
https://github.com/roozbehzarei/filester/releases

Perhaps it could be added to transfersh-cli as a backup service when transfer.sh is down?

Technically it can be adapted, but I won't do it for the following reasons:

  1. Adapting it to the new provider would practically involve redoing much of the code.
  2. The client would no longer be compatible with Transfersh.
    The work would make sense in a fork, with another name, and that adapts all the capabilities. For example oshi-cli.

Hello,

@tanrax: thanks for your script, I used it to make my own version of the client: https://github.com/maaaaz/trnsfr

@ClaireCJS: FYI, some alive public instances https://github.com/maaaaz/trnsfr/wiki/List-of-public-instances-of-%22transfer.sh%22-servers

Thanks !
