Alfred Workflow: Upload Screenshot to Oracle Object Storage

This workflow helps you upload screenshot in your clipboard or local disk to oracle object-storage using s3 compatible API and put the public url of the image to your clipboard.

Overview

This workflow is written in Python and used Boto3 as AWS client to upload files.

Upload clipboard image directly or upload a file.

Services used

1. Oracle object-storage for hosting. Oracle offers always free 10gb object-storage which is plenty.
2. Tinypng for screenshot compression. Helps reduceing screenshot size drastically and save bandwidth for end-users. (optional)
3. Cloudfront for proxying object-storage url to make smaller url. (optional)
