Upload feature for new Screenshot application #281

@EbonJaeger

Description

@EbonJaeger

Budgie version

10.7

Use-cases

Taking a screenshot and having a button to upload it to an image sharing service (say, Imgur) is very handy; it saves the person taking the screenshot from having to do that work manually. With the recent archival of budgie-screenshot-applet, which had this functionality, it would be great if the built-in screenshot solution could do that, too.

Proposal

After taking a screenshot:

  1. Add a button to the dialog header to upload the image
  2. On click, upload the image data to an online service
    2a. It may be desirable to have a way to choose a provider, or for the user to set one themselves
  3. Read the response from the provider, and either show a link to the image or show an error

References

The best reference for this is probably budgie-screenshot-applet.
