pygments.appspot.com shutting down about highlight HOT 9 CLOSED

Why is it shutting down? Maybe you can set up a new one somewhere else (code is available here https://github.com/trevorturk/pygments)?

from highlight.

feel free to fork it and setup your own, but i personally have no use for it anymore.

i wont speak for @trevorturk tho

@marcoow I'm not shutting it down immediately, just reducing the daily budget dramatically to start. I'm being billed something like $8/week, and I'm not using it anymore myself. I feel bad about it, but I'm sure you can understand I don't want to pay $8/week indefinitely for something I'm not using.

from highlight.

Oh, and you can feel free to set up your own instance using the code here. I think the minimum charge on App Engine is $2/week.

from highlight.

Thanks; I was under the impression that App Engine was completely free for the smallest instance type (never actually used it myself though). I'm just going to remove the fallback as it's not so great to do syntax highlighting on the server side via a synchronous HTTP request anyway ;)

from highlight.

Yeah -- it was free when I set it up, but they keep raising the prices on me 😢

from highlight.

Fixed - I set up a new HTTP API at http://pygments.simplabs.com though - running for free on Heroku 👍
