A small script demonstrating how to upload a file to file.io via its API using python.

Specifically, this script monitors a log file named name.log, parses the filepath in get_filepath() and then posts the file. The file is configured to expire after 1 day, with 1 max download available and autodelete after download.

Multiple accounts can be uploaded to in a single run by adding more apikeys to APIKEYS.
