Gist

A command-line tool for publishing gists, inspired by icholy/gist.

Usage:

Read a file from stdin:

sh cat notes.md | gist

Set a file name:

sh cat error.log | gist -f "weird-bug.log"

Make a public Gist:

sh cat file.sh | gist -p

Multiple files?

sh gist src/*.rs

I want the Gist's URL copied to my clipboard, when it's done:

```sh

*nix / X.org

echo stuff | gist | xclip

mac

echo something | gist | pbcopy ```

Install:

sh $ git clone https://github.com/lespepitos/gist.git $ cd gist $ cargo build --release $ ./target/release/gist

For authentication, the program looks for an environment variable called GITHUB_TOKEN: it is mandatory to create a "secret" gist (the default).

You can generate one at: https://github.com/settings/tokens

Then append it to your .profile, or something with:

sh export GITHUB_TOKEN="blah blah blah"
