A Sublime Text 2 plugin for creating and editing Gists.

Install Package Control. Gist will show up in the package list. This is the recommended installation method.

Go to the "Packages" directory (Preferences / Browse Packages…). Then clone this repository:

git clone git://github.com/condemil/Gist

If you're using OS X and have a keychain entry for github.com, no configuration is needed. Otherwise, edit the settings file (it should open automatically the first time you use a Gist command). Note you must specifiy either username AND password or token.

• "username": ""

  You can enter your GitHub username here

• "password": ""

  You can enter your GitHub password here

• "token": ""

  You can enter your GitHub token here. To generate a token, see "Generating Access Tokens"

• "https_proxy": http://user:pass@proxy:port

  You can enter https proxy here Format: "http://user:pass@proxy:port"

• "enterprise": false

  Set this to true if you want to use a enterprise version of github instead of github.com

• "url": ""

  Set the url of the enterprise version of github you want to use. Leave this blank if the enterprise option is set to false.

• "max_gists": 100

  Set the maximum number of Gists that can will fetched by the plugin. It can't be higher than 100, because of GitHub API limitations.

• "gist_prefix": ""

  Limit the Gists displayed in the Open Gist list by prefix. Leave blank to display all Gists. Example: "gist_prefix": "Snippet:" will only list Gists with names starting with the text Snippet:.

All functionality of the plugin is available in the Tools / Gist menu and in the command pallette.

Use the Gist / Create Public Gist or Gist / Create Private Gist commands. If you don't have anything selected, a Gist will be created with contents of current file, URL of that Gist will be copied to the clipboard and then the file will switch to Gist editing mode. If you have selected some text, a Gist will be created using only that text and then immediately opened for editing. In case of multiple selections, you'll get one Gist with multiple files.

Use the Gist / Open Gist command to see a list of your Gists. Selecting one will open the files from that Gist in new tabs. You can then edit the files normally and use Gist / Update File to update the Gist, or use other commands to change Gist description, remove or rename files, or delete the Gist.

Use the Gist / Add File To Gist command to see a list of your Gists. Selecting one will add contents of current file as a new file to that Gist and switch the file to Gist editing mode.

Adapted from here Open up a Terminal window/shell (on OS X, Linux or Cygwin), and run:

curl -u username -d '{"scopes":["gist"]}' https://api.github.com/authorizations

where username is your GitHub username. You'll be prompted for your password first. Then you'll get back a response that includes a 40-digit "token" value (e.g. 6423ba8429a152ff4a7279d1e8f4674029d3ef87). Go to Sublime Text 2 -> Preferences -> Package Settings -> Gist -> Settings - User, and insert the token there. It should look like:

{
    "token": "6423ba8429a152ff4a7279d1e8f4674029d3ef87"
}

Restart Sublime.
