I'd like to be able to use this extension for private GitHub installations.

In the last couple of days, Gist does not seem to work any more and you see the following process somehow looping endlessly and resulting in high CPU usage:

bash gist.sh

Error Message:

[22:03:43.349] STDERR: Gist[[Run Script] functions.sh: line 236: python: command not found

I'm not sure how does the shim work for Alfred? I have python 2 installed via pyenv:

❯ which python                                                                                                                                                                          ─╯
/Users/liren/.pyenv/shims/python

❯ python --version                                                                                                                                                                      ─╯
Python 2.7.18

However the /usr/bin/python3 executable could be read by the Alfred Workflow, so I tried changing the script to python3:

echo -n "$1" | python3 -c 'import json,sys; print json.dumps(sys.stdin.read())'

But I don't think the string can be parsed correctly because I will still get error from gist API:

{
  "message": "Problems parsing JSON",
  "documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/gists#create-a-gist"
}

The Gist is posted,
Clipboard copying notification is delivered
the URL copied is always '{'

My login shell is fish, which doesn't use bash setup. This causes gistsetup to fail horribly. This can be fixed by replacing the line of AppleScript in functions.sh that invokes setup.sh with this:

    do script with command "/bin/bash -c 'cd \"$OUR_DIR\" && /bin/bash setup.sh'" in window 1

All I get is ERROR: An API error occured. even though I know for a fact I used the right credentials.

I use Alfred on multiple computers and using Alfred's sync feature is pointing to a dropbox . All configuration right now is per-box. So setting up a new box has a manual step of configuring this plugin.

It would be great to be able to overwrite the prefix directory.

Currently this is hardcoded over here:
https://github.com/phallstrom/AlfredGist/blob/master/gist.sh#L3

This could be overwritten in the plugin itself and the gist.sh only sets it if not currently set.

It would be great if I could search for a gist by:

• name
• content
• type.

Basically a fuzzy search on it and copy the contents.

Thanks! Great job!

So I try to add an API key on my second macbook but AlfredGist won't have it.

So what do I do?

It seems when i attempt to run "gist" i get an error.

Gist
ERROR: An API error has occured.

{"message": "Problems parsing JSON"}

I attempted to do a gist setup and no luck :(

Hi,
I've installed AlfredGist by following the instruction in the README file. I've created and successfully set the token but whenever I try to do anything with this extension I get the error "ERROR: An API error occurred".

FYI - I don't have any Alfred Gist or something like that in the authorized applications on GitHub. The extension didn't ask anything like that (and in case is required, it's not on the README).

Trying to use this on Alfred 3.2.1 and every time I go to create Gist from clipboard, it tells me I need to configure gist via 'gist help'. I do this and it brings me here. Is there something else I can try?

For example, copy this:

λ

and when you create a gist from your clipboard it is replaced with

?

in the gist.

Is there any option that we can create anonymous git ?

thanks @phallstrom for great alfred workflow :)

So i used "gist bash"

and it looks like from my "date" command came back with a miss parsing.

origserver=web31                                                                 
origimage=$origserver-`date +%25F`                                                 
newserver=web32 

That should be

origserver=web31                                                                 
origimage=$origserver-`date +%F`                                                 
newserver=web32 

Feature request: Is there a way to add an option to automatically open and copy the link to the raw gist? I wanted to modify this myself before requesting it here but I don't see where the gist.sh file is located.

This is a feature requrest
Possible searching of gist and opening it

One feature that would be awesome would be to be able to search all your private gists (keyword, etc) and copy it to your clipboard.

This would then be a multi-clipboard tool that would have instant sync.

Not sure if this is needed, doesn't look pretty.

Hi, I use this Workflow quite a bit so thanks for making it.

I noticed that it was still writing to Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/ even though I am using Alfred 3.

This was because I was using an old version. Any chance you can submit the Workflow to packal.org so updates can be pushed to the user?

Thanks

any way to modify this to create a public gist or use a parameter to create a public or private gist?

happy holidays

I don't see to have the apiconfig option:

I wondered if I already set it up, but if I try to create a gist from the clipboard I get this:

@defunkt released the official gist cli. It might cleanup the logic and escaping to just shell out to it: https://github.com/defunkt/gist

I can clone the repository but how am I supposed to get this working in Alfred? Please add at least 2 paragraphs about that into the README.

Thanks.

Trying to upload some .conf file, upon selection, the workflow returns a notification saying "An API Error occurs... message,..validation failed.."

wouldn't it be nice to upload screen captures as well?

Everything is working fine except this one feature

Is it possible to have the newly created gist's description be NOT set to the text content and be just blank?

Whenever I try to create a gist from an *.ipynb file, I get

ERROR: An API error occured.

{
  "message": "Validation Failed",
  "documentation_url": "https://developer.github.com/v3/gists/#create-a-gist",
  "errors": [
    {
      "resource": "Gist",
      "code": "missing_field",
      "field": "files"
    }
  ]
}

IPython Notebook files are just JSON. If I change the extension to *.py, it works fine.
