# Sublime GitHub
|
|
|
|
This is a plugin for the [Sublime Text](http://www.sublimetext.com/) text
|
|
editor (both versions 2 and 3) that provides a number of useful commands for GitHub, including creating and browsing gists,
|
|
opening and editing files on GitHub, and bringing up the blame and commit history views.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
You can install via [**Sublime Package Control**](http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control) plugin.
|
|
Just open "Package Control: Install Package" in your Command Palette and search for "sublime-github". The plugin should be picked up automatically. If not, restart Sublime Text.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The first time you run one of the commands, it will ask you for your GitHub username and password in order to create a GitHub API access token, which gets saved in the Sublime GitHub user settings file. Your username and password are not stored anywhere, but if you would rather generate the access token yourself, see the "Generating Your Own Access Token" section below.
|
|
|
|
The following commands are available in the Command Palette:
|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Switch Accounts**
|
|
|
|
Switch to another GitHub account (see Adding Additional Accounts below)
|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Private Gist from Selection**
|
|

|
|
the contents of the active editor.
|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Public Gist from Selection**
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Copy Gist to Clipboard**
|
|
|
|

|
|
copy the contents of that gist to your clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Copy Starred Gist to Clipboard**
|
|
|
|
Displays a quick select panel listing only your starred gists, and selecting one will
|
|
copy the contents of that gist to your clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* **GitHub: Open Gist in Editor**
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
## Adding Additional Accounts
|
|
|
|
If have multiple GitHub accounts, or have a private GitHub installation, you can add the other
|
|
accounts and switch between them whenever you like.
|
|
|
|
Go to the GitHub user settings file (Preferences -> Package Settings -> GitHub -> Settings - User),
|
|
and add another entry to the `accounts` dictionary. If it is another GitHub account, copy the
|
|
`base_uri` for the default GitHub entry (if you don't see it, you can get it from Preferences ->
|
|
Package Settings -> GitHub -> Settings - Default, or in the example below), and just give the
|
|
account a different name. If you're adding a private GitHub installation, the `base_uri` will be
|
|
whatever the base url is for your private GitHub, plus "/api/v3". For example:
|
|
|
|
"accounts":
|
|
{
|
|
"GitHub":
|
|
{
|
|
"base_uri": "https://api.github.com",
|
|
"github_token": "..."
|
|
},
|
|
"YourCo":
|
|
{
|
|
"base_uri": "https://github.yourco.com/api/v3",
|
|
"github_token": ""
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Don't worry about setting the `github_token`--that will be set for you automatically, after you
|
|
switch accounts (Shift-Cmd-P, "GitHub: Switch Accounts").
|
|
|
|
## Key Bindings
|
|
|
|
You can add your own keyboard shortcuts in Preferences -> Key Bindings - User. For example:
|
|
|
|
[
|
|
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+g", "ctrl+super+n"], "command": "public_gist_from_selection" },
|
|
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+g", "ctrl+super+p","super+n"], "command": "private_gist_from_selection" },
|
|
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+g", "ctrl+super+o"], "command": "open_gist_in_editor" },
|
|
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+g", "ctrl+super+c"], "command": "open_gist_url" }
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
(Note that `ctrl+super+g` (^⌘G) conflicts with Sublime Text's Quick Find All, so adjust accordingly.)
|
|
Available commands can be seen in <https://github.com/bgreenlee/sublime-github/blob/master/Github.sublime-commands>.
|
|
|
|
## Issues
|
|
|
|
* Linux requires the [curl](http://curl.haxx.se/) binary to be installed on your system (in one of:
|
|
`/usr/local/sbin`, `/usr/local/bin`, `/usr/sbin`, `/usr/bin`, `/sbin`, or `/bin`).
|
|
|
|
* Depending on the number of gists you have, there can be a considerable delay the first time your list of gists is fetched. Subsequent requests will be cached and should be a bit faster (although the GitHub API's ETags are currently not correct; once they fix that, it should speed things up). In the meantime, if there are gists that you open frequently, open them on GitHub and "Star" them, then access them via the Open/Copy Starred Gist commands.
|
|
|
|
* Setting the file type for syntax highlighting when opening a gist in the editor does not work in Linux. I could get it to work with significant effort, so if you desperately want it, open an issue.
|
|

|
## Generating Your Own Access Token
|
|
|
|
If you feel uncomfortable giving your GitHub username and password to the plugin, you can generate a GitHub API access token yourself. Just 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 prompt 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 -> GitHub -> Settings - User, and insert the token there. It should look like:
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"github_token": "6423ba8429a152ff4a7279d1e8f4674029d3ef87"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Restart Sublime.
|
|
|
|
That's it!

## Configuring a proxy
|
|
|
|
If you are behind a proxy you can configure it for each account.
|
|
|
|
Note that until a [bug](https://github.com/shazow/urllib3/pull/170) in urllib3 is fixed, in order to use a proxy you also have to force curl mode (Curl is required obviously).
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
"accounts":
|
|
{
|
|
"GitHub":
|
|
{
|
|
"base_uri": "https://api.github.com",
|
|
"https_proxy": "...",
|
|
"force_curl": true
|
|
}
|
|
}
