NAME

App::Nopaste::Service::Gist - Service provider for GitHub gist - http://gist.github.com/

VERSION

version 1.006

GitHub Authorization

In order to create gists you have to get an oauth token. That could be easily obtained via curl:

    curl -X POST 'https://USERNAME:PASSWORD@api.github.com/authorizations' \
        -d '{"scopes":["gist"],"note":"App::Nopaste"}'

or you can use this module to do the same:

    perl -MApp::Nopaste::Service::Gist -e 'App::Nopaste::Service::Gist->create_token'

This will grant gist rights to the App::Nopaste, don't worry you can revoke access rights anytime from the GitHub profile settings. Search for token in response and export it as GITHUB_OAUTH_TOKEN environment variable.

Alternatively, you can export the GITHUB_USER and GITHUB_PASSWORD environment variables, just like for the gist utility.

You can also simply store your credentials in plaintext in ~/.github as in:

    login bob
    password ilikeducks

That's it!
