Gost

The gist client in go

Gost is a client for the gist API, it allows you to create and browse the gists of https://gist.github.com/.

Installation

Assuming you have golang:

go get github.com/MaximeD/gost

Usage

Create gists

gost <files name>

You can supply as many files as you want here.

Full example:

gost -p -d "rocking the casbah" fun.go love_gist.rb

will create a private gist with description "rocking the casbah" with two files fun.go and love_gist.rb. The resulting url will be copy to your clipboard.

Command line options

Private gists

By default, your gists are public. If you want a private one, just add -p to your command. On first run, gost will create a prompt you for your credentials and store a token in it's configuration file, so that you will have to do this step only once.

Description

To give your gist a description use -d <description>.

Open result in browser

To have your browser auto open on the url, use the flag -o. (It will rely on xdg-open).

Update gist

To update a gist:

gost -u <gist_id_or_url> <files name>

You can supply an optional -d flag to update the description of your gist.

gost -u <gist_id_or_url> -d <new description> <files name>

List gists

You can list the gist of a user with the following:

gost -l <username>

Download a gist

gost -g <gist_id_or_url>

Delete a gist

Given you have the id of one of your gist and the right to delete it, use -D flag:

gost -D <gist_id_or_url>
