NAME

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

VERSION

version 1.013

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'

You can also generate a token by navigating to https://github.com/settings/tokens and generate a new token with the 'Create gists' ability.

Then, export the resulting token as the the GITHUB_OAUTH_TOKEN environment variable. This will grant gist rights to App::Nopaste (or anything else that Don't worry, you can revoke access rights anytime from the GitHub profile settings.

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!
