Paste the token in the settings section under the token option.

API

Here's a command you can run from your terminal to generate a token via curl:

curl -v -u USERNAME -X POST https://api.github.com/authorizations --data "{\"scopes\":[\"gist\"], \"note\": \"SublimeText 2/3 Gist plugin\"}"

Where USERNAME is your Github username. Save the token generated and paste it in the settings section under the token option.

"max_gists": 100

"save-update-hook": true

Set the on-save behaviour of a loaded Gist. True implies that when the Gist is saved, it'll update the online Gist. False implies that it'll bring up a save dialog for the Gist to be saved to disk.

Usage

All functionality of the plugin is available in the Tools / Gist menu and in the command pallette.

Creating Gists

Use the Gist / Create Public Gist or Gist / Create Private Gist commands. If you don't have anything selected, a Gist will be created with contents of current file, URL of that Gist will be copied to the clipboard and then the file will switch to Gist editing mode. If you have selected some text, a Gist will be created using only that text and then immediately opened for editing. In case of multiple selections, you'll get one Gist with multiple files.

Editing existing Gists

Use the Gist / Open Gist command to see a list of your Gists. Selecting one will open the files from that Gist in new tabs. You can then edit the files normally and save to update the Gist, or use other commands to change Gist description, remove or rename files, or delete the Gist.

Adding new files to existing Gists

Use the Gist / Add File To Gist command to see a list of your Gists. Selecting one will add contents of current file as a new file to that Gist and switch the file to Gist editing mode.
