-ls not working

[avegancafe]

So I'm having this issue where :Gist -ls isn't working at all (It just prints "Not Found"). I have 1 starred gist, so there's definitely at least one, but even so, it would be nice if it said like "No starred Gists" or something instead of "Not Found", since it also says that if the url is broken, which was confusing.

Do you have ~/.gist-vim that contains github token? (note: please don't paste it at here)

[avegancafe]

Yes, I have a key. I can also do many of the other things described in the gist-vim README.

[mattn]

Could you please try following? (please note that don't paste private contents)

apply patch following

diff --git a/autoload/gist.vim b/autoload/gist.vim

   endif
+  let g:debug = res
   let content = webapi#json#decode(res.content)
   if type(content) == 4 && has_key(content, 'message') && len(content.message)
     bw!

:Gist -ls

:echo g:debug

Looks like the url is invalid

[mattn]

What is gist_api_url?

:Gist -ls
:echo gist_api_url

should be printed as https://api.github.com/

[avegancafe]

That is indeed the url that is printed

[mattn]

Hmm, could you please remove ~/.gist-vim or rename it at once?

[avegancafe]

Yeah I tried doing that a couple times, didn't help

[mattn]

Did you input password for authentication?

[avegancafe]

Yup

Hi, I know that this is an old issue, but just in case: I fixed this by adding let g:gist_show_privates = 1 to my .vimrc.

I don't know if this is a bug or not. I noticed that the used URL ended up being https://api.github.com/users/starred/gists (which as far as I can tell is not valid) and then in this part of the code:

  if a:gistls ==# '-all'
    let url = g:gist_api_url.'gists/public'
  elseif get(g:, 'gist_show_privates', 0) && a:gistls ==# 'starred'
    let url = g:gist_api_url.'gists/starred'
  elseif get(g:, 'gist_show_privates') && a:gistls ==# 'mine'
    let url = g:gist_api_url.'gists'
  else
    let url = g:gist_api_url.'users/'.a:gistls.'/gists'
  endif

it seems like the else branch ends up being used and so the resulting URL is the one I mentioned.

Hope this helps!

That fix worked for me @fvictorio ! I actually just checked out mine, and it looks like it's going to this:

https://api.github.com/users/kylelholzinger@gmail.com/gists

instead of this:

https://api.github.com/users/kyleholzinger/gists

Going to look into opening up a PR to fix this

update @fvictorio: I nailed down that on line 801 it sets gistls to g:github_user, which will default to the output of the command gith config --get github.user. In my case it was my email, but I changed it to my username and now it's working. Probably should be something in the readme? Not sure

[mattn]

Already noted in README.

$ git config --global github.user Username
