Markdown -> Medium draft in one command

Primary LanguageJavaScript

Markdown -> Medium

  • Take your markdown file and send it directly to a medium post!! With codes + formatting!!
  • This uses the Medium API + nodejs + python to take your awesome post and push it to medium so you can focus on writing and not having to copy paste

I made this into a command line tool so its way easier to use and work with. You can also run for loops now because well.. it is a script and not a website like the original :))

How to use?

  • Clone this repository / Download it
  • Get your Medium credentials
    • Settings -> Integration tokens -> Generate new token -> Store this somewhere
  • Install nodejs
    • npm install node-fetch && npm install minimist ( To support command line )
  • Get python (you probably have it already if you use Mac/Linux)
  • Go to where you downloaded this repository in your command line
    • Run this 
          python3 poster.py --n "your post title" --f "path_to_your_file" --i "your API token"
'''
    • Optional 
      --c "Cors link"
  • Go to your medium drafts
  • Enjoy!!
