pelican-gist 0.3.4

Installation

To install pelican-gist, simply:

$ pip install pelican-gist

Then add a bit of code to your blog configuration:

PLUGINS = [
    # ...
    'pelican_gist',
    # ...
]

Usage

In your articles, just add lines to your posts that look like:

[gist:id=3254906,file=brew-update-notifier.sh]

This will tell the plugin to insert gist id 3254906 and choose the file brew-update-notifier.sh into your post. The resulting HTML will look like:

<div class="gist">
    <script src='https://gist.github.com/3254906.js?file=brew-update-notifier.sh'></script>
    <noscript>
        <pre><code>#!/bin/bash ...</code></pre>
    </noscript>
</div>

If your gist has only a single file, you can also specify the gist like so:

[gist:id=3254906]

Notice it is using the id only. The resulting HTML will look like:

<div class="gist">
    <script src='https://gist.github.com/3254906.js'></script>
    <noscript>
        <pre><code>#!/bin/bash ...</code></pre>
    </noscript>
</div>

If a file type is specified, uses pygment to highlight the noscript version of the code:

[gist:id=3254906,file=brew-update-notifier.sh,filetype=bash]

There is also support for private gists where they have the gist id that looks like e34db4c532a6cfa1f711.

Settings

GIST_CACHE_ENABLED - Specifies whether to cache the gist on disk or not. Default is True. (Optional) GIST_PYGMENTS_STYLE - Style used by pygments for syntax highlighting. Possible values are the strings from pygments.styles.get_all_styles(). Default is 'default'. (Optional) GIST_PYGMENTS_LINENUM - Defines if pygments should add line numbers to the rendered HTML. Default is False. (Optional)

Testing

Install the necessary requirements with pip install -r requirements.txt. Once those are installed, you can run the tests with: py.test. So the whole workflow looks like:

$ pip install -r requrements.txt
