🌈 VERSION 🌈

version 1.013 — periodt 👑

🔐 GitHub Authorization 🔐

okay so. to make gists you have to get an oauth token, no way around it. luckily it's lowkey easy. you can grab one with curl like this:

curl -X POST 'https://USERNAME:PASSWORD@api.github.com/authorizations' \
    -d '{"scopes":["gist"],"note":"App::Nopaste"}'

orrr you can let this very module do the same thing for you:

perl -MApp::Nopaste::Service::Gist -e 'App::Nopaste::Service::Gist->create_token'

you can also just generate a token the manual way — navigate over to https://github.com/settings/tokens and make yourself a new token with the 'Create gists' ability. iconic behavior honestly.

then export the resulting token as the GITHUB_OAUTH_TOKEN environment variable. that's what grants gist rights to App::Nopaste (or anything else that — yeah the sentence genuinely just ends there in the original, we love a cliffhanger 💀). 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 https://github.com/defunkt/gist utility.

and one more option for the girlies: you can simply store your credentials in plaintext in ~/.github, like in:

login bob
password ilikeducks

That's it! 🦋
