The goal is to create a gist for a file given on your github account

To use the script, you have to create a token on your github settings 
On linux: export GIST_TOKEN=your_token
and OPTIONAL discord webhook url:
export DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL="webhook_url"

USE: python gist-creator.py your_file.txt

OPTIONS: 
    To set if the gist will be in public (default false)
    (true: 1, no: 0)
    --public <1 or 0>

    To set if you want to publish the link of the gist on your discord with webhook (default false) 
    (true: 1, no: 0) 
    -d <1 or 0>

By default: the gist is private
