=== Leo editor script to publish from a node to Gist === At present everything is done anonymously, so there's no way to delete an old push, or make the next a push a revision to a previous one. In other words it's trivial to create **many** duplicates. So I wouldn't actually use this yet; it's just proof of concept (and wickedly easy!).

push_to_gist.py

import requests
import json

description = "published from Leo"  # todo: derive from docstring, if present, otherwise 1st para
public = True
filename = p.h      # node headline
content = p.b       # node body

api_url = 'https://api.github.com/gists'

user = ''           # todo: derive from... parent node? leoID?
password = ''    # todo: derive from... ???


g.es(filename)
print('\n\n--- %s ---' % filename)

payload = {
    'description': description, 
    'public': public, 
    'files': {
        filename: {'content': content}
        }
    }
            
#print (payload)
#r = requests.post(api_url,  data=json.dumps(payload), auth=(user, password))
r = requests.post(api_url,  data=json.dumps(payload))
print (r.status_code)
#print (r.text)

# capture and save request results
p = c.p
nd = p.insertAsLastChild()
nd.h = 'Push result: text'
nd.b = r.text
c.redraw()

#todo: parse text result and return clickable urls

# c.createLastChildNode(p.h, 'testing...', r.text)
