fiddie

Start-to-end local-gist-jsfiddle workflow script.

Original idea by @nimbupani, here is a lazy-web-response.. :)

So, yout want to prototype stuff ? and you prefer doing it locally ? This script would let you:

• Create fiddle-ready files: fiddle.manifest / fiddle.js / fiddle.html / fiddle.js / fiddle.css (todo: maybe take existing index.html and convert them into these?)
• Then I mess with them.
• Convert them into a single public gist (change private gists options to false, default to private)
• Return me a link to the jsfiddle with a url. e.g. this is the final url http://jsfiddle.net/gh/gist/mootools/1.2/86dc0f0d363446b0869c/ for this gist https://gist.github.com/86dc0f0d363446b0869c

quick docs

This script a very first try, dont expect much. It would allow you to:

• Create a new fiddle directory, with the fiddle.* files in this current repository.
• Edit them (actually, you'll have to do this. The script wont help you much on your fiddlestication).
• run the script, within the gist you'd like to create. You'll have to provide the gist argument. eg. ./fiddie gist (insted of just fiddie)

synopsis

npm install git+ssh://[email protected]:bca5bd4747a727c3d4e2.git

# generate fiddle folder, relative to the current directory.
fiddie

# create a private gists from the fiddle files in the current directory
# and put the gist url in your clipboard (fiddle equivalent? would need a little
# configuration on fwk/version)
fiddie gists

To be able to create new gists, ngist expects both github.user and github.token to be set. The script uses the global git config before posting gists.

git config --global github.user "your-github-username"
git config --global github.token "your-github-token"

To check if it's ok, run

git config --get github.user
git config --get github.token

You can find your token under your account.
