Gist-it
- Copy github url of the file you like to embed.
- Submit it to Gist-it and copy the script tag generated.
- Use the script tag copied in you blog, same as you use gist.
Description
gist-it.appspot.com lets you take a file from your GitHub repository and embed it into any webpage, just like a gist
Syntax highlighting by google-code-prettify
Usage
Take a github file url and prefix it with http://gist-it.appspot.com
and embed the result within a <script>
tag:
<script src="http://gist-it.appspot.com/http://github.com/$file"></script>
$file
should follow the github repository pattern of$user/$repository/raw/master/$path
github/$file
is a shorthand forhttp://github.com/$file
and works in the same way
Additional customization is possible by including one or more of the following in the query string:
Supply a slice
parameter to show only a particular portion of the file:
slice=0:-2 Show the first line up to and including the second to last line slice=24:100 Show lines 24 through 100 slice=0 Show only the first line of the file
Use the footer
parameter to control the appearance of the footer:
footer=no
footer=0Hide the footer footer=minimal Show the footer without " This Gist brought to you by gist-it.
"
Example
function Xyzzy() {
return "Nothing happens";
}
