How do you manage your gists on GitHub? [closed]
Check out GistBox. It supports searching, editing and labels. Here's a screenshot:
There's also a demo video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLgyY6lqpsQ
GistBox Clipper (a Chrome extension) also provides the ability to save <pre>
tags and arbitrary text on any web page.
Edit:
Unfortunately, GistBox is becoming Cacher cacher.io - the free plan will only include: 15 private snippets, 3 private labels, unlimited public snippets. If you plan on having many private gists then you will need to but (sic) a paid plan. – Bartek Skwira
Now gist.github.com supports search. So you can search your gist. I use #hashtag in description, so I
can search my gist by tags via user:myusername #tag
.
For offline usage, I cloned all my gists. And use find and grep to search them. I also search them with gonzui (open source code search engine).
I've written a shell script: gister.sh. I use it to
post gists. It will clone the repo to local and import into csearch automatically after the post.
The script also supports sync all your gists (gister sync
).
