TyporaBloggerAPI

A PowerShell library for publishing markdown files authored in Typora to Blogger. This library exists because OpenLiveWriter isn't being actively maintained and Typora is awesome. The intention is that you would author your blog posts in Typora and then drop to a command-prompt to publish them to Blogger.

Note:

Currently in development. Currently tested on Windows

Getting Started

1. Install necessary dependencies:

   choco install pandoc
   

   (Future: still need to publish to PowerShell nuget library)

   Install-Module TyporaBloggerApi
   

2. Authenticate with your Blogger account:

   Initialize-TyporaBlogger
   

   This will launch a browser and authenticate with Google.

   Note:

   You may be prompted that Google hasn't verified the app yet. Working on it. Click Continue for now.

3. List your blogs

   Get-BloggerBlogs
   

4. Set a default blog
