gist.lua

You must edit this script to include the URL to gist-proxy.php. Then, put it on PasteBin and retrieve it using ComputerCraft's pastebin script.

Usage:

gist (update/u) (Filename)
gist (get/g) (Gist ID)/(Commit) (Filename)
gist (put/p) (Filename)

With gist get, the filename is optional. If not specified, the filename on the Gist will be used. Existing files will not be overwritten.

gist update will overwrite existing files, so be careful!

gist-proxy.php

This script handles the GitHub API logic and also functions as an HTTPS proxy.

The script accesses the GitHub API anonymously, so requests are throttled to (currently) 60 per hour. If logging is enabled, the number of remaining API requests is also logged.

To enable logging of requests, edit the $log_file variable at the top.

REQUIREMENTS: Requires PHP 5.4. Must have pecl_http and php5-curl installed. In Debian: sudo apt-get install php5-dev php5-curl php-pear && sudo pecl install pecl_http
