# `Astro-Gists`
This is an [Astro integration](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/integrations-guide/) that allows the user to import GitHub Gists by ID through an Astro Component and Octokit
## Example
![Example of AstroGists in use](./src/assets/example.png)
## Usage
### Prerequisites
The Only Requirement to install this package is a **Github account with a Verified Email** to be able to create a Personal Access Token.
This Integration uses [`Octokit`](http://octokit.github.io/) by `GitHub` to Generate custom gists using [`ExpressiveCode`](https://expressive-code.com/) within your Astro project!
### Installation
Install the integration **automatically** using the Astro CLI:
```bash
pnpm astro add @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
```bash
npx astro add @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
```bash
yarn astro add @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
Or install it **manually**:
1. Install the required dependencies
```bash
pnpm add @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
```bash
npm install @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
```bash
yarn add @matthiesenxyz/astro-gists
```
2. Add the integration to your astro config
```diff
import { defineConfig } from "astro/config";
+import astroGist from "@matthiesenxyz/astro-gists";
// https://astro.build/config
export default defineConfig({
+ integrations: [astroGist({
+ MDXIntegration: true // This is the default option and will enable or disable @astrojs/mdx
+ })]
});
```
### Configuration
Setup your `.env` file with the following secret from github:
Github Personal Access Token (Classic)
- No Special Permissions required
- Octokit recommends creating an empty token for this!
```dotenv
GITHUB_PERSONAL_TOKEN=ghp_YOURPERSONALTOKENHERE
```
*Note: Without this token, you will be HEAVILY limited by quantity of requests made with Octokit.*
### Usage
#### `<GetGist>` Shows a SINGLE gist from a GistCollection
This Utility is meant to display a single Gist as Codeblocks using ExpressiveCode for Astro instead of Scripted Elements using the default Gist method by calling the ID and Filename
```astro
---
import { GetGist } from "@matthiesenxyz/astro-gists/components"
---
<GetGist
gistId="your-gist-id-here"
filename="name-of-desired-file-to-be-displayed.md"
/>
```
#### `<GetGistGroup>` Shows all of the Gists from a GistCollection
This Utility is meant to display an entire collection of Gists by ID
```astro
---
import { GetGistGroup } from "@matthiesenxyz/astro-gists/components"
---
<GetGistGroup
gistId="your-gist-id-here"
/>
```
## Contributing
This package is structured as a monorepo:
- `playground` contains code for testing the package
- `package` contains the actual package
Install dependencies using pnpm:
```bash
pnpm i --frozen-lockfile
```
Start the playground:
```bash
pnpm playground:dev
```
You can now edit files in `package`. Please note that making changes to those files may require restarting the playground dev server.
