[nodebb-plugin-github-embed] GitHub Issue Embedding

Mandosis

@julian Fantastic! Thanks for the help!

Edit: I cant seem to be able to get this to work. Is it because I dont have a callback URL or that I am not the owner of the repo?

@Chris-Rabuse The use of the id/secret was originally added to raise the limit for GitHub calls. I'm guessing it doesn't work to find private repos

Give me a moment to check...

@julian Would a personal access token work?

Yes, though the plugin doesn't support it yet. Will push a new version shortly.

@julian This works perfectly! Thank you!

Updated the plugin, still working fine on v0.6.x and v0.7.x

Updated the plugin again. Now you can reference commit hashes!

Just don't try clicking and dragging the scroll bar.

julian

scrollbar?

Yeah the.. oh you fixed it. Now I look silly.

@julian Thought wrt usability of the keyword replacement and refusal to do thereof (ref post #18) - why not take a step similar to how wikis go and tack on a footnote link which would link to the appropriate segment at the bottom of the post.

ex "gh01234" -> "gh01234 [1]"

Best of both worlds. Users can find the actual embed they want to see info for, and you don't get weird voodoo going on.

Also hi.

@julian Scrollbar! You can't drag it. Turns into a weird image type drag. You can click, and it scrolls, but not drag.
