[nodebb-plugin-github-embed] GitHub Issue Embedding
-
Hi @Chris-Rabuse -- private repositories are hidden behind secure API endpoints that require a client ID and secret to access. You can generate one tied to your account in the GitHub account settings. I use my personal GitHub account, but I believe an organization works too.
It looks something like this:
If you register for an id/secret pair and put it into the GitHub Embed settings, it should allow the plugin to read/show private issues.
Keep in mind that this also means unprivileged users on your forum could also use the short codes to retrieve private issue data, so caveat emptor

@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.
