Ever wish you could collaboratively author content for your WordPress site (or expose change history publicly and accept pull requests from your readers)?
Looking to tinker with Jekyll, but wish you could use WordPress’s best-of-breed web editing interface instead of Atom? (gasp!)
Well, now you can! Introducing <a href="https://github.com/mAAdhaTTah/wordpress-github-sync" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress GitHub Sync</a>!
<h4>WordPress GitHub Sync does three things:</h4>
<ol>
<li>Allows content publishers to version their content in GitHub, exposing “who made what change when” to readers</li>
<li>Allows readers to submit proposed improvements to WordPress-served content via GitHub’s Pull Request model</li>
<li>Allows non-technical writers to draft and edit a Jekyll site in WordPress’s best-of-breed editing interface</li>
</ol>
<h4>WordPress GitHub sync might be able to do some other cool things:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Allow teams to collaboratively write and edit posts using GitHub (e.g., pull requests, issues, comments)</li>
<li>Allow you to sync the content of two different WordPress installations via GitHub</li>
<li>Allow you to stage and preview content before “deploying” to your production server</li>
</ul>
<h4>How it works</h4>
The sync action is based on two hooks:
<ol>
<li>A per-post sync fired in response to WordPress’s <code>save_post</code> hook which pushes content to GitHub</li>
<li>A sync of all changed files triggered by GitHub’s <code>push</code> webhook (outbound API call)</li>
</ol>
