Description

This plugin creates a shortcode for embedding github files, repositories, readmes or folders.

The shortcode format is (most settings are optional):

[github_box url=”PUT_GITHUB_URL_HERE” border=”radius” style=”box” x=”300″ y=”300″ fgcolor=”#333″ bgcolor=”#fafafa” disable_images=”false”]

………………………….
………………………….

The variables:

  • url=”PUT_GITHUB_URL_HERE”

Here you can put either a github user url, a repository url, a readme url or a file url.
They are threated in different ways; user url will show its repositories;
repository url will show its main files, readme and files will show its contents.

  • border=”radius” OR border=”true”

If we use one of this options will create a border with the content.

  • style=”box”

It will create a scrollable box with the content

  • x=”300″ y=”300″

Those options are the dimensions of the box

  • fgcolor=”#333″ bgcolor=”#fafafa”

Set the text color and background color

  • disable_images=”true”

Remove all images from the content

  • disable_fav=”true”

Remove the fav parragraphs from an user repositories

  • id=”IDNAME”

Creates a cached file of the content. This setting is very recomended to use.
But remember: if you change later the attributes of the shortcode it won’t update
until the cachetime has passed or unless you delete the cached file (in plugin’s directory).

  • cachetime=”10800″

Number of seconds before it rebuilds the cache file (default is 10800seconds=3hours)

Installation

just install it from wordpress.org plugins list or upload the plugin to the plugins folder.
put it as shortcode with the correct format:
[github_box url=”PUT_GITHUB_URL_HERE” border=”radius” style=”box” x=”300″ y=”300″ fgcolor=”#333″ bgcolor=”#fafafa” disable_images=”false”]
