dartnow 0.1.0

Dart Now command line interface

#dartnow cli

Create a directory where you want to manage your dartnow gists, for example:

mkdir ~/dartnow_gists && cd ~/dartnow_gists

Now run darnow init. You will be asked your github username. And you need to create a github token. See this doc:

https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use/

The token only needs access to your gists.

If you have done this, open the ~/dartnow_gists directory in your favourite editor. You will see a playground dir. If you want to upload the playground dir to dartnow:

dartnow create

This will save the playground dir to ~/dartnow_gists/my_gists. Generate a readme for the gist. And add the gist to dartnow.org.

Naming convention

Make sure that the pubspec.yaml file follows the right naming convention. Here is an example:

name: dart.convert_JsonEncoder.withIndent
description: |
  How to pretty-print JSON using Dart.

  How to display JSON in an easy-to-read (for human readers) format.
tags: 'json pretty-print'

If the main library contains an underscore, you use then double underscore to seperate the main library, from the element. For example:

name: route_hierachal__Router

If you want to use a creative pubspec name, you can also specify the metadata in this way:

name: my_creative_title
main_library: intl:intl
main_elements: DateFormat DateFormat.format DateTime
tags: date
