Writing On GitHub

Descripción

A WordPress plugin to allow you writing on GitHub (or Jekyll site).

Some code for this plugin comes from WordPress GitHub Sync, thanks.

Ever wish you could collaboratively author content for your WordPress site (or expose change history publicly and accept pull requests from your readers)?

Well, now you can! Introducing Writing On GitHub!

Writing On GitHub does three things:

  1. Allows content publishers to version their content in GitHub
  2. Allows readers to submit proposed improvements to WordPress-served content via GitHub’s Pull Request model

Writing On GitHub might be able to do some other cool things:

  • Allow teams to collaboratively write and edit posts using GitHub (e.g., pull requests, issues, comments)
  • Allow you to sync the content of two different WordPress installations via GitHub
  • Allow you to stage and preview content before «deploying» to your production server

How it works

The sync action is based on two hooks:

  1. A per-post sync fired in response to WordPress’s save_post hook which pushes content to GitHub
  2. A sync of all changed files triggered by GitHub’s push webhook (outbound API call)

Instalación

Using the WordPress Dashboard

  1. Navigate to the ‘Add New’ in the plugins dashboard
  2. Search for ‘Writing On GitHub’
  3. Click ‘Install Now’
  4. Activate the plugin on the Plugin dashboard

Uploading in WordPress Dashboard

  1. Download writing-on-github.zip from the WordPress plugins repository.
  2. Navigate to the ‘Add New’ in the plugins dashboard
  3. Navigate to the ‘Upload’ area
  4. Select writing-on-github.zip from your computer
  5. Click ‘Install Now’
  6. Activate the plugin in the Plugin dashboard

Using FTP

  1. Download writing-on-github.zip
  2. Extract the writing-on-github directory to your computer
  3. Upload the writing-on-github directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  4. Activate the plugin in the Plugin dashboard

Configuring the plugin

  1. Create a personal oauth token with the public_repo scope. If you’d prefer not to use your account, you can create another GitHub account for this.
  2. Configure your GitHub host, repository, secret (defined in the next step), and OAuth Token on the Writing On GitHub settings page within WordPress’s administrative interface. Make sure the repository has an initial commit or the export will fail.
  3. Create a WebHook within your repository with the provided callback URL and callback secret, using application/json as the content type. To set up a webhook on GitHub, head over to the Settings page of your repository, and click on Webhooks & services. After that, click on Add webhook.
  4. Click Export to GitHub

FAQ

Markdown Support

Writing On GitHub exports all posts as .md files for better display on GitHub, but all content is exported and imported as its original HTML. To enable writing, importing, and exporting in Markdown, please install and enable WP-Markdown, and Writing On GitHub will use it to convert your posts to and from Markdown.

You can also activate the Markdown module from Jetpack or the standalone JP Markdown to save in Markdown and export that version to GitHub.

    └── some-images # copy all files (include subdirectory) to wordpress
Importing from GitHub

Writing On GitHub is also capable of importing posts directly from GitHub, without creating them in WordPress before hand. In order to have your post imported into GitHub, add this YAML Frontmatter to the top of your .md document:

---
post_title: 'Post Title'
post_name: 'this is post name'
post_date: '2018-03-07 15:21:26'
layout: post_type_probably_post
published: true_or_false
author: author_name
tags:
    - tag_a
    - tag_b
categories:
    - category_a
    - category_b
---
Post goes here.

and fill it out with the data related to the post you’re writing. Save the post and commit it directly to the repository. After the post is added to WordPress, an additional commit will be added to the repository, updating the new post with the new information from the database.

Note that Writing On GitHub will import posts from the master branch by default. Once set, do not change it.

If Writing On GitHub cannot find the author for a given import, it will fallback to the default user as set on the settings page. Make sure you set this user before you begin importing posts from GitHub. Without it set, Writing On GitHub will default to no user being set for the author as well as unknown-author revisions.

It is really helpful. I already tried many ways to sync our website to GitHub, but due to the big size of backup files, failed many times. And some plugins cannot be used properly in our current version. The plugin ‘Writing On GitHub’ works for me. Thank you so much.

Although it’s a Writing on Github plugin, I didn’t expect that one loses the edit function in WordPress. Plugins should be supplementary and not remove an existing functionality. A new post created in WordPress syncs to the Github repo but again, when one’s to edit the page, which is typical, one has to do edit Markdown now in Github? This may be usable in use cases where you need WordPress to start something but when is that the case. WordPress is a blogging tool not an init tool. My 2 cents. It syncs at the least. Edit: I initially gave this a 3 star because I was frustrated. I’m back and giving it now a 4. It’s for free and it works. Probably it’s simply there to supplement a Markdown repo to be used with Jekyll perhaps and not the other way around.
