# Devit
> publish your markdown to dev.to, from cli
devit is commandline utility that lets you publish your markdown documents
without leaving your comfy terminal.
## Install
You could download the latest release at [Releases page](https://github.com/zoedsoupe/devit/releases)
or build it via `nix-flake`
```sh
nix build github:zoedsoupe/devit
```
## Configure
devit requires dev.to API key to be able to publish your markdown.
You can generate API key from the dev.to [settings](https://dev.to/settings/account)
page.
Export this integration token by adding it to your `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc` or
`~/.config/fish/config.fish` as follows
- bash and zsh
```sh
export DEVTO_API_KEY="api_key"
```
- fish
```fish
set DEVTO_API_KEY "api_key"
```
Now you are good to go...
## Publishing
For publishing, your markdown doc must have the following frontmatter:
```yaml
---
title: My Awesome Post
tags: some, tags, here
published: true | false
---
## markdown here
```
If your post contains images, host them somewhere public and then include them
in your document like so:
```markdown
```
Dev.to will then CDN it and you can delete it from there if you want to.
When you’re ready to publish, run
```console
$ devit --publish
Done! Your post has been published at https://dev.to/example/76272e9d241c
```
It’s that simple.
## Inspiration
This project is completely based on [mdm](https://github.com/pavanjadhaw/mdm)!
I really liked of the idea and tried to implement in Rust and also give
a try on dev.to API!
