It is very very useful and solves the dual purpose. Providing the username and a Gistname of that user not only provides the above mentioned Links but also let ‘one’ know about the GistID of that Gist.

Moreover, this criteria can also be applied in finding ‘one’s‘ own Gist’s GistID by providing Gistname.

Note

Input

name/id -

if providing GistdID, Github-Username should be blank like search(‘’),links(id=’_GISTID’) if providing GistName, Github-Username is required like search(‘Github-User’).links(name=’THATUSERSGISTNAME’)

Required

GHgist.search('').links(id='_GISTID')
GHgist.search('_USERNAME').links(name='_GISTNAME')
