Yes.
From Github API V3 Documentation:
For requests using Basic Authentication or OAuth, you can make up to 5,000 requests per hour. For unauthenticated requests, the rate limit allows you to make up to 60 requests per hour.
For creating a gist, you can send a POST
request as follows:
POST /gists
Here's an example I made:
<?php
if (isset($_POST['button']))
{
$code = $_POST['code'];
# Creating the array
$data = array(
'description' => 'description for your gist',
'public' => 1,
'files' => array(
'foo.php' => array('content' => 'sdsd'),
),
);
$data_string = json_encode($data);
# Sending the data using cURL
$url = 'https://api.github.com/gists';
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data_string);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
# Parsing the response
$decoded = json_decode($response, TRUE);
$gistlink = $decoded['html_url'];
echo $gistlink;
}
?>
<form action="" method="post">
Code:
<textarea name="code" cols="25" rows="10"/> </textarea>
<input type="submit" name="button"/>
</form>
