Fork me on GitHub

Introduction

With this plugin it is possible to demarcate portions of an XML, Java or JSP files:

public class Java {

    // START SNIPPET: snip-id
    public static void main( String[] args ) {
        System.out.println( "Hello World!" );
    }
    // END SNIPPET: snip-id
}

This demarcations will be sent to GitHub’s Gist to create or update previous snippets.

Snippets could be backed by tests, effectively rendering them exact and maintainable if any the the dependencies shift versions over the time.
