New Feature Request: Allow attaching images for comments on git Issues.

[shobhit-agarwal]

For mobile app repos, it will be a great idea to allow to include image attachments (as provided by github.com).
Esp. for comments is issues.

This doesn't seem to be supported by the Github API. The upload to Github's servers doesn't appear anywhere in the API docs, and other people came to the conclusion it's not supported as well:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28703544/create-an-issue-with-image-via-github-api

So not sure what to do there; we certainly don't want to do an own image hosting service.

You can use imgur api :P

[Bluscream]

Yeah use imgur, its also used by stackexchange ^^

[jancborchardt]

Yep, same for creating new issues. If Stackoverflow uses imgur, it should be proper for Octodroid too. ;)

It seems that this gist has found the API https://gist.github.com/15c3fd136c0e8fd547db32ad72ab045a

[maniac103]

Nah, this gist stores all uploaded files into a certain repo. This is certainly not what we want: we want a storage alongside issues, not within the repo content.

May be a solution here 👍

Still waiting, this feature very important

Example: fasthub can handle this issue

@maniac103 pls take a look again

[KaKi87]

Hello, any news on this ? Thanks

[Bluscream]

Its dead. If you need to look at code, use OctoDroid, for anything markdown related, use Fasthub

[maniac103]

It's not dead, it's just in 'maintenance onlyc mode for the foreseeable future. But wasn't development on FastHub stopped some time ago?
Edit: found the reference, see comments here
