Is there a URL query string for searching only own GitHub Gists? I wouldn't care if it only worked with public Gists.
The only thing I could find is the URL for searching all public Gists, but that's not very helpful for finding own Gists
https://gist.github.com/search?q=hello+world
Ultimate goal: quickly searching for own Gists via launcher tools (in my case Alfred) or Chrome search engine shortcuts.
Once you have logged into your GitHub account, click on your username in the top right corner. This will open a menu where you can see an option called 'Your gists'. Once you clicked that option, you will see your gist page.
If you know the username you can go to https://gist.github.com/username/ and then search through them, but that only works if it's not an anonymously posted or private gist.
If you go back to your Github homepage, to the right of the create button is your picture. That dropdown menu is going to give you links to your profile and settings — but more importantly your repos, projects, and gists. Click on the link for Your gists.
Try searching with user:<username> hello world
. E.g.
https://gist.github.com/search?q=user%3Adefunkt+hello+world
