Typora Uploads

This repository is used to store images uploaded from Typora and serve them via raw URLs.

---

📌 Overview

When you paste an image into Typora:

1. The image is copied into this repository
2. It is committed and pushed to remote (Gitea)
3. A raw URL is generated
4. Typora replaces the local image with that URL

---

🚀 Setup (First Time Only)

Clone repository

git clone https://git.tltdb.com/Typora/Uploads.git ~/typora-uploads
cd ~/typora-uploads

⚠️ Do NOT run git init. Always use git clone.

---

Setup authentication

Create .netrc:

nano ~/.netrc

machine git.tltdb.com
login tltdb
password YOUR_TOKEN_HERE

chmod 600 ~/.netrc

---

Setup upload script

Create script:

mkdir -p ~/bin
nano ~/bin/typora-gitea-upload.sh

Paste your upload script, then:

chmod +x ~/bin/typora-gitea-upload.sh

---

Configure Typora

Preferences → Image

• When Insert Local Images → Upload Image
• Image Uploader → Custom Command

Command:

/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/bin/typora-gitea-upload.sh

---

🖥️ Using on Multiple Computers

On any new machine:

git clone https://git.tltdb.com/Typora/Uploads.git ~/typora-uploads
cd ~/typora-uploads

Then repeat:

• authentication setup (~/.netrc)
• upload script setup
• Typora configuration

---

🔁 Daily Workflow

Before using Typora:

cd ~/typora-uploads
git pull origin main

After uploading images:

git push origin main

---

⚠️ Conflict Prevention

If using multiple devices:

• Always run git pull before uploading
• Avoid working offline too long

If conflict occurs:

git pull --rebase origin main

---

🧠 Recommended Improvement (Optional)

Add auto-sync to your script:

git pull --rebase origin main >/dev/null 2>&1 || true

🔒 Notes

• Use public repo if images must be accessible everywhere
• Do NOT embed token in Git remote URL
• Prefer .netrc for authentication

---

🧯 Troubleshooting

Remote rejected (non-fast-forward)

git pull --rebase origin main
git push

---

Authentication failed

• Check ~/.netrc
• Verify token permissions

---

Script not working in Typora

• Check script path
• Ensure executable (chmod +x)
• Test manually:

~/bin/typora-gitea-upload.sh "/path/to/image.png"

✅ Key Rule

git clone   # correct
git init    # wrong (for this project)
