Add a button in Discourse to share posts on LinkedIn

Out of Date

It looks like the Discourse APIs have changed, and this plugin will no longer work for the latest versions of Discourse.

I no longer run a Discourse instance myself and so have no interest in updating this plugin. I'm happy to link to your repository if you have a LinkedIn sharing plugin that can replace this one.

Discourse LinkedIn Sharing Button

By default, Discourse supports sharing posts on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and email. With this plugin, you can add support for sharing on LinkedIn in the same fashion.

How To Use

1. Add a line to your app.yml (I'm assuming you're running Discourse in Docker. If not, you're on your own!)

hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - mkdir -p plugins
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/rcfox/Discourse-LinkedIn-Sharing-Button.git

(It might be a good idea to fork this repo so that I don't change it underneath you.)

2. In /var/discourse, run: ./launcher rebuild app

Note: This will probably take ~10 minutes to finish.

3. In the Discourse Admin settings, under the "Basic Setup" category, add linkedin to the "share links" setting.

Note: It seems Discourse currently doesn't respect the ordering of share links added by plugins. The LinkedIn button will be last. :\
