"A given spreadsheet is locked when it is accessed"
"By default, the './spreadsheets' directory is polled every 60 seconds for file changes."
What does that mean? Can I edit the spreadsheet manually and the changes will be detected by the server or not?
- ristic 10y agoI probably need to be more descriptive. The locking is just within Python to prevent simultaneous reads and writes to the spreadsheet messing with expected results. This makes sense for my use case but probably not all use cases. Currently it simply check for any new spreadsheet(s) in the ./spreadsheets directory and opens them in LO Calc. Any spreadsheet that has been removed will be closed in LO Calc. There currently is not support for what you described. There is potential for that sort of thing to be implemented though...
