Do you have any plans to add first class support for SSH based or docker based remote development workflows?
The current Rsubl implementation kinda works. But is a bit hacky for reliable everyday work.
- ben-schaaf 5y agoWe've certainly talked about it, but there aren't any concrete plans yet.
- danmur 5y agoI love Sublime, I've paid for every version and I did the same for my devs for many years (when I had a company cc!). I would just like to say remote editing is the only thing I use vscode for. If ST had remote editing I and probably a lot of other people would use it more. Once again, love sublime, just a suggestion :)
- z3t4 5y agoInstall xserver (also works on Mac and Windows) then ssh -X to the container. Start sublime on the container, and the gui will show up locally.
- jonquest 5y agoFor one off things, it's easy enough to just use something like WinSCP or ssh + vim. Having to count on a remote environment having all of the X client software installed to do X forwarding and sublime text to boot is going to leave a lot of people disappointed. If subl supported remote editing out of the box the presence of any extra software beyond, say SSH, becomes something no one needs to care about. Bonus, your local install is already configured and setup exactly the way you like it.
- davidkhess 5y agoNot sure if it matches your use case or not, but I use sshfs with Sublime Text and it's just as good as local editing.
- supportlocal4h 5y agoI remote edit with ST. I choose File | Open to get the native Open dialog, type 'sftp://my.dev.server' and press Enter. Username and password logs me in. Then I navigate to the folder I want, and open a file or folder in ST. I don't use VS Code. How do you do it there that is so much better?
- rahoulb 5y agoI would second this - it works really well in VSCode and it's something I would happily pay for.
- silverwind 5y agoThis is my #1 feature I'd like to have. If you decide to add it, please make it flexible enough to configure all options OpenSSH provides.
- silverwind 5y agoThere is a SFTP plugin that supports this to some extend but it's a serial file sync, not parallel like VSCode so it's painfully slow in comparison.
