Re: [tm-dev] o.e.remote

Hi Doug,

To address some of your questions:

There is already a preference page that shows all the connections (Remote Development > Remote Connections). This could be easily turned into a view, but we never felt is was necessary. Did you particularly want a view?

The getCommandShell() API was added because we knew there would come a time when someone would want one. However, PTP does not require a shell currently, so there was no need to implement it. Contributions gratefully accepted :-).

The schema requires filesystem access because our model is to target Unix-like systems. i.e. we don’t currently ever intend support a remote Windows client. However, I would be open to a schema that made this optional, provided that it does not complicate the API significantly. 

I’m certainly happy to discuss API changes, and in principal would have no objections provided that they don’t complicate how the existing APIs are used. One of our overriding principles is that there should be minimal setup required by the user (e.g. anything more than a hostname, username and password is discouraged). The use of a custom protocol is only acceptable if it can be installed and configured automatically without any user intervention.

I’m looking forward to seeing your fork, and would be happy to set up a meeting to discuss this further. The next PTP developer meeting is scheduled for 12/9 at 1pm EST, so this might work.

Regards,
Greg
