rcode
Calling client VS Code from remote host.
If you use remote development using ssh, you can use code command on integrated terminal.
But other terminals connecting to the remote host (such as iTerm2) can not use code command
rcode enables to call VS Code from remote host.
Restriction
This needs to be able to connect client host machine from remote host.
how to use
MacOS client and Linux remote server on Virtual Machine on mac
MacOS
Install rcode.
go install github.com/74th/remote-vscode-cmd/cmd/rcode@latest
Create rcode.command file to launch rcode.
10.37.129.2 is MacOS IP on Host Only Network.
/Users/nnyn/go/bin/rcode -server -addr 10.37.129.2:5450 -command code
chmod 755 rcode.command
Setting to launch rcode.command. "System Preferences..." -> "Users & Groups" -> select user -> "Login Items" -> Add -> select rcode.command
Virtual Machine
Install rcode.
go install github.com/74th/remote-vscode-cmd/cmd/rcode@latest
Create /$HOME/.rcode.yaml .
- client: MacOS IP on Host Only Network
- remote_hostname: host name used by Remote Development SSH
client: 10.37.129.2:5450
remote_hostname: linux
using on Virtual Machine
rcode /some/dir
It will open /some/dir on VS Code on MacOS.
how it works
code has an argument --remote, it launches VS Code with Remote Development.
code --remote ssh-remote+hostname /some/dir
rcode /some/dir on the remote host connects rcode server on the client, and rcode on the client calls code --remote ssh-remote+hostname /some/dir.
