Edit pod files in Visual Studio Code (permalink)

The corresponding challenge is #80.

Problem

The goal is to create a Visual Studio Code extension similar to remote SSH that allows you to edit files on a remote pod as if they were directly on your machine. This removes the barrier of entry for developers and admins, because it allows them to

  • better understand what data is in the pods, and
  • edit the data in the pods.

Approved solution

We developed an extension that allows users to

  • open directories (containers)
  • open files (resources)
  • delete files (resources)
  • create files (resources)
  • modify files (resources)

You can watch a screencast here. The source code of the extension is not publicly available.

Follow-up actions

None.

Future work

None.
