# rcode
Calling client VS Code from remote host.
If you use [remote development using ssh](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh), [you can use `code` command on integrated terminal](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh#_opening-a-terminal-on-a-remote-host).
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`.
## how to build
```bash
go get
export GOBIN=`pwd`/.bin
go install google.golang.org/protobuf/cmd/protoc-gen-go@v1.28
go install google.golang.org/grpc/cmd/protoc-gen-go-grpc@v1.2
protoc --plugin=.bin/protoc-gen-go --go_out=. --go_opt=paths=source_relative \
--plugin=.bin/protoc-gen-go-grpc --go-grpc_out=. --go-grpc_opt=paths=source_relative \
rcode.proto
go build cmd/rcode
```
