Webstorm+ssh?

Question

SSH

Good day, dear habrazhiteli!

There was a need to work with a remote project via ssh.

Interested in how to open this project via ssh with WebStorm and edit it directly on the server, without downloading files. This is a very cool IDE and it seems to me that she cannot help but be able to do this. I have not yet been able to ensure that she does not start downloading files, but simply opens the project.

Answer 1

In the form you have formulated, this is unlikely to be possible. However, the file system of the remote server can be picked up by the client, which will mount it as a local one. If you are using Linux, it is easy to make regular sshfs, with Windows it is more difficult, you will have to download something like RealSync or an alternative similar to it.

Answer 2

Create a project in an empty folder, set up deployment, set your server as default and check the box to download on save.
Next, you will see the Remote host panel - find the file there, select donwload ... and edit.
As far as I know - only this way, i.e. download only the files you need. At the same time, it is natural to search through all files, etc. there are no buns.

Answer 3

*Storm cannot work directly, only through deploy

Answer 4

thanks a lot to everyone for the answers, apparently you really have to work through deploy ... or through vim in the console;)
