Vscode-remote-release: Openwrt Linux support

[andrewgodman]

Can we have mips and ash shell support added? I was able to work around ash not working but I can't attempt to compile the remote server on mips as the source isn't open.

[subni9]

how did you work around with bash not available ?

[subni9]

my box doesn't have bash.. it has ash and i am getting an error

[andrewgodman]

@subni9 Sorry, so work around the issue I just installed bash on the device to see if it would work. @egamma Do you want a new request for ash/non bash terminal support instead?

[subni9]

Aw.. yeah I am not allowed to install bash on my box. I do need a new request for ash support..

[subni9]

any updates on this ?

Hi! Trying to install the remote Sever for VS Code on GL.iNet GL-AR750 with Openwrt, receiving "Unsupported architecture error" - whole log see below. Is there a work around or a feature coming for mips architecture?
I fulfilled the requirements:
| OpenSSH server, bash, and curl or wget
but is still missing or not up to date:
kernel >= 3.10, glibc >=2.17, libstdc++ >= 3.4.18, Python 2.6 or 2.7, tar

Ok my workaround is sshfs to mount my drive locally

[andrewgodman]

@TobSeCretR one of the devices I'm wanting support is a GL.iNet GL-AR750 as well. How did you find using sshfs?

Hello everyone!

I suggest a solution for remoting through visual studio code insider (vs code-insider can remote device using Openwrt). For instance, in Openwrt-SDK folder, I choose "bash", "curl" (for dowload file) package when building the firmware. In this case, I use the Raspberry Pi model 3B hardware and use OpenSDK-18.06. But, it have still failed.

Hello everyone,

I posted my solution for remoting a device using OpenWRT firmware. Link here (https://forum.openwrt.org/t/which-editor-for-develop-application/45815/4)

Is there any progress?

My solution is to use RMate extension with Python Rmate server on the OpenWRT device. Similar Rmate server with in C can also be used.
