@blacter
also, you are supposed to be able to have a ‘disk view’ over the remote ssh disk withI can’t get it to work on catalina 15.5 at the moment

@lavolp3 yeh, tricky crap… just click the buttons (unless u are making 100 of these disks)

it is the best way to run a pi headlessly. I never use the GUI.
-
@lavolp3 i don’t use the gui either after initial setup…
but u can’t run headless AND have MM on it… (unless in serveronly mode)
use ssh ans sftp file system over…
winscp and bitvise clients… -

yeah you got me it’s not really headless.
I set up the pi on my laptop, start it and install the mirror via ssh already. So I don’t have to attach a keyboard to the pi. -
@lavolp3 absolutely!.. I only use the actual pi keyboard/mouse when absolutely neccessary… got one of the little combo keyboard/mouse things. but still a pain
-
Okay, I’m connected to the MagicMirror on my Mac’s terminal. Is there a way I can now open the config.js file in a text editor on my Mac?
-
@blacter if u install those other components then you open a sshfs session to have a file browser over the pi disk, then yes,
short of that u have to use the editor ON the pi… text mode

@sojourner Thanks for suggesting this, I am now using it and it makes remote code editing a breeze.
For those wishing to use it, after installing VS Code read this article to enable remote editing.
