More and more I am moving my computer usage to my iPad. One of the things that I have not been able to find a good workflow for is editing the openHAB configuration.
I have an openHABian RPi that I access over SMB to edit the configuration files. I have a file based setup, and try to avoid Paper UI.
On my laptop I happily use VScode with the extension.
On the iPad, I currently use the Readdle Documents app with a Synced folder and use their built in text editor for some minor changes. Since there is no support for code editing this is cumbersome.
What I would like to be able to do, is to use a proper code editor like Textastic. But I haven’t found a way to open any specific openHAB file type (.items, .rules) in that app.
Has anyone already found a way of getting this working? Do you know a proper iOS editor that will open my configuration files?
Thanks for the suggestion. I am looking for a more native iOS experience. ssh and nano are perfect for minor quick fixes but when spending more time for example when writing rules I really like to have a better experience and IDE like functions (like Textastic).
I’ve not yet many experience with this, but this is what I try at the moment.
Runs in Safari/Browser, so it is device independent. Supports VS Code openHab Extension…
