Alejandro,
The gateway server does not need to be local to your workstation. You can have one gateway server for multiple users. It can be installed on any windows server that you can reach in your network that can in turn reach your Unidata server. What terminal emulation software do you use? Accuterm now supports the VS Code extension and the gateway is not required.

Subject: [mvextensions/mvbasic] MVGateway for MacOS (#103)
I think this plugin is awesome but my setup is in MacOS and we need to do remote development. One Unidata server for everyone.
Is there a way to get a version of the MVGateway for Mac?

Sadly I have to use SBClient, which I run with wine. But that also will become a problem with Catalina :P |

Alejandro,
Do you have any Windows based system, preferably a server that can host the MVGateway? Also, I use Mac as well and run Catalina now. You may find it useful to have a small Windows 10 virtual machine with Parallels running in Confluence mode. Your SBClient terminal emulator will run much like it does on Wine. I have a few other Windows apps that I need to run so this may be difficult for you to justify.
As a second option, tell me the codes used to capture a file. On clients that I am not able to access using the Gateway, I have written a simple capture program. I capture the code to my local system, edit it locally then paste it back to the host. It is not the most efficient way but works. I have also used other protocols to extract the data. There are extensions in VSCode for FTP/SFTP and SSH if that would be helpful. I completely agree with you, VS Code is amazing. Oddly enough though I prefer VS Code on Windows to Mac because of keyboard support and standardizations. I have always felt that Mac O/S’s have never had the equivalent keyboard functionality that Windows does.
You are welcome to post to me directly at dthiot@mavsys.com<mailto:dthiot@mavsys.com>. I would also be happy to connect with you on Linkedin if you are interested. You should easily find me searching my name.

I use VSCode with the excellent
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=liximomo.sftp extension
- if you're connecting to a Unix/Linux system where you're ssh'ing in it
works very well. There's a setting so that when I open a file, it syncs
down from the server, and when saving it syncs up to the server, which
makes things pretty convenient. On first connection you can just download
the entire folder (I added something to ignore compiled _ files for
Unidata).

I was able to install MVGateway in a VM and it connects to my account and shows the files, but when I try to open the one file I get the error Unable to resolve non-existing file 'RestFS:/BP' The server is UNIDATA in Windows :S and the samba is super slow. I'm trying to open the BP files which have 12.000 programs. Is that something that MVGateway should handle? How can I debug what is going on? Where can I find logs? Also when I try to connect with eclipse it behaves better with udcsnt than udcs Any help is greatly appreciated. |

Alejandro, have you had any additional success trying to get MVgateway to work with Unidata? Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Unidata system. @ianmcgowan made some very good points and I believe that he works with Unidata regularly. |
|
No luck, and I don't know where to look. Any ideas where to look for logs or something? I have 2 Unidata servers, one is 7.3 and the other one is 8.0. I can connect but not see the contents of files in the 7.3. For 8.0 I cannot connect, no idea why. Any help is greatly appreciated. Regards |

Alejandro,
MVgateway uses UniObjects to connect to the Unidata server. Short of setting up a Unidata server, I don’t have a way to test it. In the near future, some of the gateway code is going to be made open source and that may help you debug this. Are you at all familiar with C#? That is what the MVgateway code is in.

Not much, but I came from the Java world, so I should be able to pick it up :) |

I can contribute with this also if you guys want. I just need to know how the MVGateway works.
