rkick | a sidekick for remote development

rkick is a JavaScript library. rkick has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. You can install using 'npm i rkick' or download it from GitHub, npm.

rkick is a helper to solve a common problem with remote development workflows (especially with vim). Your development environment works great on your local machine, but when you need to work off a remote host, it falls apart. SSHFS can be frustratingly slow. rkick is essentially a wrapper around rsync. You can do two things with rkick: --push and --pull . Both work with your current directory. To start syncing your current directory with your remote host: rkick --push dev:~/path/to/dir/. rkick will watch everything and rsync when files change. To update your current working directory from your remote host: rkick --pull dev:~/path/to/dir/. Like rsync, if you want the contents only, don't forget your trailing slash.
