Add suport for bidirectional sync of files #477

Open chrysremes opened 1 year ago

chrysremes commented 1 year ago

Currently, I am able to create files on my local pc, and then upload them to the databricks server through the sync process. However, the sync process does not download other existing files in the repo.

Thus, anything created in the Databricks interface on the browser cannot be synced to my local pc, unless through a tedious manual process of copy-paste. This also leads to confusions and dealing with a pre-existent repo.

Summary: Syncing repos can upload new files, but it cannot download previously existing ones. [enhancement]

Version: 0.2.4

bidirectional sync is not something we are currently planning to implement as the existing REST APIs makes it very hard to implement. We might have to update the backend to support it.

I'm leaving this ticket open to track demand for this feature.

I would like bidirectional support too

alex-woodhouse commented 1 year ago

Some of my team like the Databricks web interface and some prefer VS Code. I'm assuming bi-directional support would be required to enable synchronisation between the two editors even when both are committing to the same repo?

The databricks extension by paqio can do this, just FYI

I would also find this valuable
