Option to refresh current view #19

Closed augustwester closed 2 months ago

augustwester commented 2 months ago

This is a really cool project that I could see myself using every day! However, I really miss an option to refresh the current view.

Would this be possible to add?

Thank you for your interest in this project.

Does "refresh" mean to reload buckets and objects? If so, I think it would be better to have that feature.

Currently, the bucket and object lists are cached for each path while the application is running, so if there are updates, we need to run the application again.

Yes, I noticed that. I currently have no insight into the internals of the app, so I'm not sure what the best way to implement this is. All I know is that it would be nice to press r and have the contents of the location I'm looking at update.

FWIW, I work in machine learning and often find myself populating S3 with new data. When I trigger a long-running data generation script, it would be nice to see the contents of S3 update. Would love to do it through stu 🙂

Thanks!

Yeah, I am thinking of doing something like that too.
