Add Support for Local SAS #11

Closed snladg closed 1 year ago

snladg commented 2 years ago

Idea or Feature Request.

The execution environment is currently only available to Viya, which is logical because that is the future.

I was wondering of SAS9 also could be used as execution environment. SAS9 is still used by the majority of the SAS customers. Would that be a big change?

Imagine Code is running on "localhost", where SAS Foundation is also installed. my 2 cents. Ad

+1 Especially considering there is capability already built in other projects like saspy

2TomLi commented 2 years ago

This request is already in our feature backlog.

@mail2fei Is there a certain timeline for this or is it possible to see the feature backlog? - thanks! Our organization relies on the Base SAS platform and makes heavy use of SAS Enterprise Guide, which has a rather rudimentary Git integration. Therefore using VS Code for code execution would be really great, as it would also allow to keep SAS and Python code together (regarding data science / machine learning applications).

It will help for user with SAS OA/SAS EG as well maybe.

@2TomLi @clangsmith Is there any timeline for this feature? We consider to use https://github.com/sasjs/vscode-extension instead, but for this we need to install SASjs server on our Base SAS infrastructure. Therefore it would be really great to have the possibility to use your official VS Code Extension to develop everything locally in VS Code and run Base SAS code via authentication mechanism. If there is any way to contribute, I'd be happy to help.

@gowerc Is this issue related: https://github.com/sassoftware/vscode-sas-extension/issues/61?

2TomLi commented 1 year ago

We are working on this feature, really appreciate your patience.

gowerc commented 1 year ago

@gro1m , yes I believe this is highly related (potentially mine is a duplicate)

EDIT-- Typo

smorrisj commented 1 year ago

We're going to repurpose this issue to cover implementation of support for targeting a locally installed SAS Installation. #61 is repurposed to target remote via ssh.

liuyifan-eric commented 1 year ago

I wonder if the devs have a rough plan/release date for this feature. I am really looking forward to it. Thanks a lot!

Edit: merged hurray!
