I think you don't need the quotes around the file name
Thanks Carlos. Perhaps I didn't made myself clear.
The question can be rephrased as: From an interactive ipython console in Spyder, can I retrieve the path+filename.py of the file currently selected in the editor stack ?
I can see in editor.py that the class Editor(SpyderPluginWidget) defines the property _get_currentfilename(). But how can the running instance of the Editor be accessed from the console, if possible at all ?
Hello, I am in the exact same situation. I would like to know if there is any progress on this
@FrancescoCappio Currently there is no capability for direct remote editing.
However, with the new spyder-kernels split, you can run a spyder-kernels instance on the server and get runfile
on the server but you still need to put the remote file path in the runfile
function.

We will work on this for a future release of spyder so we have full support for remote editing
Thank you every body

Where can I find this runfile
function to manually edit it?
runfile
is part of the kernel, so you can call it like any other builtin (e.g. range
).
+1 on this, I think. Setting up a SciPy development environment in Windows is tricky, but setting one up in Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is relatively easy. From Spyder on Windows, I can connect to a Python kernel running on WSL, but I'm having trouble editing/running files that live on WSL (like SciPy source files). I can browse for them, but when I try to open them nothing happens.
I've also tried running Spyder on WSL and using XMing to see the GUI, but no luck.
Any workarounds in the meantime would be appreciated!
I'm eagerly awaiting this enhancement too. One thought is that you could add a dialog to the "Connect to an existing kernel" dialog asking for an optional "Remote path". If the user populates this field, you could use this as the basis for the runfile path and debug file path, Maybe down the road it could be added to File->Open, File->Save etc, but I imagine this would be a lot more work.
+1 Still definitely a plus towards this enhancement! Do we have an idea, if its still being considered?
I am trying to edit and run a script.py located in a remote server using a local Spyder running in a laptop.
I was able to successfully connect to the remote kernel running in the server and after mounting the remote directory using sshfs in a local folder in the laptop, Spyder can read and modify script.py with no problems.
However, using "Run" from the menu does not work (and for some reason uses %run instead of runfile())
I understand this fails because that path is only locally defined, while in the server the code is in a different location , say "/home/uzer/some/remote/dir/script.py"
Is it possible to access the full path of the currently selected file in the Spyder editor (that is, the string "/home/uzer/someLocalDir/script.py") ? Mi idea is to implement a custom magic such as %remote_run, that takes this string, translates the directory structure from local to remote, and finally does %run real-remote-path . I know is not the best solution, but might work for specific cases.
Apologizes if this sounds more like a question than a actual issue report.
