Uploader should work from networked machines #56

Open messenger-sean opened 5 years ago

Feature request: I should be able to connect to upload.toa.events and run the sync from a remote machine.

If this is not practical, then the first step of upload.toa.events should not allow specification of the domain/host, and should only support a port specification (e.g., I should enter 80 and not localhost:80).

Here is the error I get when trying to do this currently, which suggests this is not supported:

Further, I don't see any support for logging in -- TOA DataSync, I assume, just uses the local credentials or a local-based API.

Also, notably, I need to load upload.toa.events in HTTP (not HTTPS) to get anywhere.

Confirmed, works! Thanks!

Perhaps we could change this ticket to make the UI for this a bit better? It was unintuitive for this to be the fix, and I didn't come across the screenshot you cited.

Certainly user error on my part, but may be worth considering idiot-proofing it :stuck_out_tongue:
