Local Capture and Review -> Optional Remote Upload about showterm.io HOT 6 OPEN

I like the idea of being able to list and name showterms, that would be very handy for everyone.

Copying from one server to another seems like a niche use-case, maybe we should just let you download and upload in the showterm tool, and then you guys have a copy command.

@ConradIrwin
Local Capture might be useful when record some bussiness code to the remote co-workers

🤔

That would do the trick.

I've been using showterm a lot this pandemic year for exactly @alingse's use case. I feel a little bad leaning my paid work so heavily on it, too, but it's just so much more useful and tightly done than Zoom or https://asciinema.org/ or using the mac or gnome screenrecorders.

I also want more control over the files though. Personally, I don't need showterm --list, but I would like to be able to store session as regular files, say *.scriptreplay? *.showterm (themselves just zip files)?,

• saving a .zip of the script and timing files before or instead of uploading (so that they can be archived and reviewed by scriptreplay)
• prompting about if we want to upload the file or not
• uploading after-the-fact (showterm upload ...)
• downloading that .zip from the website
  • I can extract it from the javascript but my teammates can't; it'd be nicer if this was just built-in.

@kousu I'd absolutely accept changes so that downloading a zip works (by just adding .zip to the end of the URL?)

I'd prefer to not prompt by default (but happy to have local saving as an option so you could do showterm -o tutorial-3.zip or similar, then showterm --upload tutorial-3.zip).

(P.S. One problem I ran into with your previous commit is that showterm.io is on an unsupported heroku stack, and upgrading that requires upgrading (at least) the version of ruby (but probably also more things..). So while I'd love to deploy a new version, we need to do some work and testing to make that happen. (Maybe time to rewrite in go? :D))

You're right, -o is better than prompting. And .zip on the end of the url is super, that's genius.

(It's only been, what, a decade? Enough time for a language to fade away I guess :P)
