Push File does not work in WSL

[jacktose]

If I open VS Code “in WSL” (with Remote - WSL), the Context Menu > Bitburner: Push File To The Game function has no effect. The file does not appear in game. If I open it “in Windows,” it works as advertised.

This is true whether the files are in the Windows or WSL filesystem.
I'm on Win 10 21H2, WSL2 with Ubuntu.

Is there any kind of debug logging I could check?

Per a reply in Discord, I tried "host": "0.0.0.0" in config.json. The log shows Starting http server on port 9990 - listening on 0.0.0.0, but the behavior described above does not change.

Hello,

With my PR (#21) you can define a remote hostname.

To work with your wsl, you have to define the result of the bash command echo $(hostname).local as hostname

@rclsilver Neat!

At first, I misread that as "my solution only works for names with .local at the end". But you were telling them what to run to print the value your solution needs.

Wouldn't the true DNS name (FQDN) be better? I mean, yeah it typically defaults to $(hostname).local. But it might differ...and I don't know off the top of my head the correct way to query that name in Linux.

It's annoying that text based names for computers are so complex still.
