Hi list,
We want to develop a headless client in python using pyx2go.
The application should have the following features:
- All parameters except for the password should come from a profile
stored in the users home directory- The user should have the possibility to enter the password, the
username and the server, where the username and the server should be
retrieved from the profile- The client should support clientside printing as the x2go client
- The home directory (or another directory) on the clientside
should be mounted with fuse on the serverside- The client should start XMing with all appropriate parameters
- It should be possible to start an application from the server
side by starting a file. So if a file called test.doc exists and
that file is started, MS-Word should start.- The profile should be maintained by a separate program (nice gui
application)We've got the demo.py running. However when it ends, the session is
terminated correctly, but a thread remains active. Probably the
thread should be joined with the mainprogram.Could anyone help us with documentation on the use of fuse and the
way commands are passed from client to server vice-versa?
Just last weekend I (with Jörgs great help) I have started working on
such a headless client implementation.
The working title for the project is pyx2go-cli and once there is some
stability within it, it will be available with Jörgs python-x2go
library on GitHub. There will also be Debian/Ubuntu packages available.
If you have the possibility of funding such development work (and
thus, speed it up), I (and probably also Jörg) will be happy to
provide you with support and code.
Best, Mike Gabriel
