Use charm cloud as backend

Open jon4hz opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. From what I understand the code snippets are currently stored locally in a json file.

Describe the solution you'd like Instead of storing the snippets locally, you could add an option to use the charm cloud as backend. This would allow syncing the snippets across multiple computers.

Additional context This is such an awesome tool. 😄

This is a great idea! Altough I wonder if just syncing via a private git repository is enough? Do you need encryption for your snippets?

I am thinking about adding a way to sync with github/gitlab gists so you also would get revisions with your snippets, and could share them publicly.

Encryption isn't really required, it's more the convenience of the charm cloud that would be nice. I have a charm client installed on all my computers anyway and it would allow syncing the snippets without an additional login.

Direct integration for gists to share code is an amazing idea!
