If I make edit and save a file - in either Server Connect or App Connect - in most cases I would just like that one file to be saved and/or uploaded to the server (depending on what target is selected). There may be other files I’m working on, or test files or various other files I don’t won’t to put on the server. As it is, if I save a single file in Server Connect (even if I haven’t made changes to that file), a number of files are uploaded and several thousand log file lines are generated. Similarly, if I save an App Connect file, every Wappler file on the server is checked and other (‘user’) files may be uploaded or replaced.
I appreciate that the current setup may work fine for most people most of the time. I would just like the option to have more control - ie to save only the file I select. Perhaps this could be an Options setting.
In relation to this, I think it would be useful to have a file upload button in Server Connect as well as App Connect (if the above change were implemented).
This was prompted by the current problem I’m having where saving an action file breaks the website. However I wasn’t happy about the level of automation before and was slightly nervous about having the target set to remote anyway, not being very clear about the implications of saving a file. For the time being I’ve disabled the remote target and shall use an FTP program.
