I use a Python Jupyter Notebook to access databases on a remote server, connected via SSH (Remote-SSH Extension).
When I try pandas.read_csv() I can only access files that are on the remote server, but I want to read local files.
How can I access my local files using the Python code?
What path must I use or what command is necessary?
os.getcwd() shows only remote path
Thanks for your help! This is my very first question here.
Seems that what I was trying to do is not possible, according to this: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/706
Having a mixed workspace would require that a workspace extension can be active both locally and remotely. Currently an extension can only be active once, either locally or remotely. So this is currently not possible and we have no plans to support this. The recommendation is to have separate windows open for the local and remote workspace.
You can mount your local file system to the remote server using the steps in the given link.
After mounting, you can access the local drive using jupyter notebook using the address for the mount point. Please Note: In this case, your local machine needs to have a fixed IP.
