View file tree in Sublime when using Cyberduck

1

I use Cyberduck to open remote files and edit them via Sublime on my local machine.

I want to be able to see the file tree of the remote system in the Sublime Text side bar. I've tried a few things but I'm stumped.

Is this possible to achieve using Cyberduck? If not, what is the simplest and fastest (in terms of setup time) way to achieve it?

Do you have Sublime configured as an external editor in Cyberduck? – Martin Prikryl – 2015-08-27T06:31:53.277

Yes, but it won't let me select "edit in Sublime" on a folder like you can do from osx. Cyberduck only lets me open files – Dsel – 2015-08-27T06:34:05.210

When you configure an external editor in Cyberduck (or any FTP/SFTP client), the Cyberduck downloads the edited file to a local temporary folder; runs the editor (Sublime) to open the local file; and re-uploads the edited file back to FTP/SFTP.

So the editor (Sublime) does not even know that the file comes from FTP/SFTP, let only be able to access the FTP/SFTP site to display the tree.

Though there are FTP/SFTP plugins for Sublime. If you use such plugin, you can work with remote FTP/SFTP files like there are local. You won't need to use Cyberduck.
