How to install a snap remotely (over ssh) ?

[schwebo]

Good morning,

i currently playing arround the snap concept whith a VM ansctrlx sdk toolchaing. I can successfully buid snaps for ams and arm.

Ican add a snap via the webservice to my ctrlx Hardware. Ok so far so good. now i want directly install a snap from my VM to the Hardware , so i tried first do establisch a ssh connection from my VM to the ctrlx. But i think its no permitted:

Is there a way to install/updte snap remotly?

Thank you

In general the SSH connection is deactivated because of security reasons. See this thread for further information.

When you have activated SSH connection you can simply copy the .snap file to the ctrlX CORE and use command

snap install <snap file name>

The official way, that also the API of the web interface is using is the REST API see description of the package manager in Swagger:
