pols desktop

Print a link to the sandbox's desktop in the browser

Print a link to the sandbox’s desktop in the browser. It works for 12 hours, also for reconnects, until the sandbox stops (a resume needs a new link) or the API key is revoked. Whoever has the link controls the desktop’s mouse and keyboard, so keep it secret. Its token is after the #, which browsers never send to a server; run this command again for a new link.

The page shows the desktop as video over WebRTC: smooth, and with a fraction of noVNC’s bandwidth once the picture moves. It falls back to noVNC when WebRTC cannot connect (say, where UDP is blocked), and switches either way. --novnc opens it with noVNC.

Usage

pols desktop SANDBOX [flags]

Examples

pols desktop web
pols desktop web --novnc

Flags

-h, --help    help for desktop
    --novnc   open the desktop with noVNC instead of the WebRTC viewer

The global flags work with this command too.
