# This script let's you execute the Mac OS tool `ftxvalidator` on a remote host.
# Put it in your local `bin` as a drop in replacement.
# You must add your clients ssh public key to .ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine.
# Limitations:
#      The remote temporary filename is not generated very cleverly.
#      Don't use this in parallel with the same font filenames!

# Configuration for ssh and scp, please change accordingly:
SSH_PORT=22
REMOTE_LOGIN="username@remote_host"

# the last argument is the local file name
localfile=("${@:$#}")
base=`basename $localfile`
remotefile=/tmp/$base
# make an array form the arguments
ARGS=( "$@" )
# remove the filename
unset ARGS[${#ARGS[@]}-1]
# add the new file name
ARGS+=($remotefile)

scp -P $SSH_PORT $localfile $REMOTE_LOGIN:$remotefile
ssh -p $SSH_PORT $REMOTE_LOGIN "ftxvalidator ${ARGS[@]}"
exitstatus=$?
# cleanup
ssh -p $SSH_PORT $REMOTE_LOGIN "unlink $remotefile"

exit $exitstatus
