John where do you sit with the idea that ghst could download/upload routes and redirects?
I understand they are probably still in the ‘labs’ area for a reason, but would be really helpful during site development to have programmatic access to this, in the same way that theme watching is really helpful.
interesting, yeah - could see that potentially - do you find you’re editing those often, or just during dev?
It’s mostly during site development, so I’m doing this against a local docker container at the same time as theme development. In the past this has been a kind of exploratory loop where I’m seeing what’s possible.
Sometimes the site has already gone live, so you might need to do a simultaneous theme upload, routes change, and navigation settings change. It would just be handy to batch these so you minimise any inconsistent state users might see.
I can’t run this on my Arch based server, it complains about credential storage, even when I pass the flag to use insecure storage

I haven’t tested on Arch - PR welcome!
