Eliminating Node.js SDK-CLI with OS SImulator improvements

If the OS Simulator was given a menu option, with the ability to

  •  load an FBA file from disk
  • make a screenshot to disk
  • select a view of the terminal log file

then there would be less or no need for the complex SDK-CLI installation and other steps to complete a node.js install.

 

Also removing the line

"@fitbit/sdk-cli": "^1.7.3"

 

from the package.json, reduces the number of files in the Node_modules from >16,000 to around 10,000 and disk space from > 128 mb to <100 mb which saves in setup time.

The OS Simulator menu option should also have the ability to install clocks or apps from the Online Gallery in order for developers to verify that their current production projects are working as intended and to test any clocks or apps without having to install them on a watch.

 

The menu option would help developers considerably.

Yes @Guy_ , your suggestions make perfect sense and fitbit would consider implementing them IF they really want to provide a usable CLI solution for app development.
