Unable to delete files over network on macOS

[TeapotNickS]

Description

I have a project loaded over a local network and I am not able to delete files, I get an error "Is Trash enabled on the volume where the files are stored"

It looks like the issue is simply that the networked machine doesn't have a trash bin however this means that any file that I need to delete needs to be done via Finder.

This seems very similar to #856 but I was asked to open a new bug for macOS by @50Wliu

Steps to Reproduce

1. Load project into Atom over a network drive
2. Delete a file
3. thats all the error will be shown
   

Expected behavior: [File should be deleted]

Actual behavior: [Error is shown.]

Reproduces how often: [100%]

Versions

Atom 1.16.0-beta0 x64
macOS Sierra 10.12.3

I believe on macOS Trash is enabled by the existence of a /.Trash-1000 folder. Are you able to create that folder using the following commands?

sudo mkdir /.Trash-1000
sudo chown user:user ./Trash-1000

(This actually looks like #345; if so, sorry for asking you to create a new issue. I didn't find #345 in time as it's missing the mac label.)

Not a problem, thanks for the fast replies.

When I delete files via Finder they get permanently deleted and not put in the trash (which is expected) If however you are on the server and delete a file they are put in the trash which makes sense to me.

I wouldn't actually want deleted files/folders put into a remote trash folder as someone would need to clear out the trash otherwise it could become a very large trash folder.

A good solution would be for Atom to try and move it to trash but if that isn't possible show a permanent delete button or something similar that allows the files to be deleted.

Perhaps this could be considered for the next version?

This solved the problem for me

@naterexw It doesn't work for me; anyone resolve this?

I still have this problem (and the linked solution has a broken link now)

I also have this problem (OS X 10.14.3, Atom 1.34.0)

Edit: After reading the linked Windows issue it appears there is no intention to fix this behaviour in the core editor. The workaround is to install the permanent-delete package.

Open your IDE cd into the file and then use rm -rf <your-file> to delete it through there. Yuu can use platformio-ide-terminal for this as well.
