Description

I want 2 different environments, for local and remote.

I have this in my platformio.ini :

[env:remote]
upload_port = /dev/ttyUSB1
monitor_port = /dev/ttyUSB1

[env:local]
upload_port = COM4
monitor_port = COM4

By using the remote monitor (or upload, but it behaves the same), the port used will be the first specified (in this case, /dev/ttyUSB1).

It seems that upload_port and monitor_port aren't taken into account properly when using remote actions. It works when using monitor on the current machine however : the right port is used.

Can you please fix the remote actions so that it uses the ports I specify in the environments ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how remote upload and monitor actions retrieve environment specific configuration (upload port, monitor port) and ensure they respect the per environment settings instead of defaulting to the first environment's values.
