Creating workers on another machine

[lassepe]

I really like the philosophy of Malt.jl; thank you for this great package!

One limitation that I have encountered, however, is that I need to spawn a worker on a remote machine (i.e., a different "node"). Is it possible to do this with Malt.jl -- similar to how Distributed.addprocs accepts a list of IPs?

Hey @lassepe, thanks for the feedback!

This is not currently possible with Malt. But it is possible to add it to Malt, either in this package or outside of it (MaltSSH.jl). Take a look at the source code, and see how the other worker types are defined.

For now, I think Distributed is your best choice for SSH remote workers. Would you mind making a PR to the readme to clarify this under "Malt.jl vs Distributed"?
