To make the standby use restore_command to do that, you have to specify something like scp in archive_command or set up the shared directory (e.g., using NFS server). But I don't want to use both because they make the installation complicated (e.g., I don't want to register the ssh key with no password to use scp the WAL files from the master to the standby. I don't want to purchase extra server for shared directory and set up NFS server). I believe that it's the same reason why you implemented the streaming backup tool.
