Magritte
Hi
I am posting here instead of the Magritte group as the readership is high.
Is Magritte a robust enough package for an application with a large number
of forms and sub forms.
This is to be used in Pharo9 + Seaside +Willow.
I am putting this question as i do not see much mention of Magritte in
forums / discord of late, whereas by its description the package seems to
fit a space for applications with many domain objects and associated forms.
regards
Sanjay
cheers,
Sanjay

I use Magritte extensively (for almost all my projects), and have found it
irreplaceable, but nearly all in desktop apps. Maybe cross-post to the
Seaside list if you don't get an answer here...

Magritte is a chapter by itself in Seaside Book and also its mentioned in
Stephane's booklet that Seside is shipped with Magritte so I assume that
they are well integrated.
The next vital thing for me is if Willow+Bootstrap4 works well with
Magritte+Seaside (in Pharo9), then I have most of what I need

Sanjay,
I, too, am interested in Magritte. I'd appreciate it if you'd post whatever
you learn back to this list?
Thanks,
Russ

sure,
I will be putting queries on this thread which will also indicate where I
am,
you can always reach out anyways
the main objective now will be to get a Magritte based single form UI
working under Willow (BS4) for the appearance and then a master+detail form
I would be using MongoDB
Note: but i would be very slow

Hi Sean
May be we should update the Magrrite booklet. I never got the time to go over it.

I have only seen examples with seaside. Could you add any desktop app
example?
Thanks.

I can help. Yes, it is probably time. There have been lots of small
additions and changes. I also plan on doing Spec2 bindings as soon as P9 is
released. That might be a good time also because I'm swamped the next few
weeks...

Hi,
Examples in the magritte booklet "meta data at work ... " show pragmas
<magritte Description> (pg 2.2). Are the pragmas required since I don't
seem to have found any mention elsewhere (i.e. Lukas Renggli's papers, SAGs
seaside tutorial, Ramon Leons blogs ...)

Yes, annotating methods is how they are registered as part of the Magritte
description. There have been several non-backward-compatible Magritte
versions (currently on v. 3), so that may have been added later; note that
these methods should be on the instance side, unlike in the original
Magritte. Here is an example:
MyClass>>#descriptionHasMetacelloConfiguration
<magritteDescription>
^ MABooleanDescription new
priority: 250;
accessor: #hasMetacelloConfiguration;
beReadOnly;
beRequired;
yourself
p.s. happy to discuss here, but we also added a discussion place to the GH
repo: https://github.com/magritte-metamodel/magritte/discussions
p.p.s. there is a Magritte ML, but it doesn't get much traffic
Cheers,
Sean
