Re: [Pharo-project] Smalltalk Labs Browser

what I would like to see is how a good new set of (and not traditional) code browsers developed to get efficient on coding a webbrowser could have impact on our old tools in our image. I think especially in terms of widgets the adequate use of accordion or other js widgets. I think that if we get a nice environment on a web browser we have people building cool new widgets for image side coding. I would really like to see alternate ways of browsing code like hopscotch or (to a certain extent whisker). Frankly I feel in jail with some of the tools we use. I want more and better. So I'm really curious to see how our tools will evolve because we must change.

Tx Tx Tx did you publish also the configuration in the ODBC package because we should think oo and put configurations close to the code.

[Pharo-project] Loading OB in 1.2
by Igor Stasenko Nov. 2, 2010

Nov. 2, 2010

Thanks, Doru, he gave me the link to script which loads dev tools: http://github.com/renggli/builder/blob/master/scripts/omnibrowser.st i tried it in latest 1.2, and it fails at 'OB-Shout' . Error related to duplicated 'styler' ivar in PluggablleWhatever stuff. I skipped loading everything related to shout, and it was loaded successfully. But then i found that TextEditor is missing #model accessor, which prevents shortcuts from working. After adding it, it looks like i got working OB. Too bad, without Shout it has no syntax highlighting nor autocompletion :( -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

[Pharo-project] JSON - Accessing Pharo on Twitter from within Pharo
by Torsten Bergmann Nov. 2, 2010

Nov. 2, 2010

First load: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gofer new renggli: 'omnibrowser'; package: 'JSON'; load. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- then evaluate: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |hashToFollow json root subs| hashToFollow := 'pharo'. json := Json readFrom: ('http://search.twitter.com/search.json?rpp=50&result_type=recent&lang=all&q=', hashToFollow) asUrl retrieveContents contentStream. subs := json results collect: [:each | HelpTopic title: (each at: 'created_at' ifAbsent: '') contents: (each at: 'text' ifAbsent: '') ]. root := HelpTopic named: 'Pharo on Twitter'. root subtopics: subs. HelpBrowser openOn: root ------------------------------------------------------------------------- gives mixed results (not all related to pharo project) If I try hashToFollow := 'pharoproject' it returns nothing while the twitter channel is accessible at http://twitter.com/pharoproject? Anyone know the correct hashToFollow for Pharo project only contents? Thx T. -- Neu: GMX De-Mail - Einfach wie E-Mail, sicher wie ein Brief!

Hi there, there is work going on for further development of the ODBC package (the one that was original developed by Diego Gomez Deck) in http://squeaksource.com/ODBC/ For easier access from within Pharo/Squeak I wrote a Metacello configuration: ------------------------------------------------------------- Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfODBC'; load.
