[Pharo-project] We need a UI for Metacello/Loader
by Mariano Martinez Peck May 8, 2010

May 8, 2010

Hi folks. First of all let me clarify that all this email is though for new comers. I think Metacello is a wonderful project and that's why we are adopting it in Pharo. I know Metacello has it's own UI: http://code.google.com/p/metacello/wiki/MetacelloTools I also know there is Metaceller done by Doru. But I think that the features Esteban Lorenzano implemented in GoferProjectLoader are a MUST for a new comer. You can read them here: http://www.smallworks.com.ar/en/community/GoferProjectLoader Now...he doesn't plan to do a UI for that. My question if it would be a good idea to "extend" Metaceller or Metacello-OB so that to uses GoferProjectLoader features. Not necessary for Metacello 1.0 but maybe for 1.1. I think this is important, at least for Pharo. We don't have Universe neither SqueakMap anymore. Cheers Mariano

>In addition to the story around tests, Could you be a little bit more specific what your wishes are for using tests within the help documentation? It's still not clear to me what you expect here. >Torsten do you think we could use book.pharo-project.org to populate the help? Dont know how the pier books are implemented. Is it possible to access/parse the contents either on the server or directly online from a client image? If so then yes, as the following example demonstrates: |topic day url sub| topic := HelpTopic named: 'Last week on Squeak IRC'. 0 to: 7 do: [:index | day := (Date today subtractDays: index) printFormat: #(3 2 1 $. 1 2 2). url := 'http://tunes.org/~nef/logs/squeak/' , day. sub := HelpTopic title: day contents: (HTTPLoader default retrieveContentsFor: url) contents. topic addSubtopic: sub. ].

Hi Dale and others I would like to have a Pharo1.0 folder in the MetacelloRepository and ideally all the configurationOf... inside should work for Pharo 1.0. How can we proceed to get that. In the future we should also have a process to avoid that we get junk inside. any idea (I was thinking about an hudson server that would validate the configuration automatically) Stef
