Hi phil yes I loved this idea. We got burned by that too. About pillar. The departure of Damien was not expected and it slows us quite a bit. We (mainly me helped with maxime) are working on - making the pillar core nicer - less dependencies - and with a small in image renderer :) We had fun with guille - In the pharo 60 version I started to clean the command-line. - merged many unmerged changes. But even with all the tests it is not easy.... I'm testing in addition with reall - book production - slides - html But it takes time and energy. I'm trying to remove the dependencies to magritte for example. Stef [image: Inline image 1] On Sat, May 6, 2017 at 9:30 AM, phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be> wrote:
For books, there is the docker-texlive thing from Damien that we looked into yesterday because TexLive was giving some headaches.
https://github.com/philippeback/docker-texlive
has my current thing for one to build a container with all prerequisites for TexLive and Pharo installed.
Idea is to clone the book repo on the host and get into an container to build the book.
There is a /work volume that can be mapped onto the host with the docker run's -v command.
Then just use ./download.sh in there to install Pharo and pillar in the container. Do not do that in the host or you'll end up with wrong versions (like my host is CentOS and the container is Ubuntu, even worse with host is macOS or Windows).
Then "make book" should give a book in build/ There is a "make wipeout" command that obliterates the build folder for good so you can start clean. No harm done on your files.
Will document more of this but woul dbe nice if someone could check this out too.
There is a script in base/ to build the docker image.

Hi Pharoers
You are lucky. The "Pharo booklet collection" edited by S. Ducasse is arriving...
Are you ready to read nice and focused booklets?
You can find at http://files.pharo.org/books/ in beta version:
Smacc: the Smalltalk Compiler Compiler by J. Brant, T. Goubier, J. Lecerf and S. Ducasse. Glorp: the Object Relational Mapper framework by E. Maringolo, N.
Pratt
and R. Withney
All the book material is hosted on https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates so you can contribute! Fix typos and propose new material.
We are planning a booklet on Magritte, Reddit in 10 cool classes, Voyage, and Mocking with BabyMock and Mocketry, XML (but we need a writer) and potentially PetitParser.
If you have material for a tutorial and you would like to be part of the Pharo Booklet Collection contact S. Ducasse.
