[Pharo-project] pharogenesis
Hi everyone. For those of you who followed my github repository for pharogenesis, please note that I moved it to github.com/pharogenesis/pharogenesis. I deleted the old repository. Cheers, Max
Hi Max, Can you tell us a little bit about pharogenesis? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/pharogenesis-tp3219872p3219893.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Hi Geert Pharogenesis is my bachelors thesis and I'm still not finished writing it. I'll let you know when I'm finished. In short: I'm hosting a git repository on github that contains the information from the changes and sources files starting at Squeak version 1 up to Squeak 4.0 and Pharo 1.0. The idea is to have a single point of entry to that information so that one could for instance find out about every change to a method back to its creation. To accomplish this I built an implementation of git called GitFS that uses Filesystem (it's based on GitForSqueak by Tony Garnock-Jones). You can find everything on Squeaksource: http://squeaksource.com/@gUSXOmZmeac-jt63/3ejuPFSA In that repo is also the code I use to generate the repository. Feel free to use the code and the repo but keep in mind that I'm still working on it. Max On 16.01.2011, at 11:38, Geert Claes wrote:

Very interesting, thanks by share. Germán. 2011/1/16 Max Leske <maxleske@gmail.com>:

Hi Max, I just watched your screencast on Vimeo and it does sound interesting. Could this be the foundation for an alternative for squeaksource? ps. Are you a kiwi? :) -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/pharogenesis-tp3219872p3220008.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Phew! That's quite a question... Right now I'd say no. But I guess the possibility is there (you might wan to check out Lukas' MonticelloGit package in my Squeaksource project. Not sure what work he's done there.). I'd be happy if my work would contribute into that direction but I don't have the resources at the moment to even think of it. Yeah, I'm sort of a kiwi :) Thanks for noticing. I lived there when I was a kid. On 16.01.2011, at 14:55, Geert Claes wrote:

I would love to have all these versions in a database and that we can query them :) On Jan 16, 2011, at 12:26 PM, Max Leske wrote:

I thought the same. But then I didn't think about database. Wouldn't that be possible if the environment SystemDictionary is in full use? Would it be possible to import a version into a SystemDictionary that reflects one version and that is accesible through the class via class history?. Or is this a rather stupid idea? Norbert

I'm not quite sure I can follow you. Do you want to import the full repository into the image? Or would you want SystemDictionary to hold simply the version of every method that was active *before* the current version? The first case is a no go I think. The packed repository is 101 MB big and there are still 11000 object files in addition to the pack and index file. The second case would definitely speed up the look up process but on the other hand it doesn't solve the problem that you need another mechanism in the background (like a DB) to hold further versions. Was that even close to what you wanted? Max On 17.01.2011, at 10:25, Norbert Hartl wrote:

I thought about the first one. I didn't think about resource restrictions at first. Just that the best case IMHO would be to have everything at hand extending only the MOP/query calls by a version dimension. It would then be possible to instantiate old objects and play with them. But then I was just day dreaming and it has less to do with what you are doing :) Norbert

Well, if we're dreaming anyway: My dream is to interact with a remote git repo. Because at the moment, to use Pharogenesis, one has to clone the repository and keep in mind to include all the tags and branches. It would be cool to have the network protocols integrated into GitFS. But that's a whole project on its own. Thanks for the interest anyway! Feels good to do something that might actually be used or lead to a real change. Max On 17.01.2011, at 17:35, Norbert Hartl wrote:
