[Pharo-project] Store your source code in the cloud using Amazon S3
For a long time, I had this idea that it would be a good idea to use Amazon S3 to store Smalltalk source code. A couple of weeks ago I decided to build and deploy a proof of concept. Have a look at: http://mc.stfx.eu Everything is explained on that page. Two of my repositories are publically available: http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents/ http://mc.stfx.eu/Zodiac/ You can create the relevant MCHttpRepository as usual: MCHttpRepository location: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents' user: '' password: '' MCHttpRepository location: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/Zodiac' user: '' password: '' If you are interested in testing this, let me know. I have some code to easily copy/sync between repositories. Sven -- Sven Van Caekenberghe http://stfx.eu Smalltalk is the Red Pill
marcus will love that. Do you have an idea of the price? Stef On Mar 9, 2012, at 7:33 PM, Sven Van Caekenberghe wrote:

Currently, I am beta testing this, if there is interest I might take this further. Please contact me, off list. Pricing would be either free for public accessible, fully open source licensed repositories with reasonable resource consumption (let's say < 100Mb storage, normal traffic), or some acceptable yearly amount for closed or commercial licensed repositories (total size < 1Gb, normal traffic) with basic support.

I like the idea to see if there is a commercial interest for such service.

I (wapict) am interested :) The only problem I see is the availability of the dependencies. If my code is reachable but I can't build an image because squeaksource/ss3 is down, it becomes less sexy ;) On 12/03/12 13:25, Stéphane Ducasse wrote

I understand (BTW, I have the same 'problem'), but this is another issue that no single repository can solve. I know that some teams use Metacello/Monticello so that they only ever deploy known and accessible fixed versions that were collected during development/deploy time. But I haven't done that myself.
