Oct. 9, 2013

Dear Pharo users on Ubuntu, there was a problem with the VM embedded in the ubuntu packages on the PPA (https://launchpad.net/~pharo/+archive/stable/) This bug has been solved! The bug was in the VM source code which has been fixed by upstream.

[ANN] Bootstrap for Seaside3 project (Release 0.1.0)
by Torsten Bergmann Oct. 7, 2013

Oct. 7, 2013

Hi, there are various frameworks out there helping you to ease common tasks in web development. One of them is Bootstrap (http://getbootstrap.com) that is used more and more to easily style web sites and web applications. We had wrappers for Bootstrap supporting Seaside in the past already: - the TwitterBootstrap project on SS3 from the Seaside team - the TBootstrap project from Gaston Dall Oglio Unfortunately these projects are not up to date with the latest Bootstrap version, not covered by tests, had no docu or examples, no CI, ... To provide better support for Bootstrap and Seaside3 development I created a fresh project called "Bootstrap for Seaside" (or "Bootstrap" for short). This new project is - nearly feature complete regarding components (Nav, Navbar, Jumbotron, Buttons, Alarms, Layouts, ...) - uses the latest Bootstrap libraries (http://getbootstrap.com) - covered by more than 160 tests - completed with an example browser that shows Bootstrap components and according Smalltalk code - available at STHub (http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~TorstenBergmann/Bootstrap) - documented (see mentioned project website on STHub) with docu support for PharoOnlineHelp and catalog - controlled by CI (https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/Bootstrap/) - easily loadable using config browser in Pharo 2.0 Attached are some screenshots from the project itself. More details can be found in the more docu at the project site on SmalltalkHub. Just scroll down at the info page provided there. You can easily load it in a fresh Pharo 2.0 as "Bootstrap" from the config browser. It loads Seaside3 as a dependency. After loading evaluate ZnZincServerAdaptor startOn: 8080 to start the webserver and go to http://localhost:8080/bootstrap to browse the samples. Feel free to use it for your next Pharo/Seaside/Bootstrap based web project and thanks in advance for any contribution you may give to the project in the future. Bye T.

Halos in pharo 3
by Andy Burnett Oct. 4, 2013

Oct. 4, 2013

I have two related questions: 1. how does one bring up halos in the 3.0 image. I tried Cmd + Shift + two fingers (on my track pad), but nothing happens. 2. How does one get rid of the Pomodoro timers? I assumed I could use Halos - see question 1 - but maybe there is a better way? Cheers Andy

Re: [Pharo-users] Halos in pharo 3
by Andy Burnett Oct. 4, 2013

Sean said <<Traditionally in Squeak, you could cycle through Morphs in either direction - from the topmost (e.g. a TextMorph in the Window) which is Alt-Shift-click on Mac, or bottom most parent (e.g. from the Window) which on Mac is Alt-click. Some people found the non-Shift version troublesome because they accidentally brought up halos. So in Pharo by default, you can Alt-click. You can also re-enable the Alt-Shift-click direction via the settings browser: (World Menu->System->Settings). Text search on halos and then enable "Cycle both directions">> Thanks, that worked perfectly. Cheers Andy

[ANN] Mustache templates
by Norbert Hartl Oct. 4, 2013

Oct. 4, 2013

I like to announce my smalltalk port of mustache templates. Mustache is a popular templating engine that is supported in many programming languages. I know at least that is quite common to be used in javascript but see at the languages it supported yourself [1]. A basic usage is something like (just paste it to workspace after loading Mustache): --- templateString := 'Hello {{name}}, this is {{templatingEngine}} for {{recipient}}. {{# cheerUp }} Have fun! {{/ cheerUp }}'. context := { 'name' -> 'pharo community'. 'templatingEngine' -> 'mustache'. 'recipient' -> 'you'. 'cheerUp' -> true } asDictionary. templateString asMustacheTemplate value: context --- Context objects can be Dictionaries or regular objects. It is also easy to feed via json e.g. using NeoJSON templateString asMustacheTemplate value: (NeoJSONReader fromString: â¦) I wrote a blog article about it and the usage in smaltlalk on my blog [2]. The code I have just released on smalltalkhub [3]. Documentation about the syntax to use is available under [4]. To load it do Gofer it smalltalkhubUser: 'NorbertHartl' project: 'Mustache'; configurationOf: 'Mustache'; loadStable. The code is not very old so there might be bugs (this is supposed to be the standard disclaimer). If you find something not working as expected just drop me a note. The engine produces at the moment more whitespaces than you can see in the examples. I need to figure out the rule first and will release a new version. Nevertheless I consider it useful by now. But you decide and hopefully give me feedback.
