I'm open to suggestions for alternatives to the `?`:) Dale

No I have not used git tags so far, so I am not familiar with them. But I will keep in mind, I am considering not having versions at all, I find it a curious concept. Dale there is one thing I wanted to ask you , would it possible put in my github repo installation instructions for installing prerequisites ? For example I may use Thierry's SmaCC which I currently study to figure out how it works. I could add that to my ConfigurationOfEphestos that I have saved to Meta Repo of Pharo 4. But I dont want to touch that repo, ideally I would like to do this from the BaselineOfEphestos which is stored in my Ephestos github repo. Is that possible ? Can the baseline handle installation of dependencies and trigger other configurations ? Or is that a job only for Configurations ? I want not to have to maintain also meta repo 4, I just want to only to do all things in my github repo.

Re: [Pharo-users] Hijacking a Configuration for loading a Github Baseline

by Thierry Goubier

Hi Dale, The wildcards on tags, are they available on branch names as well? I wonder about the choice for ? and *, because: - In RE(s), ? is 0 or 1 occurence, * is 0 or any number of occurences. - In shells (bash?), ? is any one character, * is 0 or any number of characters. i.e. ? matches less than * in both cases. In Metacello, it is the reverse: 1.0.? matches more labels than 1.0.* Thierry 2015-01-27 15:57 GMT+01:00 Dale Henrichs <dale.henrichs(a)gemtalksystems.com>: > Kilon, > > One more point that you might find useful ...

Re: [Pharo-users] Hijacking a Configuration for loading a Github Baseline

by Dale Henrichs

Kilon, One more point that you might find useful ... If you use tags (i.e., v1.0.0, v1.0.1, v1.1.0), you can specify tag wildcards in the branch field of the github repository description. Using Thierry's example the following resolves the latest commit on the master branch (bleeding edge): github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:master Using a tag name, you can match the tagged commit: github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:v1.0.0 github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:v1.1.0 Using a tag wildcard you can specify the latest tag 1.0.*: github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:v1.0.* which matches v1.0.1, v1.0.2, whichever is latest, but not v1.0.2.1. To match the latest tag in the 1.0 family use 1.0.?: github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:v1.0.? which matches v1.0.1, v1.0.2 and v1.0.2.1. There are more examples here[1]. This feature was introduced in Metacello 1.0.0-beta.32.16[2].

Re: [Pharo-users] Help with video recordings at Fosdem needed

by Stephan Eggermont

Hi Udo, I've sent you an email. There will be two streams recorded from each room, one from the speakers laptop (needs to be vga) one from the camera. Camera operator only needs to point the camera in the right direction and press start/stop at the appropriate times. Organisation will either provide an application that can play both streams or mix them together somewhat like picture in picture. Last session is the introduction to smalltalk for non-smalltalk developers. That's hands-on and pair programming, not much need for video there. Stephan

beautiful it worked like a charm following your instructions , I now can brake my project to smaller ones, each one with each own github repo and use Baselines to load each one and still allow the user to load my Project in one single click from Configuration Browser.

Re: [Pharo-users] Hijacking a Configuration for loading a Github Baseline

by Thierry Goubier

Hi Kilon, a simple way to do that is to change your configuration so that it uses the baseline in your github. The SmaCC configuration for Pharo 4.0 is written in this way for the stable version. version204: spec <version: '2.0.4' imports: #('2.0-baseline')> spec for: #'pharo4.x' do: [ spec blessing: #stable; author: 'ThierryGoubier'; description: 'SmaCC Smalltalk Compiler Compiler for Pharo 4.0'. spec baseline: 'SmaCC' with: [ spec repository: 'github://ThierryGoubier/SmaCC:master' ]; import: 'SmaCC' ] Thierry 2015-01-27 10:08 GMT+01:00 kilon alios <kilon.alios(a)gmail.com>: > So I have a Configuration in the Meta repo of pharo 4 and 3 that loads the > latest version of my project Ephestos. > > However I have moved my development to github since I am very happy with > the workflow and since I discovered loading github repos via a baseline I > have little use for smalltalkhub. > > So my plan is this, keep the configuration in the meta repo so people and > me can install my project easily with one click via the wonderful simple > configuration browser , but I dont want anymore to load any versions with > it.
