Conditional CSV parsing

by HernÃ¡n Morales Durand

I used to use a CSV parser from Squeak where I could attach conditional iterations: csvParser rowsSkipFirst: 2 do: [: row | " some action ignoring first 2 fields on each row " ]. csvParser rowsSkipLast: 2 do: [: row | " some action ignoring last 2 fields on each row " ]. csvParser rowsWhere: [ " a condition block " ] do: [ : row | " ... " ]. csvParser rowsUpTo: 500000 do: [ " some action for rows up to 500000 " ]. csvParser rowsFrom: 2000 to: 5000 do: [ " some action for rows between 2000 to 5000 " ]. I want to replace the parser with NeoCSVReader, is this easily possible with the current implementation? Cheers, HernÃ¡n

Hi Esteban, I see GemStone logo in Flor poster. Could you explain? Does Flow support GemStone persistency besides NoSQL backends (as I thought Flow used). Do you have a common API for them or how do you manage that?

Some feedback on design I hope is useful. * Citizen - I like the perpendicular layout of "cite" and "zen". I never got it before that it was for citations. Nice branding. Maybe you could put a mortar board hat on top of the big "C" * Bloc - while considering copyright, maybe use a Tetris looking image for the background (http://tinyurl.com/ktpdvwg) or ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris#mediaviewer/File:NES_Tetris_Box_Front.j… ) * Flow - I find the text under the storm-trooper a bit negative and confusing. I don't think you mean to imply that you can't actually do that in Smalltalk, which is the impression I got. Maybe something like... "Smalltalk _was_ the HTML5 single-page platform I was looking for!" or just... Now the split of "consultants" over two lines grated, so I presumed to wordsmith your text... Flow's mission provides consultants, startups and software houses with a competitive full-stack Smalltalk framework for quick demo delivery with all the modern html5 features the market expects today (2014). Use tactically for gaining momentum with prospects and clients, then scale to full projects successfully delivered by kickass productive teams or individuals. Try to get the bottom of the github link text to align with the bottom of the stormtrooper image, so the whitespace beneath is a full width rectangle. You don't necessarily need to say what is the "front end" and what is the "back end". Deleting that text provides the opportunity to stack the three logos vertically, centred over the bottom left Qcode. Drop the "there" in "favourite there" so it doesn't overhang the Qcode. Move the dots of the eyes to be looking at the word "flow" through the whitespace left by moving the logos. (Sorry to go to town Sebastian, but I saw more potential.) HTH cheers -ben P.S. Sorry I don't have any of my own. I really should resurrect my masters project onto latest Pharo/Roassal.
