Pharo Success story - MultiCity
by Torsten Bergmann July 16, 2015

July 16, 2015

Another story from 2Denker is up: http://pharo.org/success/MultiCity Client seems to be done using Amber when I check the login page which was styled with Bootstrap. Server in Pharo with Nginx. I guess you use Mongo as DB (with Voyage or without). @Norbert/@Marcus: if possible can you share with us a few more technical details about the technologies/stack used. Also about size (LOC, users, nr of images) and pitfalls ... There is always something one can learn from the experience of others.

Openstreetmap on Pharo
by Hilaire July 16, 2015

July 16, 2015

Hi, In a few weeks I will give a speech in Taiwan at NCHC[1] about Pharo, my intend is to present release 4. I already did speeches there in the past about Pharo, but I have a hard time to raise interest to the point people want to jump in. But I hope to have an angle this time because NCHC recently offers a server and the hosting for an openstreetmap tile server (the first in Asia by the way), and there is high interest here in Taiwan about OSM related stuff. I read here, job has been done with Roassal and OSM, but it is not clear for me how to get in using OSM within Pharo. I am particularly interested in providing an interactive demo where live programming shows its value. I have found these pointers bellow. I am interested by any additional tips and url, and particularly the compatibility with Pharo4. https://github.com/fstephany/OSMMaps http://pillarhub.pharocloud.com/hub/ThierryGoubier/5y08m9uu71o8i7a35ijwr766p Thanks Hilaire [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Center_for_High-Performance_Computing -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu http://google.com/+DrgeoEu

[ANN] GT presentations now available as a Spec widget
by Johan Fabry July 16, 2015

July 16, 2015

Hi all, thanks to help from the GT guys Andrei and Alexei here at ESUG15 I am now happy to announce that Spec can now play together nicely with GT presentations :-) Concretely: I have implemented a new Spec ComposableModel called GlamourPresentationModel that acts as a small wrapper around any presentation of Glamour (i.e. any subclass of GLMPresentation). With this, you can use as a widget in your Spec UI such cool things like - The GT Inspector - The Playground - The Browser GlamourPresentationModel is a very small class that is easy to use, with just one API method for its configuration. By default it opens a Playground, but you can configure it to open any GLMPresentation subclass. Here are 2 examples: "open a playground" GlamourPresentationModel new openWithSpec. "open an inspector on 42" |ui| ui := GlamourPresentationModel new. ui presentationClass: GTInspector startOn: 42. ui openWithSpec The GlamourPresentationModel is currently in my Playground repository on Smalltalkhub. ( http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~jfabry/Playground/packages/Spec-Glamour ) There is also an example UI called GlamourPMExample that shows how to use it. I tried it with Pharo 4 but not yet with Pharo 5. I will push on its integration in Pharo 5 in a few months. Please use it and tell me how it works out for you! ---> Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org <--- Johan Fabry - http://pleiad.cl/~jfabry PLEIAD and RyCh labs - Computer Science Department (DCC) - University of Chile

Request to put up my under-development application for automated build
by Jigyasa Grover July 15, 2015

July 15, 2015

Hello All :) I am a newbie in Pharo and have started to build my first application i.e. an offline text search application namely *searchQuick* which returns the list of file titles from the pre-loaded text files present in the resource folder when a string is searched for. You all are welcome to fork the code (https://github.com/jig08/sQuick_new) , try the infancy application and send in suggestions. Further, I would like to request to put up my application on the CI Automated Build server for Pharo. Kindly guide me on how to go about it.

PharoJS Documentation
by Noury Bouraqadi July 15, 2015

July 15, 2015

Hi, I started a documentation on how to use PharoJS at http://car.mines-douai.fr/pharojs/. So, far it covers: - download/ install, - evaluate expressions in the PharoJS workspace and see them perform on a web browser - running tests in Pharo (e.g. using the plain TestRunner) that perform some code on a web browser. The assertions are performed in the Smalltalk world :-) - exporting javascript file from Smalltalk classes to make a standalone app. Noury -- http://twitter.com/#!/NouryBouraqadi http://car.mines-douai.fr/noury

Coverage tools
by Torsten Bergmann July 15, 2015

July 15, 2015

When in Java I use EclEmma - an eclipse plugin where once can see the coverage down to the code editor: http://www.eclemma.org/images/screen.png I know there is Hapao: http://hapao.dcc.uchile.cl/ but is there a Pharo coverage visualization down to the method level as in EclEmma? Thanks T.

PharoJS
by Andy Burnett July 15, 2015

July 15, 2015

Is anyone experimenting with PharoJS? I managed to get the page with the core javascript functions to load - as localhost - but I couldn't get any of the actions in the workspace to have any effect on the web browser console. Has anyone had any success? Cheers Andy

Searching for similiar projects
by Jigyasa Grover July 15, 2015

July 15, 2015

Hello :D I am a newbie in Pharo and have started to build my first application i.e. an offline text search application namely *searchQuick* which returns the list of file titles from the pre-loaded text files present in the resource folder when a string is searched for. You all are welcome to fork the code (https://github.com/jig08/sQuick_new) , try the infancy application and send in suggestions. Further, I would like to request to put up my application on the CI Automated Build server for Pharo. I have already registered on INRIA and my request to join 'Pharo Contribution' has also been approved. Further, I am searching for similiar projects as sQuick so that it would be easier to put for automated build using the existing build. It would be great if someone could guide me how to find similiar projects or exisiting templates. Regards Jigyasa

(Kind of urgent) Phratch: operators don't work at all on last verion!
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas July 14, 2015

July 14, 2015

Hi all, Today we started to use phratch to a group of people without much of any experience with computer programming. The idea is to have a workshop today and tomorrow start with more symbolic and abstract approach using Pharo and give them a taste of the several levels of programmig and exploration this environment provides. But my main problem is that operators dont work on Phratch. We get a MNU as soon as we select the operators button which is a real stoper for any advance stuff. We're using the currently available package from the download page. Can somebody help me on this? Also: Â¿How can we erase a line drawn with the pencil on the background? I will be sharing more questions as they come. Thanks, Offray
