Seems that Pharo is a magnet for this kind of project. I've been writing one as well and using it to organize my research notes. Does anyone working on personal info mgmt tools want to talk offline? I expect we're running into some of the same issues, both conceptual and technical. Evan

Aggregation framework in MongoTalk?
by phil＠highoctane.be Feb. 18, 2019

Feb. 18, 2019

Is there anyone using the aggregation framework of MongDb through MongoTalk? It uses the aggregate() command, so I was wondering if this could be supported out of the box or if there is a need for an additional Operation. TIA Phil

Hi, I'm getting this error while trying to prototype some interface with Spec on Moose 6.0: MessageNotUnderstood: ToolDockingBarMorph>>popUpOwner it happens anytime that I'm using displaying a MenuModel and I go to the menu items. I imagine that the menu item is complaining about a lacking pop up message. How can I solve this? Thanks, Offray

#ast vs. #parseTree
by Sean P. DeNigris May 9, 2018

May 9, 2018

Why does CompiledMethod understand both? They are in the same protocol, produce the same kindOf result, and neither has a method comment! :/ (Pharo 4.0) ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/ast-vs-parseTree-tp4893074.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

About validation
by StÃ©phane Ducasse March 11, 2018

March 11, 2018

Hi I read the chapter on validation of the mentoring course book of andres valloud. http://www.lulu.com/fr/fr/shop/andres-valloud/a-mentoring-course-on-smallta… And I love this extension of SUnit. I loved the idea when I saw it for the first time at Lugano (presentation of Leandro Caniglia). I encourage everybody to read it. Now does anybody implemented in Pharo the SUnit extension? I would like to play with it and eventually write a chapter on it for the next book. The idea is so good. Stef

A Suggested Promotion
by Richard Eng Jan. 1, 2017

Jan. 1, 2017

I have a suggestion for future Smalltalk advocates... The advent of Pi Zero last month is an interesting opportunity. This is a very, very cheap Raspberry Pi. Anyone can afford it. I'm thinking of kids, in particular. What if we could get kids to delve into Squeak or Pharo (Squeak is better optimized for Raspberry Pi) via the Pi Zero? A competition could be set up in various countries, such as Canada, Britain, Australia, Japan, etc., where the best student submission for a Smalltalk-based Pi Zero application would win a small scholarship prize (say, $500). A panel of judges in each country would decide the winner. The contest would be much less ambitious than my now-defunct Canadian Smalltalk Competition <https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1520902870/canadian-smalltalk-competit…> (CSC). Less control (no real need to prevent cheating). Easier to raise the prize money. The nice thing is that it would be a multi-national promotion (it's tough getting a national school competition like CSC going in other countries). Of course, because it's less ambitious, we can expect to reach fewer kids. Instead of thousands, probably more like hundreds. I could be totally wrong on this; I could be totally surprised! I might even come out of retirement <https://medium.com/@richardeng/today-is-the-first-anniversary-of-smalltalk-…> to offer some creative services (eg, promotional graphics, websites, etc.). ð Anyway, it was just an interesting thought I had. Don't know if it stands up to scrutiny. Cheers, Richard

[ANN] Introspect web content (Soup with some GT extensions)
by Torsten Bergmann Nov. 8, 2016

Nov. 8, 2016

Hi, I added a few GT inspector extensions to Soup and cleaned up a little bit. Released as a new version 1.8 of Soup - you will find easily in Catalog for Pharo 5 or by opening Spotter and entering "Soup" to load. As the attached screenshots shows you now have a nice way to introspect the structure of a web page as a tree in the inspector or see the attributes of tags/nodes in a table. Thx T.

IIS and Pharo web service solutions
by Robert Kuszinger Aug. 25, 2016

Aug. 25, 2016

Hello! 1)--------------------- I've successfully worked out how to operate Pharo / Seaside web services behind IIS on Windows Server 2008 (R2) but maybe works on later editions as well. I could summarize it in a "HOWTO" if there is interest or even post it to include in a documentation. (Pharo as a service on Windows, IIS modules to install, how to make it and how to configure proxy / url rewrite) 2)--------------------- Since failed finding an usable binary for nginx uploader module on windows I worked out a method (not really a piece of software) how to use NeatUpload (.NET solution) together with Pharo/Seaside to receive hundreds of megabytes of uploads on Windows servers. If there is interest I'm also ready to document and post it here or somewhere. Please sign any interest here or in private email and then I'll create the docs. Thanks for the many help from many of you during the last two months :) Robert

Generating custom classes based on attributes from XML Document
by Peter UhnÃ¡k Aug. 17, 2016

Aug. 17, 2016

I have a XML like this <packagedElement xmi:type="uml:Class" xmi:id="EAID_4A" name="DCEdge" isAbstract="true">  </packagedElement> <packagedElement xmi:type="uml:Association" xmi:id="EAID_46">  </packagedElement> and I would like to generate UmlClass and UmlAssociation classes for this. I could use XMLPluggableElementFactory, however that only allows me to specify the target class only on the element's name, such as doc := (XMLDOMParser on: someXML) nodeFactory: (XMLPluggableElementFactory new elementClass: GenericElement; handleElement: 'packagedElement' withClass: UmlPackagedElement) parseDocument. However I need better granularity, because I would like to have a different class for 'packagedElement[xmi:type="uml:Class"]' and different class for 'packagedElement[xmi:type="uml:Association"]'. Of course I could use double visitors (so use the Pluggable stuff to get UmlPackagedElement) and then make another pass on it to get the final classes, however I would prefer to have to wanted class directly without the need to go through intermediate representation. Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Peter
