PetitParser question parsing HTML meta tags

by PAUL DEBRUICKER

This is kind of a "I'm tired of thinking about this and not making much progress for the amount of time I'm putting in question" but here it is: I'm trying to parse descriptions from HTML meta elements. I can't use Soup because there isn't a working GemStone port. I've got it to work with the structure: <meta name="description" content="my description"> and <meta name="Description" content="my description"> but I'm running into instances of: <meta http-equiv="description" content="my description"> and <meta http-equiv="Description" content="my description"> and am having trouble adapting my parsing code (such as it is). The parsing code that addresses the first two cases is: parseHtmlPageForDescription: htmlString | startParser endParser ppStream descParser result text lower str doubleQuoteIndex | lower := 'escription' asParser. startParser := '<meta name=' asParser , #'any' asParser , #'any' asParser. endParser := '>' asParser. ppStream := htmlString readStream asPetitStream. descParser := ((#'any' asParser starLazy: startParser , lower) , (#'any' asParser starLazy: endParser)) ==> #'second'. result := descParser parse: ppStream. text := (result inject: (WriteStream on: String new) into: [ :stream :char | stream nextPut: char. stream ]) contents trimBoth. str := text copyFrom: (text findString: 'content=') + 9 to: text size. doubleQuoteIndex := 8 - ((str last: 7) indexOf: $"). ^ str copyFrom: 1 to: str size - doubleQuoteIndex I can't figure out how to change the startParser parser to accept the second idiom. And maybe there's a better approach altogether. Anyway. If anyone has any ideas on different approaches I'd appreciate learning them. Thanks for giving it some thought Paul

Then Pharo will show debugger to investigate and fix the problem. This is called dynamic typing and I guess JS will do something similar. So I wonder why you need custom error when program breaks types.

Re: [Pharo-users] type checking in Smalltalk

Hi Marc, > Reading this, I realized, that I never saw such type-checking in Pharo production code. So the question is, what are recommended design principles for that problem in Smalltalk? Do you use what is called duck typing? I have carefully studied the topic of type checking in the past. I came to the conclusion that type errors are too easy to fix to justify a support in the language. There are always exceptions, for example, if you wish to provide guaranties and proof on some aspect of the language, interesting to hardware driver developers and critical software developers. In that case, you may want to have type annotation, maybe. But all in all, static type checking is more a distraction than a real benefit for practitioners in my opinion. Cheers, Alexandre

Normally I'm not interested in what an object is, but what it can do. So a test on #respondsTo: can tell me if the object knows how to do something. In smalltalk, I can add methods to existing classes, so there are a lot of extension methods on Object isXYZ, returning false. Morph returns true to isMorph, so all subclasses of Morph can be recognized that way. Instead of adding a test method, there are also empty implementations or ones that return self or an appropriate null-value. Stephan

Current status on that feature is: - BaselineOf and all related packages save in one commit can be done with GitFileTree. I added an API for that and made a few experiments by organising and saving projects via the Metacello registry (with GUI support). I rolled back that extension in AltBrowser and I will reimplement it soon in a different, better way. - Iceberg ? - ConfigurationOf ? The approach of storing a configurationOf inside a meta repository makes implementing that harder. Now, I think the tools would probably be able to get that to work over Monticello with few changes, but they are a tad complex to implement, as in loading two different configurationsOf and resolving related packages (without loading them), and then changing the diff viewer to project all differences between all classes of the two groups of packages. One thing to remember is that complete packages, in multiple versions, can be loaded simultaneously as Monticello models without disrupting the code currently loaded and active in the image, as when you "browse" a Monticello package on disk.

Thanks for helping me understand! You can only directly diff the Configurations themselves. I fairly sure you can't auto-diff the packages loaded by each configuration. This is a missing feature. It would be nice to have something like the merge-diff, but there are probably other priorities. Maybe the new git workflow will open some possibilities?? cheers -ben

type checking in Smalltalk

by Marc Hanisch

Hello, I have a question which is more related to software engineering than to Pharo, but I hope that someone can give me an useful hint ;-) In Pharo By Example 5, Page 308, in the Chapter "Introspection", it is written: "Although these features (type inspection) are especially useful for imple- menting development tools, they are normally not appropriate for typical applications. Asking an object for its class, or querying it to discover which messages it understands, are typical signs of design problems, since they violate the principle of encapsulation." It is advised not to use the message isKindOf: in applications. I do understand that it is not a good idea to do different operations depending on the kind of an object in one method. But in my (Javascript) production code I do a lot of checking if an argument to a function is "instanceof" someObject. When it is not the expected type of object, an exception is thrown. I do this to ensure that someone (=another developer) does not by accident passes a wrong type into my method. Reading this, I realized, that I never saw such type-checking in Pharo production code. So the question is, what are recommended design principles for that problem in Smalltalk? Do you use what is called duck typing? Thanks for any advice :-) Marc

Morphic component to display images/pictures

by Peter Uhnak

Hi, do we have a Morphic/Brick/whatever component for displaying pictures/images in Pharo? The "best" I found was GTInspector extension on PNG files, which provides scrollbars, however I would like to also have: 1) zooming with mousewheel (now it scrolls vertically) 2) dragging the image around to scroll both vertically and horizontally (now I have to use manually the scrollbars) 3) ideally also buttons like "show 1:1 size", "show fit to window" Do we have something like that? Thanks, Peter

Re: [Pharo-users] diff'ing with metacello

by Siemen Baader

Below is a fileout of 'ConfigurationOfPharoJS'. I download new releases of PharoJS as they become available. Recently I found a regression - a method 'PjApplication class >> playgroundWithoutLaunch' did not work any more. What I wanted to do was to revert the whole project to an earlier version until the method worked again - then look for the code that has been changed between releases and find the bug. In practice, even the earliest version (version 1.0 - method #version10) did have the bug and I could not roll back the project to earlier release states because there is no metadate for them. But I'd still like to learn how to do it, so let's just say I want to compare version 1.2 and 1.3: version12: spec <version: '1.2' imports: #('0.1-baseline' )> version13: spec <version: '1.3' imports: #('0.2-baseline' )> I hope this makes sense.
