Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] XMLParser moved to GitHub

+1 Thanks for the effort. Not only migrated the code, but also polished it, documented, and setup a CI for it. Regards! Esteban A.

[ANN] Pastell moved to GitHub

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi, the STHub -> PharoExtras project "Pastell" (XPath-like DSL that makes navigation in XML DOM trees easier) was now moved from http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~PharoExtras/Pastell to https://github.com/pharo-contributions/XML-Pastell including the FULL HISTORY The old STHub repo was marked as obsolete - but is linking to the new one. I've also setup an CI job: https://travis-ci.org/pharo-contributions/XML-Pastell which is green for Pharo 7. Some cleanups, class comments and docu was applied as you can see from commit history. The new version is tagged in git as version 1.6.0 (with a moveable tag 1.6.x in case further hotfixes are required). You can load using Metacello new baseline: 'Pastell'; repository: 'github://pharo-contributions/XML-Pastell/src'; load. or from catalog in Pharo 7 or 8. Attached is current dependency graph. SIDE NOTE: ========== If you want to load Pastell and XPath [1] into the same image you will see in Iceberg they have colliding methods. Currently one can not share them since either XPath or Pastell tests are green depending on which one are used. This already was the case in the STHub project versions. I would suggest to only use Pastell or XPath until this could possibly be sorted out in the future. Bye T. [1] https://lists.pharo.org/pipermail/pharo-users_lists.pharo.org/2019-November…

If you want to load use Metacello new baseline: 'XMLParser'; repository: 'github://pharo-contributions/XML-XMLParser/src'; load. or try to load from catalog in Pharo 7 and 8. For referencing in own baselines I would suggest to use the 3.5.x tag line: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- xmlParserOn: spec spec baseline: 'XMLParser' with: [ spec loads: #('Core'); repository: 'github://pharo-contributions/XML-XMLParser:3.5.x/src' ]. spec project: 'XMLParser Tests' copyFrom: 'XMLParser' with: [ spec loads: #('Tests') ]; project: 'XMLParser Tools' copyFrom: 'XMLParser' with: [ spec loads: #('Tools') ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Currently there is a dependency on OrderPreservingDictionary project which will be thrown out in a later iteration (see attached graph and [1] for more details).

[ANN] OrderPreservingDictionary version 1.5.0

by Torsten Bergmann

After - BitmapCharacterSet [1] - XMLWriter [2] were moved to "pharo-contributions" GitHub I also did a pass on OrderPreservingDictionary: https://github.com/pharo-contributions/OrderPreservingDictionary which is now available as 1.5.0 version (and also as moving tag 1.5.x in case we provide further hotfixes). Basically cleanups were applied: - add missing comments - cleanup packaging - fixing typos - adding tools group for GT extensions - align CI definitions with projects like Seaside - CI green again (throwing out non-working Gemstone, volunteers welcomed) - fix catalog entry - deprecating http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~PharoExtras/OrderPreservingDictionary and http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Pharo/OrderPreservingDictionary You can load it using Metacello new baseline: 'OrderPreservingDictionary'; repository: 'github://pharo-contributions/OrderPreservingDictionary/src'; load or via catalog in Pharo 7 and 8. SIDE NOTE: ========== As of today XMLWriter still requires the "OrderPreservingDictionary" project as a dependency. OrderPreservingDictionary could be replaced by OrderedDictionary (same code, in the standard image) - I will do a pass on that later on. For now I focus on moving the XML stuff to GitHub first.

Re: [Pharo-users] transactional saving of images

by JuliÃ¡n Maestri

Agree, sounds like a good idea. As far as I know newer versions do not do this.
