Does lighthouse work on modern versions of pharo? I wanted to take a look at it but it gave me some problems in versions 8, and 6. Regards, Martin

Help! Iceberg just stopped working!
by Russ Whaley April 4, 2020

April 4, 2020

I did a commit last night to GitHub - I checked, it's there. Today when I tried to load iceberg I get the attached error (see screenshot). The libraries from last night's commit/push are still there - but Iceberg says it can't find them... and refuses to load so that I could maybe delete the reference and then add it back (something I have to do quite often as the iceberg/github connection gets disconnected every couple of days or so). Can anyone tell me where to start looking? Where it says on the error - that it can't find my files at a certain location... the 2nd screenshot - is those files at that location!... Thanks!

Iceberg problems...
by Russ Whaley April 4, 2020

April 4, 2020

I don't know how to respond to a previous message I've sent (without having a response from someone else appear in my email!)... I got my Iceberg problems solved by deleting my repository and starting over. I don't know why I had to do this, but it was a 60 second fix, once I decided to go down that route. I've had to do this probably 5-6 times over the past month. All other times have been due to (at least in my observation) to the image hanging - where I can't <cmd-.>. I don't whether there is a top secret file inside each repository - or the folders are timestamped, or whatever, but my repository is now back up and running. Thanks! -- Russ Whaley whaley.russ(a)gmail.com

Hi, As teachers and students are confined home, there are some needs of tooling for distance learning. Did any of you worked on generating Google Form with Pharo? Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

[ANN] Pharo-Spreedsheet on GitHub
by Torsten Bergmann April 4, 2020

April 4, 2020

Hi, I just moved "Spreadsheet" from SmalltalkHub (http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~TorstenBergmann/Spreadsheet) to a community owned location at GitHub ("https://github.com/pharo-contributions/Pharo-Spreadsheet"). If I remember correctly the project goes back to ancient Squeak times - but it was kept up to date and is basically working. So if you want to write the next killer spreadsheet application in Pharo then you might want to use this as a base. Screenshot attached Have fun T. (aka astares)

[ANN] Temple on GitHub
by Torsten Bergmann April 3, 2020

April 3, 2020

Need a very minimalistic template engine for Pharo to be able to embed expressions in text? Then maybe the simple "Temple" project https://github.com/astares/Pharo-Temple is useful for you. Side note: ========== If this is just too minimalistic and you need more then check Norberts Mustache project: https://github.com/noha/mustache Bye T.

[ANN] SmalltalkHub Deprecation Notice
by Guillermo Polito April 3, 2020

April 3, 2020

SmalltalkHub Deprecation Notice SmalltalkHub is now getting old and it is time to deprecate it. We plan to replace it by a static file server during 2020. The public data will still be readable and consumable from monticello clients, but modifications will not be allowed in the near future. SmalltalkHub users should move their projects to git repositories or other monticello repository services. What is changing? If you currently host a project in SmalltalkHub, you should migrate your projects to another platform as soon as possible. If you depend on a project hosted on SmalltalkHub, you should contact the owner of that project to schedule a migration. If you have documentation or tutorials using SmalltalkHub, we recommend to update those after a migration. An archive of all public projects in SmalltalkHub will be made available in read-only mode. This archive will be readable through monticello clients for compatibility reasons. Private projects, due to privacy reasons, will not be published in the public archive and will be removed to protect their owners. Why are RMoD and Inria making this change? SmalltalkHub has finished its cycle. The arrival of git integration in the past years caused the move of most users in the Pharo community to git hosting services. They now use exclusively other platforms. Furthermore, RMoD and Inria lack the manpower to properly maintain the SmalltalkHub service and keep it up to date. Smalltalkhub has no added value compared to other code source hosting platforms. How much time do I have to adapt to this change? The SmalltalkHub deprecation will follow the next timetable: Monday 04 of may 2020: SmalltalkHub will be read-only. Creation of new users and projects will be forbidden. New commits will be rejected. All existing users, projects (public and private) and their commits will remain available and visible, but their settings will become read-only. Monday 02 of november 2020: SmalltalkHub will be migrated to a static file server archive. Private projects and their commits will not be available anymore. The RMoD team and Inria plan to keep the static file server alive for, at least, 5 years from the date of its creation. What will happen if I do nothing? Your public projects will become read-only and you will not be able to commit anymore. Your private projects will become unavailable. What alternatives do I have? Those wanting to keep using monticello can migrate their projects to other monticello hostings such as http://squeaksource.com <http://squeaksource.com/> or http://ss3.gemstone.com <http://ss3.gemstone.com/> Those wanting to migrate to git, Peter Uhnakâs git migration tool (https://github.com/peteruhnak/git-migration <https://github.com/peteruhnak/git-migration>) automates monticello to git migration in tonel format. Cheers, Guille on behalf of the RMoD team
