Re: Is there a file selector in Pharo

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Welcome david Just a remark, the file dialogs are not really good and torsten started to design a better one named arbour, we started also to create one with spec2 based on the one of Peter I guess but we could not focus on it and finish. There is the FileDialog in Pharo-contributions. I wanted to have one that - has nice default - remember the last visited places on per instance Now what is super important is that you can improve your situation while improving ours and the one of everybody because Pharo is really about a nice ecosystem on which its users can have an impact. So if all smalltalkers in Pharo would spend 30 min for Pharo each week and contribute then Pharo would be different S. > On 27 Jan 2021, at 15:52, David Pennington <david(a)totallyobjects.com> wrote: > > I am moving to Pharo from VisualAge Smalltalk as I am now using an M1 MacBook. > > I am building software to manage our home accounts and to do this, I download each day a text file from my bank that contains about 1 monthâs worth of transactions.

Re: Is there a way to load a dependent repository of assets that doesn't have a baseline - in my Metacello baseline?

by Paul DeBruicker

You could use a #postLoadDoIt: or #preLoadDoIt: and have Zinc download the github repo contents to the directory of your choice or use LibC to do a git checkout in the right spot.

Re: Is there a way to load a dependent repository of assets that doesn't have a baseline - in my Metacello baseline?

by Tim Mackinnon

So many interesting avenues - this one I can also see as useful in yet another thing, but actually i just want my project baseline to pull down another repo along with my other dependencies and store the contents alongside the others in the pharo-local directory but just not complain that there is no baseline class to interpret (for other dependencies). This lets an http server in my project access some now local web assets easily. I thought it would be a simple thing possibly already built in , but it seems everyone has done everything else but this. I kind of suspect there may be a way to catch the metacello exception and ignore/resume it. Failing this, maybe I can convince the other project to add an empty BaselineOf directory for easier loading (or I can fork it I guess) Tim > On 28 Jan 2021, at 08:35, Guillermo Polito <guillermopolito(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > ï»¿I donât know if this is what youâre looking for, but there is GitBridge out there too > > http://forum.world.st/ANN-GitBridge-td5101250.html > >> El 27 ene 2021, a las 23:51, Tim Mackinnon <tim(a)testit.works> escribiÃ³: >> >> Hi Hernan - that is close to what I want, and looks useful for something else I need to do - but in this case I literally just wanted to download a git repo dependency (not a zip) like already happens with metacello - but because it doesnât have a baseline class in the repo (in fact its just js files), I donât want metacello to try and interpret it - just continue.

Re: Why does Iceberg duplicate my Project when loading a baseline?

by Sanjay Minni

For a start some issues: 1. to create a repository for a new project in GH, assuming a blank repository has been created in GH, it should be straight path thru iceberg->(repositories) +Add->clone from github.com then-> add packages and commit/push - but this does not work, i have to do a fair amount of workarounds 2. For cloning/pulling an existing pharo project on GH in iceberg -> "clone from GH" should work but somewhere i was adviced to use "clone remote repository" instead 3. System Browser-> (Dirty package) - right click commit does not work or the "*" never goes away and then just now <http://forum.world.st/file/t368721/icebergErr.jpg> I dont know in which bucket they fall and where these should be raised as issues / proposed changes but there are quite a few more and the system as a whole should work stably as i get jittery if code repository does not behave smoothly let me know where to propose these changes / raise these issues and they concern iceberg+the package management system Esteban Lorenzano wrote > Feel free to propose changes :) > > Esteban > On Jan 28 2021, at 7:31 am, Sanjay Minni < > sm@ > > wrote: >> My take is that a focus is needed on Iceberg >> after Pharo projects moving to Github (from smalltalkhub), I find iceberg >> has become more required but somehow I dont get the confidence. >> It does funny things.
