The fact that "workingDirectory" point to the folder from where Pharo was launched is only valid since Pharo 7.

I note that 'workingDirectory' is the directory where Pharo is launched from. In my case it happens to be the same where the image is in but that cannot be assumed generally. So (FileSystem workingDirectory / '..' / 'public') ensureCreateDirectory Worked fine.

Re: [Pharo-users] How do I make sure a directory exists?

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

Operator priority :); unary messages `#ensureCreateDirectory have precedence over binary `#/` (FileSystem disk workingDirectory / '../public') ensureCreateDirectory. Also please note that the workingDirectory should be based on where Pharow as launched from, if you are looking for the image directory, then use the following FileLocator imageDirectory asFileReference Cheers, Peter On Sat, Mar 10, 2018 at 9:35 PM, H.

Re: [Pharo-users] How do I make sure a directory exists?

by H. Hirzel

Yes, #ensureCreateDirectory is available. I'd like to make sure a directory 'public' is available as a sibling directory of the working directory (the directory where the Pharo image is in) However FileSystem disk workingDirectory / '../public' ensureCreateDirectory does not work as FileSystem disk workingDirectory / '../public' is an instance of ByteStream. Seemingly there is no conversion to a directory object. I wonder what is needed in addition? On 3/10/18, Cyril Ferlicot <cyril.ferlicot(a)gmail.com> wrote: > On sam. 10 mars 2018 at 21:02, H.

How do I make sure a directory exists?

by H. Hirzel

Hello In Squeak and the dialect independent FileMan [1] there is FileDirectory assureExistence "Make sure the current directory exists. If necessary, create all parts in between" What is the equivalent Pharo method? BTW is there a cheat sheet for FileSystem operations in Pharo? Thanks in advance Hannes --------------------------------------------------------- [1] http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6333 https://github.com/mumez/FileMan FileMan provides an API to file and directory tasks. FileMan is a thin wrapper for various Smalltalk file libraries. It provides simple, portable interfaces for manipulating files and directories. ... Since 2015 FileMan is the default file library in Cuis Smalltalk.

Re: [Pharo-users] Please rejoin Discord

by Dimitris Chloupis

Hmm thats weird that you guys lost your admin roles, but not entirely, maybe the hack is responsible, no problem will add you back. I removed the authorisation of any third party apps and I am closing any potential security hole. I think I got them all covered but will stick around and keep ownership of the server to make sure nothing like this happens again. Please note that our message history is unharmed and nothing has been lost. I have however restored permissions to all channels so any channels admins may want to restore them back to their preference, if you are no longer a channel admit please drop me a message in here or Discord. The good news out of this experience is that I was completely blown away by the sheer numbers we had so far. It felt almost a year ago, when people frowned on the idea of leaving Slack for Discord (not that I blame them) and now we have 1000 members. This is an opportunity to see how many of those 1000 are active members. Obviously a minority of them but still in terms of Discord numbers that is a pretty big community. Another proof of the growing popularity of Pharo. By the way being admin is not a responsibility, it does not come with strings attached. I make people admins in the case when I or Esteban are not around and cannot help , so people can help each other if they are available and willing. Do not feel any guilt if you are not able or willing to do any admin work. If you just help a member even one time that is reason enough to be in admin position. Both Esteban and I have been able to maintain the server with ease and the fact that 11 hours passed was that I sleeping (yeas I do sleep, sometimes :D ) took me some time to respond. Overall managing the server requires minor attention and this is the first issue we have experienced so far. So all is good and thank you all for making Pharo better and helping each other, keep rocking :) On Sat, Mar 10, 2018 at 1:34 PM phil(a)highoctane.be <phil(a)highoctane.be> wrote: > Same here, no more admin > > On Sat, Mar 10, 2018 at 12:15 PM, ClÃ©ment Bera <bera.clement(a)gmail.com> > wrote: > >> I think the roles got changed I am no longer admin (Note that it does not >> really matter since I did not do much admin work but still) >> >> On Sat, Mar 10, 2018 at 11:48 AM, Dimitris Chloupis < >> kilon.alios(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Hey guys after my mistake we got "hacked" and someone banned all our >>> members in Discord >>> >>> I have revoked all the bans but you will have to rejoin .
