Moving a Pharo window under Centos
by Michael Burns May 25, 2020

May 25, 2020

Iâm trying out Pharo on Centos. Since I donât have a spare PC that I can install Centos, I installed on my Mac under Parallels. Centos runs fine, and I was able to install latest Pharo 8.0. With any other windows under Centos I can grab the title bar, move it, then drop it where I like. However, inside Pharo, any window I grab by the title bar, though it moves to follow my cursor, Does not drop when I let up on the mouse. Iâm then stuck where all I can do is drag that window around but never drop it. For some reason when I Cmd-tab away to a Mac App, then move the cursor back to Pharo it only rarely fixes the problem. Anybody else run Pharo under Centos, under Parallels? Anybody else seen this? Is there a fix or a workaround?

Ok I will that you are P8 sometimes we have to wait for timeout it should be 1 min (from memory). Can you push from the command line?

Project of Interest => Jekyll + Dynamic processing integration + Git(hubs)Pages => pharo in the middle
by CÃ©drick BÃ©ler May 24, 2020

May 24, 2020

Hi there, This post is just to talk about one side project Iâm exploring and interested in from a long time. I think it may interest other people here. Iâd like to have powerful (static based) web site so hosting is really cheap (even free) and hassle free. Iâve my own server for years, it is cheap and simple but, of course, it needs some maintenance (linux update, nginx scripts, â¦) even if tools are the simplest Iâve found. Recently thanks to student projects ;-), I found some time to learn what I find is a wonderful solution. This solution is to use GitHub DSCM, GitHub Pages and Jekyll (a ruby static site generator that is natively integrated) all together. https://jekyllrb.com <https://jekyllrb.com/> The beauty is that you can edit the site straight on GitHub. We get the power of version system and hosting for freeâ¦ It literally is a CMS and the cheapest and reliable that I know of (grav might be another option). Of course, there are some Â« dynamic Â» content possibilities too (otherwise GitHub Pages is enough) - blog posts are natively generated through new files according to a name convention. - there are plugins too (but you have to watch for compatibility in GitHub). Dealing with forms and comments is possible - solutions that are hosted on a third-party. Solution like Discus or formspree, â¦ (thatâs a NO GO to me) - web service integration that you can host (note that form spree is on GitHub too https://github.com/formspree/formspree <https://github.com/formspree/formspree>) This last point is where Iâd like Pharo (Zinc, Iceberg) to be integrated. Again we could imagine a web service system based on Zinc. I could manage form submissions that way and everything Iâd like but it may end up complex. Do I need a database ? Do I need to store information and therefore manage the underlying architecture. If it crash, I want only the endpoint to be not available but the whole site still working. An in between elegant solution os to use git for what itâs good at (versioning collaboratively through PR, and also reliable hosting in classic platforms). The idea is to use the PR mechanisms to submit stuff like blog comments (note that you have a free moderation system). This is actually not limited to comments but all kinds of possible interactionâ¦ This way is (to me) better in terms of infrastructure management. Such a service also needs to be available (and maintained) but this is a very minimalist machinery (hanling POST request service only - no real content management as deferred to github). And again, a fail safe version (for the last version of the generated pages). Staticman (https://staticman.net <https://staticman.net/>) is a nice node application that allows to do this. Itâs possible to host the service too. I can use this node app of course, but I believe we could have quite easily such an application in Pharo with Zinc. I also wonder if we could use Iceberg to deal with this information straight in a pharo image (thatâd be cherry on the cake). The super cherry of the cake would be pharo core and lib documentation, demos (you can have one gihub page by organization and/or users - in paid plans, you can have more for private stuff)â¦ One place, one process to contribute, either for code or documentation. Anyway, I have no real question except than asking for feedback and also to know if some people are interested in such project. Cheers, CÃ©drick nb: my hidden goal is to provide web site for people, unipersonal and small organizations. So you know, they pay for the service of creation, but then they own it and can do whatever they like. Of course we can also offer paid services like managing dynamic information content. More than comments, Iâd like to be able to deal with stuff like orders, facturation, even meeting planning through ics versioned files, etc. This really is something Iâd like to be able to provide soon (less than 1 yr time - simplest web site with contact form and comments at least). It might become something more serious the future...

Pushing to GitHub repository from my iceberg repository is hung (beachball). How do I interrupt the process?
by Michael Burns May 23, 2020

May 23, 2020

I had been following the Developing a simple counter chapter. All was well. I created an iceberg repository and added my Project to it. I committed the sources to git. Still working OK. Then I did a push of all that to my GitHub/MichaelKentBurns/MyCounter repository. I got a progress bar for the push which never made any progress. Instead I got the beachball spinner. After quite some time I wanted to interrupt it to see if I could recover, but I could find a way. Eventually I had to force-quit. When I restarted my Pharo image, all of that work was lost because I had not done a save. My Question: Is there some way to interrupt such a process? Screen capture attached.

When I try to use Iceberg and "import from existing clone" and select either "/tmp/Teapot" or "/tmp/Teapot/source" it gives me an "AssertionFailure: Project location does not seem to be a valid git repository." Even though /tmp/.git exists. I checked and zeroflag/teapot has the correct metadata https://github.com/zeroflag/Teapot/blob/master/.project <https://github.com/zeroflag/Teapot/blob/master/.project> and https://github.com/zeroflag/Teapot/blob/master/source/.properties <https://github.com/zeroflag/Teapot/blob/master/source/.properties> s.

Patrick Point iceberg (add project) to your local disk where you put the zeroflag. Iceberg just need the folder because after it will use the metadata of the project and it should work.
