Torsten Bergmann wrote > Nonetheless I would like to share the script that I personally use Cool, thanks! My script was getting too complicated, so I made it into a class with a MetaC config, and the script is now just a Gofer load. This has the additional benefit that the start up scripts for the Pharo loader never change (they're just Gofer loads) and so avoid the caching problems that can otherwise arise.

I do something like this too. The shortcoming is that newly created repos are not authenticated. This should be in core built into the repo objects. I guess that's what the KeyChain stuff is about? ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Tip-Image-init-scripts-when-working-with-PharoLaunche… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Alexandre, Yes, that solution seems to work fine. Right now i'm working at other things but i could do the exporter later. It will be useful for everyone. Arturo and I don't think that our work is ready for Esug, but we could present it next year, who knows. Thanks! It's a lot of hard work.

[Tip] Image init scripts when working with PharoLauncher

by Torsten Bergmann

PharoLauncher [1] allows you to work with many Pharo images. You can download fresh images, clone existing ones and with its access to the Pharo CI it allows you to easily reproduce errors in specific Pharo image versions. I REALLY like this tool when working with Pharo. There is a customizable hardware key on my laptop that I can just press to open PharoLauncher, manage and launch the images and dive into the world of Pharo. To optimize my Pharo "easy access workflows" further I wanted all the images that I started with PharoLauncher: - to share a common metacello repository cache (where all the mcz are stored independent from image location) for faster loading - to have the possibility to preset the Squeaksource, SS3 and STHub password already - to set my authors name All this is already explained in Marianos blog posts [2] and [3] and the PharoEnterprise book [4]. Nonetheless I would like to share the script that I personally use. Maybe (in an adopted version) it is usefull for other PharoLauncher users as well: ===================================================================== COMMON SETTINGS FOR ALL PHARO IMAGES WHEN STARTED USING PHAROLAUNCHER ===================================================================== Open any Pharo 3.0/4.0 image and execute StartupPreferencesLoader preferencesGeneralFolder fullName in a workspace to find out the common preferences folder on your local machine. You can put a Smalltalk script into this folder, for instance "initAllImages.st" that is evaluated each time an image runs. I've found the following script very useful: ----------------------------------------------------------------- | sharedPackageCacheDirectory | "Never apply to PharoLauncher itself" (SmalltalkImage current imageName includesSubstring: 'Launcher') ifTrue: [ ^self ]. "ask if script should be applied" (UIManager default confirm: 'Apply init script from ', StartupPreferencesLoader preferencesGeneralFolder fullName,' to image') ifFalse: [^self ]. "Use a shared package cache to store Monticello MCS files for all images" sharedPackageCacheDirectory := 'C:\Pharo\commonpackage-cache' asFileReference ensureCreateDirectory; yourself. MCCacheRepository default directory: sharedPackageCacheDirectory. "Set password for Squeaksource" (MCRepositoryGroup default repositories select: [:each | (each isKindOf: MCHttpRepository) and: [((each locationWithTrailingSlash includesSubstring: 'www.squeaksource.com') or: [each locationWithTrailingSlash includesSubstring: 'http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/'])] ]) do: [:each | each user: 'squeaksourceuser'; password: 'secretsqueaksourcepassword']. "Set password for SmalltalkHub (hub and HTTP repos)" (MCRepositoryGroup default repositories select: [:each | (each isKindOf: MCSmalltalkhubRepository) and: [each locationWithTrailingSlash includesSubstring: 'smalltalkhub.com'] ]) do: [:each | each user: 'PharoUser'; password: 'sthubpassword']. (MCRepositoryGroup default repositories select: [:each | (each isKindOf: MCHttpRepository) and: [each locationWithTrailingSlash includesSubstring: 'smalltalkhub.com'] ]) do: [:each | each user: 'PharoUser'; password: 'sthubpassword']. "Set author name" Author fullName: 'PharoUser'. UIManager default inform: 'Script applied'. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hope it is usefull for others too. Bye T.

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo launcher network error for Pharo 4.0 (beta)?

by Tim Mackinnon

I've tried it at home and it works fine, yesterday it didn't work in the office (just 4.0 and 2.0) - some there must be some weird networking going on in that office. Anyway - glad I can use it at home, as its a very handy launcher! Thanks for creating it, and to those helping maintain it.

Re: [Pharo-users] Recommended Pharo image updating and Metacello commit policy

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

But isn't that a bit... weird to use cache to move data from one image to another? I would expect cache to be just a cache even if in reality it is just a regular repository.
