[ANN]: Tiny Gmail Contact Importer

by Sean DeNigris

I wrote a tiny utility to work with Gmail contacts. It is very basic and just maps an export file in the Outlook format to GmailContact objects. It doesn't support the Google CSV format - the field order and names are different, and the file is UTF16-encoded. Enjoy! Gofer it smalltalkhubUser: 'SeanDeNigris' project: 'SeansPlayground'; package: 'GmailContact'; load. #GmailContact asClass importAllFromOutlookExport: â/path/to/contacts.csv' asFileReference.

This is also my thinking it is nice to let the user explore the environment arround. I know Alain, a Pharo fan now, discocer the underlying Pharo with DrGeo scripting et al. Anyway for now in the WIP code, it is Nautilus that show up. > > If we need to hide, then it will be with a dedicated GUI.

DrGeo development is open to anyone interested to participate. I granted you write access.

I ask that to see if we need to hide much of what makes a system browser in Smalltalk, or, to the contrary, if it is a good idea to open up to the browser world so as to introduce the user (maybe advanced) to the underlying Pharo so as to allow for more powerfull extensions. If we need to hide, then it will be with a dedicated GUI. If we open up, then a restricted browser is best (and then, if we want to keep to standards in Pharo, it means Nautilus).

Thierry, I was not aware it could be that short. Yes it will be nice. All in all: - one GUI tool to edit an existing script (so no visibility on the other methods of the class) - one GUI tool to create a method (with visibility to the other method of the class, as possible examples) Hilaire Le 15/05/2014 09:18, Goubier Thierry a Ã©crit : > Have you considered controlling the user experience directly to let him > focus only on the method to create or edit? > > Creating a text editor window in coding mode with the ability to edit or > create a method in a preset class is not much work; I'd say around 20 > lines with the default menu and an accept which compiles. > > If you want complete control on the menu (i.e. a bit more polish than > the default and control over which shortcuts are active), I can extract > what I've done for mine: it's a minimal command objects API to couple > menus and shortcuts inspired by the one of the OmniBrowser (of Pharo > 1.4).
