[Pharo-users] Pillar parser rewrite: PetitParser or not?

2015-03-11 Thread Damien Cassou
Hi,

The current pillar parser has several problems:

- it is hard to understand and change
- it discards input locations

I think a refactor or rewrite is necessary. What are the pros and cons of using 
PetitParser to do that?

[Pharo-users] using spotter to navigate through the file system

2015-03-11 Thread Tudor Girba
Hi,

Here is a little post that describes how you can use GTSpotter to navigate
through the file system:
http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/searching-file-system-with-gtspotter/

If you combine this with the GTInspector ability of allowing you interact
with the file references, you get a pretty powerful tool:
http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/browsing-files-with-gtinspector/

This is probably the simplest 3-minute demo you can give to a newcomer :).

Cheers,
Doru

 This was already in the pipe:

Beautiful :)

 Sorry for making this more documented ;)


:). Looking at it, I see you already are using the icons inspection as
well. Man, nothing escapes you :)



 Thanks to Sven - his articles are inspiring!


Indeed.

Cheers,

I completely agree.

I think there are mostly pros. It can be that the parsing will be slower,
but I do not think this is a critical issue for Pillar. It would be more
important to have an extensible parser.

Doru

The cons are that petit parser is a heavier component and we should never 
underestimate that (just a reaction to a notion on this list). So we should 
avoid making things more complex, especially dependency wise.
The pros is that petit parser will make it easier to extend and maintain the 
pillar parser. I've read something about a new version of petit parser that has 
a speedup of aprox. 1.000.000x. If that is the case then it is no downgrade 
speed wise :) Another pro is IMHO that are some people that would like to move 
petit parser closer (not too close) to the core. That again would make it a 
more standard component that makes it easy to write parsers for everyone. A 
good companion if you have regex and you exceed to possibilities it provides.

I really have a bad feeling while saying: It would be good to have pillar based 
on petit parser.

[Pharo-users] [ANN] TODO List of Requested Features

2015-03-11 Thread Damien Cassou
I've just written a list of nice features we miss in Pillar:

http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Pier/Pillar

Please contribute by either making the list longer or, and I would prefer that, 
making it shorter.

Hi Phil,

 FWIW Mapless and its mongo support is quite awesome. I am using it for a 
 feature and it has tremendous potential.
 

I would be interested to have a small comparison between voyage and mapless 
(pros and cons). Do you have enough feedback to list pros/cons for each library?

Hi Phil,

The extensions should without problems on the stable version of GTInspector
for Pharo 3.

Cheers,

 MongoTalk works fine there.

 Am switching betweeen Pharo and Robomongo all the time here :-)

 FWIW Mapless and its mongo support is quite awesome. I am using it for a

 Your tool will be a great inspiration for builing one for it.

 When the cost of building a tool gets too low, developers feel compelled
 to work on embellishments just to feel like they did something :).

 And I see you used yet another undocumented feature: filtering the

 Nice job!

 MongoBrowser open

 which I also made available in the Tools menu. If you want to try out go

 Tools - ConfigurationBrowser and load MongoTalk in Pharo 4beta.

 See attached screenshot.

 This makes:

   3 methods as class extensions for a custom GT inspector on each mongo
 domain object (mongo, database, collection)
   4 methods to provide the 4 icons
   1 method to provide the pragma for inclusion into world menu
 (#menuCommandOn:)
   1 method to open

 which makes 9 methods to build a Mongo database UI browser in Pharo
 Smalltalk! Without the icons and menu item only 4 !!!
 Hey - Pharo rocks already and with GTTools we get even more empowered!

 Thanks to anyone who contributed to MongoTalk (especially Kent Beck for
 the initial implementation).

 Have fun

[Pharo-users] Jenkins build trigger

2015-03-11 Thread Christophe Demarey

Thanks to Esteban add-on on Smalltalkhub, it is now possible to notify Jenkins 
that there is a new package published for your project.
What we do for now is to poll very often (each minute) smalltalkub to check if 
there is an update. It is a big waste of resources!
Now we can do better! It would be very nice to update your jobs to now use the 
commit hook.

Here is the way to go:
go to your job configuration on Jenkins
In the build triggers section, 
enable Trigger builds remotely (e.g., from scripts) and choose an 
authentication token. 
disable [URLTrigger] - Poll with a URL
go to smalltalkhub, on your project settings page
Fill in the commit hook url field with 
https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/buildByToken/build?job=JOBNAMEtoken=TOKEN
 by replacing JOBNAME and TOKEN by the Jenkins job name and the token chosen.

In the end, the build is now triggered immediately after the commit (no more 
delay).
