[Pharo-users] RESTful API with Pharo with Gemstones
I have been a project coming up that I really onlyneed a restful API on. The front end will be first built on a mobile device(iOS )then back on possibly android, with a very stripped down web application. i would like to use pharo/gemstones as the database. is there a project out there that allows for such restful API development in pharo land? This would be so fun! thanks
Re: [Pharo-users] RESTful API with Pharo with Gemstones
hey, sebastian.. this looks great! this looks like what i am after.. did you run into any problems or limitations using Amber as a front end? I have not tried Amber yet, so this might be the right time to give it a shot.. where did you find zinc-rest? a quick search turns up references to it.. should i be able to just install it via my image? andrew - i thought about using the seaside rest add on, but seaside seems to be alot of overhead just to run a rest server.. mariano - i am thinking about using api token..

This would be so fun! thanks I am not so sure what you mean exactly but this is my stack. I use pure Zinc-REST on the Gemstone side and the REST API is described in Swagger-Spec from within Gmestone. Clients are VBA, Amber and Pharo and they utilize the Swagger API spec to access the server. Works pretty well and is much more preformant than the intial Pharo MongoDB backend I initially used. Have a look into http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~HeSe/Swagger-Spec There you can find most of the needed Swagger implementation some minor details like type constants are missing. Once your Gemstoneserver knows how to host his Swagger-Spec you can host it via https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui This saves a lot of explaning time to client developers. Sebastian
[Pharo-users] When to use a stream for concatenating text..
it seems that in more cases than not, i find that developers use a stream when concatenating some text strings. I am wondering if this is a smalltalk thing, or is there a real speed benefit when using streams in this way. Thanks!

I am wondering if this is a smalltalk thing, or is there a real speed benefit when using streams in this way. It is not a matter of speed only, but mostly memory. For large text concatenations Streams are more memory efficient because you don't create intermediate strings. E.g. 'string1', 'string2', 'string3' ... , stringN will require the creation of N intermediate String instances. aStream nextPutAll: 'string1'; nextPutAll: 'string2'; nextPutAll: 'string3'; nextPutAll: 'stringN' Will only add contents to the Stream collection.

[Pharo-users] Weird issues while editing
Hey, all.. I have been having a weird problem for awhile. It has been happening on both pharo 3 and pharo 4. I can't pin down when it is happening, but here's what i am seeing: at some random time, when i hit the backspace, the cursor moves to the beginning of the method name.. and if i type anything, it overwrites the method name and any other text.. if i try to backspace, the cursor goes all the way back to the beginning of the method name. the only way out is to save or cancel changes, and try editing again.. any ideas? thanks!
[Pharo-users] Pharo 4 - current state?
Hey, all. I had an hour last night to start playing with pharo 4. in the hour that played with it, there are already features i miss when going back to pharo 3 for getting work done. my questions is, how close is pharo 4 to be useable in a day to day environment? can i use it as a part of my regular development? what can i do to help move everything along? thanks!
Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo 4 - current state?
okay, you've got me to switch.. anyway.. it's not that big deal to fire up pharo 3 with the same codebase.. i think i saw GTSpotter on a screencast somewhere.. i will go look for it.. when you mention the other nice things, where can i find them? where should i look? my day time development team (ruby and objective-c) is working on a side project during lunch presentations, and then on our own time. it will be a commercial product, and we're doing it in seaside.. .hopefully this will generate 6 new converts into the fold. it is kind of confusing for everyone at first.. but during our meetings, things get cleared up and people are getting a good handle on all of it... to the point that during regular work, i am starting to hear i wish we (ruby ecosystem) had (insert ST goodness) here..

There million ways to help, you can a) bug fix c) document d) make your own tools and share them with the rest of us e) introduce pharo to other people so we can grow as a community and the list goes on and on.

[Pharo-users] passing json from seaside to javascript
i am currently working on an app that uses a javascript library to render the state of an object inside seaside. i am trying to figure out the best way to transfer the state of object to javascript. the state of the machine changes via form inputs and ajax. i already have the code to convert the state of my object to json, so i am thinking i can do this one of two ways.. via ajax, inject the json code into a variable in a function that is fired off by ajax. i just am not sure how to inject this json string into the page where it would look like the contents of a variable. any ideas? or, i could make a component that just spits out the current state as a json string. this way, when the value of a form element changes, that value is sent over ajax to seaside, and seaside can answer back with the new state as a json string. i am just not sure how to implement this, either. any ideas? let me know if there is a better approach to this, also. thanks!

[Pharo-users] Making objects persistent
I am building a seaside application, and am in the process of building my models and unit tests. I have a few objects that build up my data by creating objects. when i run the data creation methods, everything is fine. immediately afterward, since these objects to belong to anything, they are cleaned up by garbage collection. is there a way to create these objects so that they persist? if this is possible, how would you go about deleting such a tenacious object? thanks!

[Pharo-users] Casting a string as an instance variable.
I would like to do something like: MyObject updateWIth: aDictionary. then, inside the object, treat the keys as instance variables, and the values as values.. and do something like: (key1 asInstanceVariable(??)): value1. this seems like it should be possible, but i am just not getting it. any ideas? thanks!

Re: [Pharo-users] Initializing a class with a Dictionary
great! looking at STON next! thanks! On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 2:26 PM, Clément Bera bera.clem...@gmail.comwrote: Hello, I think you should look at the STON framework. STON looks like JSON for smalltalk objects. Basically it does the same as your idea but instead of a dictionary it loads fields of an objects from a STON file which looks like a JSON file (a STON is kind of an extended Dictionary exported as a string, but it has support for more that instance variables). Now if you want to go your way, to me what you want to do looks fine. These methods can be used for development tools but also for frameworks and stuff like that. The thing to do it is to add this method in Object and add support so it can work on all objects in the system. Object#intializeWithDictionary: aDictionary self class isVariable ifTrue: [specific case ?] self class isBytes ifTrue: [specific case ?] self class isCompiledMethod ifTrue: [specific case ?] self class isSmallInteger ifTrue: [specific case] aDictionary keysAndValuesDo: [ :key :value | self instVarNamed: key put: value ifAbsent: [ self error: 'no ', key , ' found']. But as you can see there are many specific cases: CompiledMethod, bytes objects, word objects, immediate objects, variable-sized objects, weak objects and for Pharo 4 even others that you may need to handle in your code (Ephemerons, 2bytes and 4 bytes objects). If you don't get the specific cases (you may not know programming language internals), then imagine how you would make your code work to initialize an Array, a ByteArray or a CompiledMethod from a dictionary. Not easy, huh ? That's why I strongly recommend to use something like STON, because it is very easy to use, handle already all the specific cases, well documented (Sven always does fancy documentation) and it will be maintained in Pharo 4 for recent changes (because Sven likes to use the bleeding edge version of Pharo).

[Pharo-users] Pharo 3 / osx / Keyboard shortcuts ?
i noticed last night that the keyboard shortcuts are a bit different in pharo 3. for instance, to when i mouse over a method, to run the tests, i see there are two keys listed, j, m. i can't seem to figure out which modifiers are required to make this work. i am also not sure how i would go about finding out which functions j and m would perform. run 'this' test, run 'all' tests. any ideas? thanks! -- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary #BitMessage BM-2D8VWUJSS41RFKh1ec83preVabHrnniExa http://www.Village-Buzz.com http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101
[Pharo-users] Using/editing external packages..
i am currenty develop an app in seaside, and am wondering about best practices when using external packages. in my case, i am using a copy of TF-Login that i updated to work in pharo 2. The main class in that package is RegisteredUser. as is true in most cases, i will be tweaking this object a great deal. this package also contains a great deal of renderers that will be tweaked. so, my question is: how should i go about this? should i take RegisteredUser and sublcass it? this might requried me to change other code in the package? should i subclass the renders and override their methods? should i just go ahead and edit the TF-Login package directly? my initial thought was to edit the package direclty, but i am not sure what would happen if the package is externally updated. thoughts? ideas? -- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary #BitMessage BM-2D8VWUJSS41RFKh1ec83preVabHrnniExa http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101
[Pharo-users] branching with monticello
i am sort of foggy on how to effectively use branching with monticello. currently, we use branches daily. we branch off the master, and give it some name like update_user_functions.. we develop away on that, and when it's time, we merge that back into master, and push out to the server. having named branches makes it very easy for us track what's going on in the development line. is this possible with monticello, or am i just missing an ideology? thanks! -- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary #BitMessage BM-2D8VWUJSS41RFKh1ec83preVabHrnniExa http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

I've found the easiest and most flexible approach is two-fold: - Refactor the underlying library with the hooks and abstractions you need - And then, subclass If you just override and monkey-patch, I feel you are more vulnerable to the library changing underneath you, as well is potentially making your code harder to understand. If you can make the library designed to use it the way you want, you will reduce duplication and the chance of someone else coming in and doing it in an incompatible way, as well as give the library maintainers an idea of what you're doing, so they may consider that in making non-backward-compatible changes. Of course, that's ideal and requires library maintainers open to accepting such changes, but in practice I've found this to be true (with Pharo, Magritte, BabyMock...) - Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Using-editing-external-packages-tp4742801p4742832.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary #BitMessage BM-2D8VWUJSS41RFKh1ec83preVabHrnniExa http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

Hello! There are actually 3 implementation for a code formatter in Pharo2… this means it is a bit random which is used ;-) But Nautilus uses explicitly the selected formatter in the settings from RB. (In Pharo 1.4 it might have been the one of the old AST or the non-configurable one…) (And, yes, it’s a *dumb* idea to have 3 implementations of anything… therefore, in Pharo3, there is just one…) So: In the settings for “Refactoring Engine” there is a sub-category “Configurable Formatter” deselect New line after cascade and New line before first cascade — formats without the multiple lines. The tab size is not changeable… that would be a general editor setting which does not exist yet, as far as I know.
