I tried to keep the syntax as simple as possible. However there were several requests lately for that kind of things. I don't really know, how we could implement that the simplest without bloating the wiki- syntax and while keeping the visitors small that transform the AST into different output-formats (HTML, Text, Latex, etc). The best idea I cam up so far is to add some sort of XML-Tags that can be parsed in a generic fashion, so that extensions can register their own tags. Something along ... <pier:indented> The time is now: <pier:smalltalk>Time now</pier:smalltalk> </pier:indented> Would that help? Is something like that of generic interest? > I've been searching in the code for the place of translation from > *..* and others to HTML and coming down to PRDocumentScanner > scanForToken and see the scannerDefinitionComment on class-side. > The next step to define a new element would be very interesting. The scanner and parser is automatically generated from the respective definitions using SmaCC, so you probably don't want to change these methods manually ;-) If you only want to do some simple string transformations when generating HTML you could simply patch the methods from the protocol #visiting-document in the class PRViewRenderer.

Re-4: Tabs for pier

by Frank Urbach

Hi, Lukas! I can understand that a simple syntax keep it easy writing some content. My intention was keeping fingertips writing my ideas in the wiki. On the other side the idea using some sort of XML-tags bring us the possibility write some extensions like a building set. I'm not so familiar with XML but in my understanding of this we could bring the translation to other formats into the tags. With an open repository of these buildingblocks everybody can decide what he want. The loosers in this kind of solution are my fingers ;-). > > Sure I can use HTML but writing of such things written above is > > much easier. > > I tried to keep the syntax as simple as possible.

Is it possible to add a comment "Do not touch, it's generated"?

"pretty" urls for links to internal pages?

by Brian Chapados

Hi, I'm new to smalltalk, seaside and pier. I want to use pier to host a small site, and if possible, I'd like to change the way internal links to other pages are rendered, so that the wiki text: *Introduction>introduction* produces the link: http://localhost:9090/seaside/pier/information/introduction instead of: http://localhost:9090/seaside/pier/information/introduction?view=PRDefaultV… Both links return the same URL when typed into the browser, so clearly view is the default command. I've tried searching around for information about this but I couldn't find anything obvious to me. While browsing the source code, I came across WAUrl adaptToContext: and WAAnchorTag goto:, which look potentially relevant, but I'm honestly not sure if I'm on the right track. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Also, if this is a really bad idea for some reason, that would also be good to know. I'm using Sqeak-3.8, Seaside 2.63a3-lr.51 and Pier-all-lr.81 Thanks, Brian

[Ann] StellDichEin VCard and ICal support for Pier

by Philippe Marschall

Hi StellDichEin is a Pier addon that allows you to create VCards and ICal events and todos in Pier like you would create structures (eg pages). Later these can be downloaded and imported (iCalendar, Outlook, ....). It not tested very roughly and very likely has several bugs. It can be found at http://mc.lukas-renggli.ch/pieraddons/ and depends on the following packages: - NetworkAddress (http://mc.lukas-renggli.ch/magritteaddons/) - ICal (http://squeaksource.com/ical/) - ICalMagritte (http://squeaksource.com/ical/) There is also a configuration map that should load all these automatically. There is also a very simple poll in the same repository. Cheers Philippe

About magritte for XML serialization

by Stéphane Ducasse

Hi lukas I wanted to know this was possible to specify how an field should be saved and reloaded. For example I wanted to save a date and reload it. I added MADateDescription>>parseString: aString ^ self parseString: aString protected: [ aString asDate ]. to MADateDescription :) but I have the impression that been able to specify at the description level the way the values are saved and filed in would make sense. I checked on my old version of MA, but I could not find how the MADescription itself was describing the condition because it would be the same process may be been able to specify a block or a selector for each of the action would be cool.

Moving the contents of Pier from one image to another

by btaylor＠healthauditors.com

Hi all, I have an instance of pier running in an image which seems to be hosed. The problem is that while Pier will still display pages, it will not allow them to be edited. This started sometime after I put in a back ground process to periodically save the image. So, I need to know how to migrate the contents of this wiki to another image. Any tips on this? BTW, I can still edit methods in the System browser, and execute workspace code. Thanks, Brett Taylor

Changing admin password?

by Duncan Entwisle

Please could someone tell me the proper way to change the administrator's password in Pier? Last week, I could do it by using the Pier Browser, exploring the root, and sending a password: message to the adminUser instance. I've now created a new image, with the latest Pier packages from Squeak Map. Even though the password appears to change in the instance, the old passwords (user=admin, password=pier) remain in use. I realise I'm probably doing something stupid :-) Thanks for any help, Duncan. P.S. With the latest Squeak Map Pier package the Pier Browser doesn't appear to be added to the Tools flap like last time.
