Hi, I vaguely remember some work was undertaken making a mobile view for Pier. Is it still available? How did/does it work? Custom templates, views? Did/does it select the view based on user agent? I was wondering about using jQueryMobile to create a mobile view - though as I write this perhaps a mobile rss reader and using Pier's rss support would fulfil a similar purpose? Thoughts? Cheers Nick

pier admin update

by Nick Ager

Hi, Since my initial post about Pier Admin I've fixed numerous bugs, added documentation and simplified the configuration. The WYSIWYG parser now parses tables, embedded lists, book index and reference links. To the best of my knowledge it should either understand or preserve all Pier markup. Let me know if not. I've also created a new book view - BOAggregatedView. From it's comment: I display my own structure and all my child structures if I answer true to > #isPublication. I format publication numbers as the default book template. > I provide an edit link for each child structure. The view allows you to view all the contents of a chapter or section at once. I'm couldn't find anything similar already in Pier, is there? I've discovered some cool Pier-EditorEnh functionality that I didn't know existed. If you click on a link button (in the enhanced wiki editor) without any text highlighted a popup window displays the site map and the available value links. Very cool. There was a small bug which prevented it working in Pier2, which should now be fixed. As ever Pier admin can be installed with: Gofer it > renggli: 'pier2addons'; > package: 'ConfigurationOfPierAdmin'; > load. > ConfigurationOfPierAdmin loadBleedingEdge. Let me know how you get along - feedback always appreciated. Nick

serving stylesheets

by Nick Ager

Hi, For all the Pier distribution I've checked I've noticed that for each request the stylesheet was being served from a new Url. The relevant implementation is: MAFileModel>>url "Answer a link to a request handler for the given file." | handler | handler := MAFileModelHandler on: self. ^ WACurrentRequestContext value registry register: handler; urlFor: handler Which means that for every request for a file model's url, a new MAFileModelHandler is being created and registered. The result is: * The browser never caches the stylesheet * Each page request unnecessarily adds to the application's collection of handlers. Note: This is a generic Pier issue for PRFile requests, unless the url includes the query ?view=PRDownloadView OR MAExternalFileModel class baseUrl: has been defined). One solution would be to add ?view=PRDownloadView to the url for stylesheet requests or possibly for all file requests (modify MAExternalFileModel>>url to add ?view=PRDownloadView). However pondering the problem I've prototyped a solution in which PRFile have a custom view component "PRFileView" which responds with it's associated PRFile file directly, rather than delegating to MAFileModelHandler. The logic is that, by default, PRFile>>#url responds with a fully qualified path to itself within the pier structure e.g. /pier/template/style.css then PRFileView>>#initialRequest checks the request to see if it matches the mime-type of it's associated PRFile's mime-type, if so it will respond true to PRFileView>#isFullResponse and serve the file directly in PRFileView>#respondUsing: MAExternalFileModel class>>#baseUrl still works as intended and MAFileModel>>#url (and friends) remains unchanged. The result appears to be a neater solution than modify MAExternalFileModel>>url to add ?view=PRDownloadView, but I might be suffering from implementors bias :-) I thought I should check that: 1) people think it looks like a sensible fix and improvement 2) if (1) then whether I should delete MAFileModel>>#url (and friends), deprecate them, or leave them as is. Thanks Nick

Fwd: [Seaside] Pier Admin

by Damien Cassou

I love the demo. Would be nice to have an image built automatically with it. Thank you Nick ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nick Ager <nick.ager(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Nov 27, 2011 at 10:43 PM Subject: [Seaside] Pier Admin To: Seaside - general discussion <seaside(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> Hi, Pier Admin - a new administration UI for Pier - has progressed enough to be given a wider audience. I've put a demo site up on seasidehosting.st - http://pieradmin.seasidehosting.st (be gentle it's a shared resource - any edits you make will be seen be all others). I've also recorded a short demo, illustrating some of it's features - http://vimeo.com/32749535. Install with: Gofer it renggli: 'pier2addons'; package: 'ConfigurationOfPierAdmin'; load.

Something like XDV/Diazo/Deliverance in Smalltalk?

by Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas

Hi, Me and a group of friends in a local hackerspace[1] want to intervene the interface of this Cynin site using the technologies of Diazo[2], Xdv[3] or Deliverance[4]. Seeing the way that views are wrote in Seaside I wondder if there is someway to make a similar intervention/integration of interface without touching directly the code a la Diazo/XDV/Deliverance but using Seaside/Zinc or some similar combination. [1] http://hackbo.co/ [2] http://diazo.org/index.html [3] http://www.enfoldsystems.com/software/proxy/docs/6.0/xdvtutorial.html [4] http://packages.python.org/Deliverance/ Any pointer will be appreciated. Cheers, Offray

Changing Cherokee for a Smalltalk based web server?

by Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas

Hi all, I'm getting random "504 gateway error" answers from several sites (using Zope and Rails) that are served by Cherokee using a reverse proxy setup. This error is an open issue in Cherokee and has been reported and not properly patched since 2009: https://code.google.com/p/cherokee/issues/detail?id=504 I did choose Cherokee because of its easiness to setup and newbie friendly interface and character, but with this problem I'm thinking in testing another server, may be a Smalltalk based one that have similar characteristics and can serve sites in Zope or Rails also. I know about Comanche, Swazoo and Zinc, but I don't know which of them is better (making load balance and stuff like that) and have proper documentation about using it in combination with other software (Zope and Rails in my case). Any advice on this matter is greatly appreciated, Offray

Updated website

by Lukas Renggli

I've made a pass throughout he piercms.com website to make it up-to-date. I removed all the contents referring to Pier 1.0 and updated the contents where possible. Also I changed the download link to point to the latest stable build. Please let me know if I missed something. Lukas -- Lukas Renggli www.lukas-renggli.ch

Is the Pier One-Click Sample Webpage Included in Pier 2.0?

by Bruce Prior

I have the latest Pier One-Click working well with no problems. But I wanted to upload a Pier image to SeasideHosting and I assumed the One-Click version wouldn't work there. So I obtained a new Pharo1.3 image and loaded the latest configurations of Seaside, Magritte and Pier into it. When I stared Comanche, Seaside came up up OK in my browser and Magritte was included in the Applications list but not Pier. I tried PRPierFrame registerAsApplication: 'pier' kernel:(PRKernel instanceNamed: 'pier') and it does add a pier application to the Seaside application list but it appears to be an older version of Pier without the enhancements of the sample Pier page in the One-Click Pier. Is the Pier One-Click sample webpage included in Pier2.0? If so, can someone please advise how best to register Pier as an application in Seaside so that it comes up the same as in One-Click Pier?
