I have uploaded a first release of a scriptingAPI for pier.
The aim at this stage is to provide a platform for importing data and
hence some scalability testing with pier-magma.
There are three classes which implement the same API.
a) PRModelScripter - direct operations on the model
b) PRCommandScripter - operations via the command interface (logging
optional)
c) PRCommandAppScripter - as b) but run in the context of the registered
application including logging (optional) and persistency.
For Data importing PRPierifyToPage provides an abstract class for
loading data from a target object into a pier page.
Example of use:
(PRPierifySmalltalkClass target: Object into: (PRCommandAppScripter
onKernelNamed:'pier')
So to create a persisted Pier kernel with 5000+ pages, one every 10 seconds.
Create a persisted kernel named 'Squeak' using the Magma Control Panel
GUI. Then run.
PRPierifySmalltalkClass pace: 10.
PRPierifySmalltalkClass exampleProtoObject.
[ PRPierifySmalltalkClass exampleAllClasses ] forkAt: 15.
feedback welcome
Keith

Hi keith
can you explain a bit what are the scripter?
I was thinking that with the command we could have people building
user interface for Wiki admin
but I guess that this is something different

Stefan,
The scripters aim to provide a simple programmatic interface to pier.
So far I have implemented.
aScripter addPageAt: '/Pier/User' name: 'Keith'.
aScripter addPageAt: '/Pier/User' name: 'Keith' contents:
'!!Keith''s Page'.
aScripter removePageAt: '/Pier/User/Bob'.
In the scripters you can pass a path or the real thing.
| newPage |
aScripter addPageAt: '/Pier/User' name: 'Keith' contents: '*my
cv*'.
aScripter addPageAt: newPage name: 'my cv' contents: 'chief cook and
bottle washer'.
While not a comprehensive api, it is enough to begin importing some data.
The MagmaControlPanel provides a simple UI for adding, deleting and
persisting kernels. Sufficient to fully control a remote installation
from a web browser. Though I haven't tried it without Magma actually
installed to know if it would be more generally useful.
Once I am happy with the magma stuff I will be turning my attention to
the Environment and aim to make some admin components for use within the
environment. I have already implemented full stylesheet control and a
password editor and user/groups editor. Which are designed to be
available within the Environment for the site.
best regards
Keith

Sounds exciting to me.
I always thought that once we have command we could even let the
admin be able to write
under Page all links = dead (nromally we can do that with the search
engine)
and then do
(all links = dead) do: action :)
