Hi Alexandre,

load:

...already loads latest stable version, but if the project hasn't any declared stable version, it will throw a "no stable version found" error, and you'll need to look for a version (using #availableVersionsOf:)
of course, this can be improved... I will think on a way to do it.

upgrade

loads new versions of an already present project (if there are newer versions on a configuration).

and no, I didn't implement a project remove... because metacello (afaik) doesn't have it, and it was outside the scope of the loader. Of course, I think it is a very important feature, but it will be added in the future.

Cheers,
Esteban

Hi Esteban,

It looks cool. I tried and I was seen apparent problems.
I think it would be useful to add
        loadLastVersionOf:
        loadLastStableVersionOf:

I am not aware of Metacello details, but where is there a distinction
between loading and upgrading?
You do not have removeProject: or something?

Cheers,
Alexandre

Hi,
I want to announce the immediate release of GoferProjectLoader, a
Gofer extension to manage Metacello configurations.
For all who want to know quickly what is this, here is a small
synopsis:

GoferProjectLoader is a loader for Metacello configurations (A
metacello configuration is a full project load tool, including
package/project dependencies with it corresponding versions).
GoferProjectLoader automatically scan projects stored on
MetacelloRepository, but you can add your private repositories as
well. GoferProjectLoader responsibilities include:

1) Install project versions and keep track of them.
2) Update configurations and upgrade projects (if desired).

GoferProjectLoader relies on Metacello and Gofer to perform this
tasks (In fact, It can be thought as a Gofer extension to understand
Metacello packages).

To load GoferProjectLoader, you need to do:

Gofer it
        squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository';
        package: 'ConfigurationOfGoferProjectLoader';
        load.

ConfigurationOfGoferProjectLoader project lastVersion load.

With this... you'll never need again to perform once and again this
repetitive configuration... instead, you can do things like:

Gofer project
        load: 'Seaside30';
        load: 'Pier2'.

You can see the full documentation here:
http://www.smallworks.com.ar/en/community/GoferProjectLoader

Now I'm working on the promised page for configurations (Adrian: I
really sorry for the delay... I know I promised this a lot of time
ago... but time is the tyrant :( )

Cheers,
Esteban
