Dear Pharo users, I'm so excited to introduce you a project I'm currently working on which is called "Ephemeric cloud". It is a very simple and fast way to publish your Images to the web. Basically to publish a Smalltalk Image you just need to call a usual HTTP POST request to Pharocloud Ephemeric API and you'll get a hostname in response.
Check those small video examples below. 2 minutes each (and most of the time is uploading time of my not-so-fast home internet :) Publish with curl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dKBCpj96cU Publish with Drag&Drop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuGTenCIwik The main idea of the project is to put as many images as possible and as simple as possible. And I'm so confident in efficiency of this solution that I included a free plan for you guys:) Hooray to Pharo Free hosting! :) (scared smile) I see Ephemeric cloud as a corner stone of all Pharo web development. For instance, I can imagine some kind of "Publish" button on Marina project site, clicking on which a user will spawn a new instance in the cloud and will be able to test it immediately. Another good use case is running unit-tests by publishing an Image and running some API calls on it by script. Or you can have an A-B publish scheme when a part of users are sent to a new version for a test and the rest to a stable one. By the way, ephemerics are a great case for Pharo Remote Debug project;) My intentions are to get to the point when Ephemeric cloud subscription is a must-have tool for a Pharo developer! :) You may check some project details here: https://www.pharocloud.com/kb/tutorial/ephemerics-introduction All questions are so-very welcomed. If anyone is interested in participation in cloud beta-testing please contact me at supp...@pharocloud.com and I'll extend your subscription plan.
