Just as a followup to this - Bens suggestion can be slightly simplified (and less dependent on implementation details) as:
tonelStream := ‘…path…./src/Polymorph-Widgets-Rules/IconShortcutRule.class.st' asFileReference readStream. parser := (TonelParser on: tonelStream). parser document do: [ :item | item load ]. If you want to load an entire directory you can use a reader (but sadly the reader doesn’t let you load only one file) tonelLocator := ‘…path…./src/Polymorph-Widgets-Rules/IconShortcutRule.class.st' asFileReference. (TonelReader on: tonelLocator fileName: tonelLocator path parent pathString ) loadDefinitions. Thought this might help someone in the future (particularly if you are recovering a deleted file(s) from git ;) Tim > On 16 Jun 2018, at 15:38, Ben Coman <[email protected]> wrote: > > Le 16/06/2018 à 10:43, Ben Coman a écrit : > How can a fileout/filein be done using Tonel format? > In the first case as a script? > and secondly as a possible menu option for Pharo? > > This is to facilitate transfer of student coding exercises for Exercism. > http://exercism.io/languages/pharo/launch > <http://exercism.io/languages/pharo/launch> > > Could Tonel handle a full package export in one file? > > On 16 June 2018 at 17:13, Hilaire <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > Hi Ben, > > I am not sure, but the purpose of Tonel is to propose a file representation > of "one class=one file". > > Sure thats how Tonel came about, and its how we mostly use it, but is this an > inherent limitation? > Each method is prefixed with its class, so from my 100ft viewpoint it seems > feasible to transport a whole package in one Tonel file. > > > Why not using Fileout st files to transfer the code? > > The same question might be asked why Iceberg didn't just use a Fileout at > class level. > The Tonel format is more readable, especially minus the scattering of > exclamation marks. > > I also meant to ask, what methods are used to file-in a Tonel file ? > Or more the point, what method process a string in Tonel format that has been > downloaded from a website? > > Actually, hunting around a bit I found.... > > TonelParserTest >> testMethodDefList > shows that...
