GTTools and Mongo

After loading MongoTalk or VoyageMongo in Pharo 4 you can additionally
load the package: "Mongo-Pharo-Tools" from mongotalk repo on SmalltalkHub.

This way you can browse your mongo database (collections and documents)
directly from within Pharo using GTInspector tools (see screenshot).

Just by adding two methods - nice!

I spend some more minutes. So using GTTools in Pharo 4beta and a few more methods,
pragmas, icons later we now have:

        MongoBrowser open

which I also made available in the Tools menu. If you want to try out go to
"Tools" -> "ConfigurationBrowser" and load MongoTalk in Pharo 4beta.

See attached screenshot.

This makes:

  3 methods as class extensions for a custom GT inspector on each mongo domain object (mongo, database, collection)
  4 methods to provide the 4 icons
  1 method to provide the pragma for inclusion into world menu (#menuCommandOn:)
  1 method to open

which makes 9 methods to build a Mongo database UI browser in Pharo Smalltalk! Without the icons and menu item only 4 !!!
Hey - Pharo rocks already and with GTTools we get even more empowered!

Thanks to anyone who contributed to MongoTalk (especially Kent Beck for the initial implementation).

Have fun

And now for 2 images...

Pharo 4 for tools like this.
Pharo 3 for production code...

Any way to get this on 3 you think?
MongoTalk works fine there.

Am switching betweeen Pharo and Robomongo all the time here :-)

FWIW Mapless and its mongo support is quite awesome. I am using it for a feature and it has tremendous potential.

Your tool will be a great inspiration for builing one for it.

He he.

When the cost of building a tool gets too low, developers feel compelled to work on embellishments just to feel like they did something :).

And I see you used yet another undocumented feature: filtering the inspector :)

Nice job!
