Dario, over the summer I started work on a framework called Tugrik[1] and Voyage/Tugrik[2]. Tugrik stores objects in GemStone using an api based on MongoTalk ... Voyage/Tugrik uses the Voyage persistence API for storing objects and it is implemented using Tugrik ... For examples of writing Pharo code using Voyage/Tugrik, see my presentation at this years ESUG[3].

A couple of years ago I mentioned "server blocks" and they appear again here as Voyage Server Blocks that allow you to write code in Pharo that is "transparently executed" on the GemStone server ... objects are serialized back and forth between Pharo and GemStone using STON ...

I haven't fully developed Voyage/Tugrik --- all of the unit tests are passing --- because I am wondering if the voyage paradigm is the right way to access GemStone from Pharo ... I am inclined to think that Voyage Server Blocks are a better model which puts me at a crossroads: do I follow the Voyage api and push development along those lines, or do I pursue a pure Voyage Server Block API ...

I am hoping to "partner" with interested developers and let them drive the direction of development ...

I think that Michal Balda is presenting his take on a Pharo/GemStone framework at the Zurick Smalltalk meetup tonight[4] -- Michal saw my talk at ESUG and I spent some time talking to Michal as well --- and after playing with Voyage/Tugrik has an idea for a simpler framework and I am very interested in seeing what he has come up with...

Ciao,

i development web solutions based on Seaside with  Pharo and Gemstone.

Now im interested to create Pharo application with objects stored in Gemstone.

Someone has developed a framework into Pharo to manage this interface?

( Some years ago i forked with Visualworks and relative GemBuilder )

There are great news about the upcoming Smalltalker’s Meetup in Zürich.

We’ve found a conference room for the evening and will start off with a “show us your project” session in a room with a big screen and start the social part after your input at a nice Australian Steakhouse.

The best thing is: we already have a first session: Michal is going to show his new Gemstone-based persistence framework for Pharo. It can be used to develop in Pharo and keep your objects stored in Gemstone.

Hi,

I would love to be in Zurich, but I obviously can't :(

I read about:

So... is there a way to get some more info about that "Gemstone-based persistence framework for Pharo"? And who is Michal? Last name?

Someone find information about it?

Thanks for any considerations,

Dario
