This repository contains sources of the Pharo language. Pharo is a pure object-oriented programming language and a powerful environment, focused on simplicity and immediate feedback (think IDE and OS rolled into one).
To download the Pharo stable version for your platform, please visit:
This repository contains only sources of the Pharo image. The virtual machine is served by a separate repository:
This repository is being built on a Jenkins server and uploaded to files.pharo.org.
The minimal image contains the basic Pharo packages without the graphical user interface. It is useful as a base for server-side applications deployment.
To bootstrap a new Pharo image you need the latest stable version of Pharo. For more information about bootstrapping, refer to guillep/PharoBootstrap.
The bootstrapping can be done using the following script:
BUILD_NUMBER=42 BOOTSTRAP_ARCH=32 sh ./bootstrap/scripts/bootstrap.sh
This will generate a very minimal image file named bootstrap.image
in directory bootstrap-cache
. To load the rest of Pharo environment you should afterwards execute:
sh ./bootstrap/scripts/build.sh
Tip: You can set BOOTSTRAP_REPOSITORY
and BOOTSTRAP_CACHE
environment variables to do the bootstrap outside of the source repository.
This source code repository is exported in Tonel format. In this format, packages are represented as directories and each class is inside a single file.
Pharo is an opensource project very friendly to contributions of the users. See the document CONTRIBUTING how you can help to improve Pharo.
