GToolkit Installer

GT Installer is a set of tools for installation of various software system artefacts such as shared libraries or projects

Library Installer

Library Installer helps with downloading and installation shared libraries along side the image or vm. I should be configured by the user for a specific library.

The following example shows how Library Installer is configured for the Sparta/Moz2D library.

| installer |
installer := GtLibraryInstaller new.
installer library: 'Moz2D'.
installer version: 'development'.
installer binary: 'libMoz2D'.
installer url: 'https://dl.feenk.com/{library}/{platform}/{version}/{arch}/{binary}.{extension}'.
installer icon: (SpartaCanvas logo scaledToSize: 50@50).
installer running: [ MozServices isRunning ].
installer works: [ MozLibrary uniqueInstance hasModule ].
installer postInstall: [ MozServices start ].

Running the installer:

installer run

Library Installer UI

Library Installer supports visual logging of the installation process. It can is optional and should be connected to the installer explicitely:

| ui |
ui := GtLibraryInstallerMorph new.
ui installer: installer.
ui extent: 650@300.
ui openInBorderlessWindow.

The UI must be connected to the Installer before begin of the installation process!
