Bruno: A Text Editor for Programming by Demonstration

Created by Samuel Ainsworth, Frank Goodman, Jonathan Lessinger, and Michael Scheer

Motivation

Bruno's purpose is to provide an elegant way to demonstrate the evolution of code. Software development relies heavily on iterative and incremental development, and Bruno was designed to showcase this process on a step-by-step basis. Through its extensive plugin, simple command, and intuitive edit history interfaces, teaching and demonstrating software development has never been easier.

Quick Start

With the proper dependencies installed in lib, you can run Bruno by executing "ant run". Tests can be run from the Eclipse JUnit integrated tester.

bruno's Issues

Build drag and drop file explorer

README should contain a list of libraries required

perhaps even a link to the dropbox with the libraries?

Incorporate Edit Tree into the main GUI

Plugin Fooables only execute once

When attempting to run a plugin fooable, like open or save, the fooable will only execute the first time its called from foobar.

Support editing multiple files

Populate bindings in ScriptPluginManager for scripts

In ScriptPluginManager, on line 50 a SimpleBindings object is instantiated.

globals = new SimpleBindings();

On line 107, all the bindings contained within SimpleBindings are attempted to be added to the script engine... (putAll starts on line 120)

putAll(engine);

The globals field should be populated with the various objects that we want scripts to have access to. For example, Bruno. This will allow scripts like close.py to work. Currently, close.py gives a stack trace like the following:

javax.script.ScriptException: sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.EcmaError: ReferenceError....

However, once we add a Bruno binding, we will have access to the Bruno object within close.py by calling 'Bruno'.

Bruno should pass a reference to itself to ScriptPluginManager, which will be added as a binding to SimpleBindings.
