Thanks Tim, that's a valid question, I don't love git so much, we have the 
code repository versioned on mercurial and we are also trying to have no more 
that a single baseline in production. On customers' machines should run only a 
small portion of code so I guess CodeImporter is enough, but I'll feedback the 
list within some days with my results ;-)
Thanks for helpingCheersDavide

 From memory - the Excercism project does this too (can't recall if it uses 
CodeImporter, but it does get source from Exercism and load it into the image).

Having said this - are you sure you don't want to have some versioned packed in 
git that your image can load up when needed? It would add a version control 
element for you which might make sense.

Hi Folks!

For a customer of mine I want to download a bunch of new code from my webserver 
and installing it in a running Pharo image, is there a feasible way to do it?


Maybe you could just have file-outs on the server and then just load it with 
CodeImporter?

Reading from a URL:

ZnClient new get: ‘someURL’.

Loading file outs from a String:

CodeImporter class>>#evaluateString:
