Packages

While not every Smalltalk call them packages, they all manage some sort of code bundles, essentially a named bunch of classes and methods, sometimes global definitions, an additional description, etc.
There are some aspects however, that are specific to a given Smalltalk. For instance, there are tags in Pharo (class categories), an optional packageVersion in Dolphin, or even children in Bee, forming a project hierarchy.

For the sake of generality, Webside expects this package structure:

{
	"name": "string",
	"description": "boolean",
	"classes": ["string"],
	"methods": {
		"[classname]": ["string"]
	}
}

Where

• classes is the names of the classes defined in the package, and
• methods is the list of extensions, grouped by class name.
