| 13:55 | hdl | paul ? |
| 13:56 | Hello everybody. | |
| 13:56 | owen | Hi hdl |
| 13:58 | hdl | I am hired by paul to work on stats for koha. |
| 13:58 | I am french, living on the seaside in France near Montpellier. | |
| 13:59 | I would like to know if there is an easy way to debug perl code in Koha other way then consulting the logs, printing them would be nice to me. | |
| 14:00 | owen | Hi, nice to meet you. I'm from the Nelsonville Public Library and the author of the NPL templates |
| 14:00 | I work mostly with the interface rather than the Perl code, so I'm not the best person to ask about debugging | |
| 14:01 | hdl | Sorry. |
| 14:01 | I saw you did nice job. | |
| 14:03 | kados | hdl: have you used data::dumper or the 'perl debugger'? |
| 14:04 | here's a link: http://www.ferg.org/papers/fer[…]introduction.html | |
| 14:05 | here's maybe a better one: http://modperlbook.org/html/ch21_05.html | |
| 14:05 | owen around? | |
| 14:05 | owen | Yes |
| 14:06 | Not the same kind of problem we've seen before, kados? | |
| 14:06 | kados | I'm also unsure why someone was looking for the title "jane austen's book club"... is that supposed to show up too? |
| 14:07 | well it sounds a bit familiar | |
| 14:07 | owen | http://www.amazon.com/exec/obi[…]tail/-/0399151613 |
| 14:08 | kados | right ... so is the assumption that we have this book? |
| 14:08 | ahh ... that 's a different title eh? | |
| 14:08 | o | |
| 14:09 | owen | I remember you manually correcting a flaw in one of the MARC records (or marc-related tables?) that was preventing something from showing up in the opac |
| 14:09 | Is that not what's going on here? | |
| 14:10 | kados | not sure yet |
| 14:18 | huh ... this doesn't look good: | |
| 14:18 | select tagsubfield,word from marc_word where bibid like 144902; | |
| 14:19 | 245a | Da | |
| 14:19 | 245a | Vinci | |
| 14:19 | 245a | legacy | |
| 14:19 | 245a | / | |
| 14:19 | owen | '/' is getting separated out as a word? |
| 14:20 | kados | but select title from biblio where biblionumber like 144902; |
| 14:20 | The Jane Austen book club / | |
| 14:20 | no that's ok ... it's the wrong record for that bibid | |
| 14:21 | the da vinci legacy is biblionumber 144886 | |
| 14:22 | select tagsubfield,word from marc_word where bibid like 144886; | |
| 14:22 | | 245a | Big | |
| 14:22 | | 245a | Russ | |
| 14:23 | | 245a | me | |
| 14:23 | what is going on here? | |
| 14:23 | owen | Records are getting their wires crossed? |
| 14:25 | kados | paul around? |
| 14:25 | owen | He's paul_away at the moment |
| 14:28 | kados | ahh ... bibid and biblionumber are different ;-) |
| 14:28 | whoever thought that was a good naming scheme for those columns ;-) | |
| 14:30 | ok ... select tagsubfield,word from marc_word where bibid like 144918; | |
| 14:30 | yields the right results | |
| 14:34 | owen is it possible we're stripping off the first or second result somewhere? | |
| 14:34 | or last result | |
| 14:34 | does that sound familiar? | |
| 14:34 | owen | Hmm.... not sure. |
| 14:34 | kados | I can't come up with any other reason for both records not showing up in the opac |
| 14:34 | do you know of any other titles that we have LP and AF for? | |
| 14:36 | owen | A search for 'london bridges' turns up 3 in the intranet and only 2 in the opac |
| 14:36 | (both keyword searches) | |
| 14:37 | kados | hmmm |
| 14:39 | owen | Intranet title search for 'golden compass' turns up 4, and opac title search only turns up 2 |
| 14:40 | But one of the 4 is lost, so maybe it's still a 1 item difference | |
| 14:40 | kados | all three london bridges items have appropriate entries in marc_word |
| 14:40 | but searches where we know we only have one result are showing up fine | |
| 14:40 | like cryptonomicon for instance | |
| 14:41 | one item in both intranet and opac | |
| 14:43 | hdl | thanks kados. |
| 14:43 | Leaving. | |
| 14:44 | kados | huh ... we're getting some strange errors in our logs |
| 14:46 | owen | Like what? |
| 14:47 | kados | well there's some good news here |
| 14:47 | owen | Anyway, maybe this is a non-issue since these searches look like they work on 101? |
| 14:47 | kados | yep |
| 14:47 | that's what I just noticed | |
| 14:48 | must be my fault | |
| 14:48 | I can't see any differences though | |
| 14:48 | the data looks identical to me | |
| 14:48 | so maybe it's an older bug or something | |
| 14:49 | hehe ... even better ... "Jane austen's book club" works! | |
| 14:49 | owen | In fact I've been telling people that we shouldn't worry about these problems because of the pending upgrade. I just didn't say the same thing to Justin in reply to his post because I was sick of repeating it |
| 14:50 | kados | I'll respond this time ;-) |
| 14:50 | owen | Be as mean as possible ;) |
| 14:54 | kados | hehe |
| 14:55 | yea I always try to be ;-) | |
| 14:56 | owen does Andr�s Tarallo's name show up strangely in your email client? | |
| 14:56 | it totally messes up mutt | |
| 14:56 | I end up having to delete all his emails before I can sanely read the others | |
| 14:57 | owen | it works okay in Thunderbird and, and works fine in mutt for me |
| 15:05 | kados | huh ... must be my mucking about with charsets earlier this year |
| 18:42 | owen | chris around? |
| 18:43 | chris | yep |
| 18:43 | owen | I know you're busy, but can I ask a quick question? |
| 18:43 | chris | sure can |
| 18:44 | owen | One of the things that bugs our staff members is the time it takes to lift a debarment. so I was thinking of writing a script that I could pass just a member number and 1 or 0 to. |
| 18:45 | In general, are simple scripts like this okay, or should things be incorporated into modules like into Members.pm | |
| 18:46 | chris | simple scripts are fine, if its a one off thing |
| 18:46 | if you think you might want to use the same code in more than one place, then a module is the right place for it | |
| 18:46 | does that make sense? | |
| 18:46 | owen | Yes. |
| 18:47 | kados | is there only one flag to set/unset with debarred patrons? |
| 18:47 | chris | cool, modules are just all about making the code easy to maintain, and so you dont end up with the same code written in lots of different places |
| 18:47 | i think so | |
| 18:48 | owen | it's a column in the table, 0 or 1 |
| 18:49 | chris | cool, then yep just switching that will be all thats needed |
| 18:49 | kados | that's a nice and simple script ;-) |
| 18:49 | owen | That's about my speed :) |
| 19:28 | What do you know, it worked! | |
| 19:31 | kados | congrats owen! |
| 19:33 | staff will be glad | |
| 20:17 | michael | hi everyone here ! |

| 20:29 | ... hum seems to work steo by step... | |
| 20:29 | ;-) | |
| 20:30 | chris | you can go |
| 20:30 | perl -MCPAN -e shell | |
| 20:31 | to get into the interactive CPAN shell | |
| 20:31 | then just type install packagename | |
| 20:31 | michael | chris: i just enter informations and i am dl some perl package.... |
| 20:31 | chris | cool |
| 20:31 | if its the first time using CPAN, it will make you do some setup | |
| 20:31 | but from then on, it shouldnt need any more | |
| 20:34 | michael | ... sometimes i forget one of these : " or these ' ... but it seeams i ready to go now... |
