| 12:38 | Malin | hi |
| 12:39 | anybody present? :-) | |
| 12:43 | guess not :/ | |
| 20:52 | kados | thd: you around? |
| 20:53 | thd: I think I've fixed barcode generation | |
| 20:53 | thd: I need someone to confirm it | |
| 20:53 | thd: download latest CVS version of barcodesGenerator.pl and try it out if you get a chance | |
| 23:07 | thd | kados: are you still up? |
| 23:10 | kados: The only recent change that I see is to pdfViewer.pl . Did you change something else that failed to commit? | |
| 23:15 | kados: The code is actually somewhat confused since Paul changed the generated code from EAN-13 to code 128 in November while the number going in seems to still be designed as basically EAN-13. | |
| 00:16 | kados | thd: I'm up |
| 00:16 | thd: the web-based cvs client isn't up-to-date yet | |
| 00:16 | thd: you should check out rel_2_2 and try out the barcodesGenerator.pl | |
| 00:17 | thd: just replace the one you have and it shoudl begin working | |
| 02:56 | paul | salut hdl, tu es par là ? |
| 03:03 | thd | good morning paul |
| 03:03 | paul | hi thomas |
| 03:04 | thd | paul: why do frameworks only provide for one value list for indicators? |
| 03:05 | paul | ??? |
| 03:06 | thd | paul: Koha record frameworks provide for field indicator values to be controlled by a value list. |
| 03:07 | paul: One value list only when many fields have two indicators. | |
| 03:09 | paul: Are you having difficulty translating 'indicator'? | |
| 03:09 | paul | it's just that, afaik, every framework is independant from the other. |
| 03:10 | (& i'm ill today : seems I'm one of the 5% ppl unlucky...) | |
| 03:10 | (after vaccination (?) against yellow fiever (?) ) | |
| 03:11 | thd | paul: I am referring to the framework independent templates that allow user control of frameworks. |
| 03:12 | paul: Sorry that you have suffered from the ill effects of preventative medicine. | |
| 03:12 | paul | so I confirm : we should have differents indicators. If there are not, then it's a bug ! |
| 03:14 | thd | paul: I was ill for months from February with influenza when it was impossible to avoid carriers in New York after the US vaccine supply had been spoilt for last winter. |
| 03:15 | paul: What is the treatment for yellow fever after you have contracted it? | |
| 03:16 | paul | i go to burkina faso in 2 weeks. So I had to be vaccinated (correct word ?) against yellow fiever |
| 03:16 | it's mandatory to enter burkina. | |
| 03:16 | if you don't, you can't enter the country, and if you do so, you may die from yellow fiever | |
| 03:16 | (so vaccinnation is better ;-) ) | |
| 03:17 | thd | paul: yes, 'vaccinated'. A French invention. |
| 03:17 | paul | (but with the vaccin there are about 5% ppl that are ill for 2-3 days in the week after the vaccination) |
| 03:19 | thd | paul: What is your course of treatment to avoid bad consequences now that you contracted something? |
| 03:19 | paul | (on phone) |
| 03:59 | thd | paul: are you still on telephone? |
| 04:02 | paul: have you phoned your doctor? We need you to keep in good health :) | |
| 04:04 | paul: If you have the capacity to inform me at this time, I would like to know how to add a fixed field with no indicators or subfields to a framework. | |
| 04:05 | paul | thd : was still on phone, but it's done now ;-) |
| 04:06 | thd | paul: Have you had a proper diagnosis of your condition? |
| 04:08 | paul | i haven't phoned my doctor as my illness was planned ;-) |
| 04:08 | 5% of vaccinated ppl are ill. | |
| 04:08 | nothing to do, just wait 2-3 days ! | |
| 04:09 | about your question : you can't add a field without subfield but... | |
| 04:09 | thd | paul: Of course, an illness may be unrelated to the vaccination. |
| 04:09 | paul | if you create a subfield @, it will be considered as a "false" subfield, meaning you just have the field value here |
| 04:10 | of course, it works only for fields <010 | |
| 04:10 | thd | paul: Yes those are the fields I want to create. |
| 04:13 | paul: will not such fields with an @ subfield have two indicator positions at the front instead of the fixed or control field values? | |
| 04:15 | paul: How does the framework ignore indicators for a field? | |
| 04:15 | paul | it's when building the MARC::Record object, in perl code |
| 04:18 | thd | paul: Do you have a plugin for filling items.itemcallnumber from the LCC call number or DDC call number contained in a record when creating an item? |
| 04:19 | paul | no |
| 04:19 | you just have to use the systempref to fill it automatically | |
| 04:20 | thd | paul: How would I use the system preferences to do that? |
| 04:21 | paul | Koha >> Parameters >> systempreferences >> itemcallnumber >> enter the biblio field value to report to items.itemcallnumber field when adding a new item |
| 04:24 | thd | paul: I never set that because it is described as being for UNIMARC in the description. Would it work for MARC 21? |
| 04:24 | paul | of course. |
| 04:24 | it just report 1 subfield value from biblio to a subfieldvalue in item | |
| 04:25 | thd | paul: The description of the function was just not well translated :) |
| 04:26 | paul | feel free to send a new description to koha-devel, i will modify it ;-) |
| 04:27 | thd | paul: I cannot even get automatic barcode number generation to generate an incremented barcode number for a new item. |
| 04:31 | paul: I am not referring to printing barcodes at the moment but merely inserting an incremented number in items.barcode. I could reimplement that in several ways but maybe I am missing something for how Koha was designed to autoincriment barcode numbers or is that script broken? | |
| 04:35 | paul: preferences autoBarcode = 'yes' does nothing for me. | |
| 04:35 | paul | that may be a bug... |
| 04:36 | thd | paul: At least a small bug :) |
| 04:40 | paul: I also cannot find how to add books to a virtual bookcase. I can make virtual bookcases, but only empty ones. | |
| 04:47 | s/bookcase/bookshelf/ | |
| 04:49 | paul: I only imagine how nice this feature is while searching in vain for a link to add material to a virtual bookshelf :) | |
| 04:52 | paul: Please be well. I leave you with that last question about how do I add books to a virtual bookshelf? | |
| 04:58 | hdl | thd : are you connected ? |
| 04:59 | thd : In order to use bookshelves, you must be identified. | |
| 05:00 | and to add a book, you go to its MARC-detail or detail and then click on add to bookshelf. | |
| 05:01 | thd | hdl: I can create the bookshelf but find no way of adding material to the bookshelf but I did not see that when I imagined it might work in that way. I will check now. |
| 05:03 | hdl: My words came out poorly. I tried that but had not seen the option before. I will check now. | |
| 05:10 | hdl: Well the option stares right at me now. I must have averted my gaze before :) I lost too much sleep last week exploring features of Koha that I had not examined before. | |
| 05:13 | hdl: If I am not mistaken, I cannot add books to a bookshelf that are not in the catalogue already. | |
| 06:59 | hdl | thd : what would be the interest in adding a "ghost" book to a virtual bookshelf ? |
| 07:51 | You should have first to suggest an acquisition. | |
| 09:46 | hi owen | |
| 09:46 | owen | Hi hdl |
