00:46 | brendan | howdy jdavidb |
00:46 | jdavidb | Hi, brendan. |
00:46 | brendan | hoping that heat has returned for you |
00:46 | :) | |
00:46 | sounded cold reading through the logs | |
00:46 | jdavidb | Oh, yeah. We had power by sunday night. My DSL is still down, tho. |
00:46 | brendan | but getting some reading done is always nice |
00:46 | jdavidb | yep. |
00:46 | brendan | bummer about the DSL |
00:47 | you jumping on some neighbors wifi? | |

01:10 | gmcharlt | hi nengard |
01:10 | nengard | hi gmcharlt |
01:10 | hi to all who don't usually see me at this hour :) | |
01:13 | chris_n | what an interesting twist |
01:14 | jdavidb | Ain't it, though. |
01:14 | russ | it is all fun and games in koha land :-) |
01:15 | brendan | heh -- i like to call it my daily soap-opera |
01:20 | braedon|work | so.. does that mean you guys aren't going to be getting koha.org back any time soon? |
01:22 | russ | who knows |
01:22 | tune in next week when spidey says... | |
01:23 | * russ | gets on with useful stuff like updating the kohacon10 wiki |

01:37 | nengard left #koha | |
01:37 | Jo | lucky we weren't holding our breath for koha.org to come back to us :) |
01:37 | bye Nicole | |
01:37 | brendan | koha-community.org++ |
01:37 | totally agree Jo | |
01:38 | chris_n | truth |
01:38 | gmcharlt | Jo: at least it makes it crystal clear who you're negotiating with |
01:40 | Jo | yep |
01:40 | does anyone have an urge to tell me how good and useful turning on library thing or syndetics is for enhanced content in koha | |
01:41 | ie worth the price | |
01:41 | brendan | hmm.. have you seen a catalog with it turned on? |
01:41 | wonders if I know of one with it turned on | |
01:42 | gmcharlt | it can be useful, yes, particularly with the LibraryThing stuff |
01:43 | Jo | well as a new convert to library thing for my home library, it is pretty cool aka a real time ewaster :) |
01:43 | apparently Waimakiriri here in nz have it but i can't see it when i saercah their catalogue. | |
01:43 | brendan | https://librarycatalog.ebpl.org |
01:44 | * chris_n | discovers folding in vim and is an even happier camper |
01:45 | jransom left #koha | |
01:46 | Jo | I havn't quit |
01:46 | my laptop quit (has a brain of its own and refuses to types 'O' anymore | |
01:46 | collum_ | Here's one with syndetics http://mtpl.ptfsinc.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl |
01:48 | brendan | ah I like the tutorials found from that website collum_ |
01:48 | https://librarycatalog.ebpl.org | |
01:48 | whops | |
01:48 | http://mtpl.org/renew.html | |
01:50 | Jo | oh thanks - off playing |
01:51 | collum_ | Yep. Nice tutorials. |
01:51 | Jo | so would you ever have more than 1 on these enhance content 'services' tunred on. |
01:52 | ie would you have syndetics + google or just one or the other? | |
01:52 | * chris_n | notes cool new tweaks in additem.pl |
01:52 | gmcharlt | potentially you might want to mix and match |
01:52 | in the case of cover images, to pull together multiple sources | |
01:53 | collum_ | Do LibraryThing tags come over into Koha? |
01:53 | gmcharlt | but more likely to combine differents types of enhanced content |
01:53 | collum_: they're not indexed or loaded into Koha's own tag system afaik | |
01:53 | brendan | but it would show all sources of covers correct... not just the one where it matches |
01:53 | gmcharlt | brendan: yes, right now it would |
01:54 | Jo | its the tags really . i don't think the public use them anywhere near as much as they should and if we imported a 'set' it would demonstrate how powerfuil they are |
01:54 | brendan | collum_ it as javascript addition that calls from the lirbarything servers based on ISBN# |
01:54 | IRC | |
01:54 | collum_ | Ahh. |
01:55 | brendan | but that was my understanding awhile ago... I guess all things are dynamic |
01:55 | well hoping that most things are dynamic | |
01:55 | gmcharlt | Jo: that's one of the things that SOPAC integration could help with - sharing tags among libraries |
01:55 | certainly critical mass is the biggest problem with tagging in library catalogs | |
01:56 | brendan | could be a cool koha-community.org project to build a shared tag's database |
01:56 | collum_ | Yep. I'm not sure we would ever get enough tags to be useful. |
01:56 | brendan | for koha catalogs |
01:56 | collum_ | if left up to the patrons. |
01:56 | gmcharlt | brendan: build it, and we'll get Evergreen catalogs in as well ;) |
01:56 | brendan | adding it to the list ;) |
01:59 | Jo | that would be amazing |
01:59 | Genji joined #koha | |
02:01 | liz-nekls joined #koha | |
02:02 | Genji | is there any method of figuring out what server query caused a zoom::event? |
02:08 | liz-nekls is now known as wizzyrea_laptop | |
02:08 | wizzyrea_laptop | very quiet, surprising really |
02:10 | chris_n | you just missed out on all the long discussions |
02:12 | wizzyrea_laptop | much wailing and gnashing of teeth? |
02:13 | Genji | what if i move all the record retrieval into one lump... and then I process it? instead of getRecords record retrieval and process at the same time? |
02:13 | gmcharlt | actually, no - we decided to talk about something useful and discussed enhanced content services for a bit ;) |
02:13 | wizzyrea_laptop | ooh! |
02:14 | Genji | i would be basically rewriting/reorganizing getRecord... |
02:14 | wizzyrea_laptop | shinies! |
02:15 | I guess now that we know we don't have to guess at what is going to happen now, so we can move on our happy path of kicking lek's arse | |
02:15 | gmcharlt | Genji: if you're firing of multiple queries simultaneously, you can tell which connection a ZOOM::event is associated with |
02:16 | Genji | gmcharlt: how? |
02:16 | wizzyrea_laptop | (unless of course we see the code, then things might be different) |
02:16 | * wizzyrea_laptop | is done now |
02:17 | gmcharlt | Genji: that's what ZOOM::event does - if you look (e.g.,) at around line 401 of C4/Search.pm |
02:17 | ZOOM::event is checking the connections passed to it for events | |
02:18 | the return value is the index into the array of connections of the connection that has the most recent event ready to process | |
02:19 | the asynchronous applications section of perldoc ZOOM is pretty through | |
02:21 | bob joined #koha | |
02:23 | Genji | so zconns[$i] is the same connection as $servers[$i]? |
02:23 | bob left #koha | |
02:25 | gmcharlt | it's one-to-one - the routines in C4::Search open one connection per defined server that it's searching |
02:25 | and the code happens to open the connections in the same order as @$servers | |
02:26 | Genji | right. so if i want to process server 1 first, i just do the while loop until $i=1? |
02:28 | okay... im confused... it says asyncrounously retrieve results... means that the results are already in by this stage? | |
02:28 | jdavidb joined #koha | |
02:29 | user77 joined #koha | |
02:29 | user77 is now known as rhcl_home | |
02:30 | gmcharlt | that you are started to receive them, yes |
02:30 | and you still want to pull them in asynchronously for efficency | |
02:32 | if you want to split the output by server, what you can do is either include the server index ($i) as part of the data stracture that you stick th eresults into | |
02:32 | i.e., build an array to start the $results_hash that you want associated with each connection | |
02:36 | Genji: and actually, getRecords is doing that for you anyway | |
02:37 | as $results_hashref (after line 481) | |
02:39 | collum_ left #koha | |
02:39 | Genji | hmm.. i actually want to combine the results, server 1 + server 2, and then do the ofsetting and results per page.. |
02:40 | well.. its not server 1.. server 2 for me.. its query 1 + query 2. | |
02:41 | jdavidb left #koha | |
02:42 | gmcharlt | append the results of one query after the other, right? |
02:47 | Genji | ya. but the offsetting happens inside getRecord itself. while looping through the results. |
02:48 | gmcharlt | which gets us back to one of my earlier suggestions, which is seeing if you can create appropriate sort indexes so that you can create a single query that puts the records you want first |
02:49 | in order to it via separate queries, you'd have to get the number of hits from the first query | |
02:49 | see if that falls in the desired search offset | |
02:50 | then issue one or two separate calls to getRecords | |
02:50 | once you do that, the merge of the result sets becomes trivial | |
02:51 | Genji | hmm.. getRecord does its own offsetting though. |
02:53 | gmcharlt | right - get the result set size for a query (without fully processing it) would need to be a new function |
02:53 | Genji | right. |
02:54 | Jo | syndetics data as enhanced content looks amazing ... |
03:05 | Genji | so, search.pl first getResultSize($query) then if $offset is within $size, getRecord query 1 until resultsperpage and if results per page isn't filled by query 1's results, get query 2's results.. until is resultsperpage.... if query 1 is under offset, or has no results, use query 2, by offset until resultsperpage.... this right? |
03:07 | gmcharlt | yep |
03:13 | Genji | hmm.. sounds like i should code two new subroutines in Search.pm |
03:21 | Jo | Brendan: is east brunswick one of your libraries? |
03:21 | brendan | no |
03:21 | I think they are one of PTFS's first ones | |
03:21 | Jo | its using both syndetics and library tghing tags: https://librarycatalog.ebpl.or[…]iblionumber=59230 |
03:21 | brendan | cool |
03:21 | Jo | and that tag cloud and ability to 'hop' about the koha catalogue is what I'm after. |
03:21 | gmcharlt | yep, EBPL was among PTFS' first |
03:22 | Jo | i wonder if itsstraight forward 'koha 3.2' out of thebox. has their code been shred? |
03:22 | shared (sorry nursing a very sore hand and typing is crap) | |
03:23 | * brendan | thinks parts of have been shared |
03:23 | gmcharlt | the LTFL for libraries support is definitely in there |
03:23 | in 3.2, that is | |
03:23 | Jo | yep - just discovered the enhanced content sys admin tabs and working through seeing i might like to have |
03:24 | gmcharlt | IIUC, in order to be able to jump from LTFL tags to bibs in your Koha catalog, you send LT a dump of your MARC records or a list of the ISBNs that you have |
03:24 | Jo | but it would be permanetly out of date ... |
03:25 | it can't do it on the fly? | |
03:25 | brendan | thinking that you are correct with your U gmcharlt |
03:25 | gmcharlt | Jo: http://www.librarything.com/wiki/index.php/Koha |
03:25 | brendan | I think they LT have methods for that updates being very quick... so not too far behind |
03:26 | Jo | what does IIUC mean ? |
03:26 | gmcharlt | if I understand correctly |
03:27 | Jo | oh :) |
03:27 | thankyou | |
03:28 | may have to file a work request for chris that "i want one like that" | |
03:28 | gmcharlt | HLT is running a 3.0.x now, right? |
03:29 | Jo | yep but we have 3.2 we are playing on |
03:29 | gmcharlt | cool |
03:29 | the LTFL setup is even easier in 3.2 | |
03:29 | Jo | well - actually a 2.2.9 live, a 3.0.x test site and a 3.2 playground |
03:29 | yep - i'm playing in 3.2 config now | |
03:30 | we were going to upgrade to 3.0 but decided to wait for 3.2 | |
03:30 | gmcharlt | it's worth the wait :) |
03:30 | Jo | yep - nods frantically :) |
03:30 | I'm very excited... we really have to go live march / april | |
03:31 | so hoping 3.2 stable will be available | |
03:31 | gmcharlt | it'll be there |
03:34 | Jo | yippee |
03:37 | rhcl_home left #koha | |
03:48 | braedon|work | gmcharlt: do those lists of modules i added to the bug look ok/remotely useful? |
03:48 | gmcharlt | braedon|work: yes |
03:48 | tracking deps is a never-ending task - every bit helps | |
03:50 | braedon|work | :) |
03:50 | it was bit of a mish to track those down | |
03:50 | but they seem to be working for me now | |
03:53 | until someone updates something | |
03:53 | and then they will break again | |
03:56 | gmcharlt | and thus the circle of life continues |
03:57 | braedon|work | i really should chuck together a ppa of the cpan ones |
03:57 | cpan just gives SO many stupid issues | |
03:57 | some of which cpanp seems to be able to solve | |
03:58 | but that has it's own issues | |

13:35 | but i don't see an html file in the koha-tmpl directory ... | |

13:37 | nengard | yes? |
13:37 | chris_n | in the cron jobs section |
13:38 | perhaps including the info from perldoc on each script would be beneficial | |
13:38 | ie | |

13:38 | etc | |
13:38 | biglego left #koha | |
13:38 | nengard | you want me to put the command to the perldoc? or the actual text from it? I can do either |

13:43 | nengard | hehe |
13:46 | chris_n | question about the Notice Triggers logic |
13:46 | kf joined #koha | |
13:46 | kf | hi all |
13:47 | chris_n | the help says: Delay is the number of days after an issue is due before an action is triggered. |
13:47 | and a Delay value is required for the trigger to work | |
13:47 | so if I want to send an 'Advance Notice of Item Due' | |
13:47 | and I set a delay of 1 day | |
13:48 | then the advanced notice is not sent until 1 day after the item is due | |
13:48 | owen joined #koha | |
13:48 | chris_n | not quite advanced notice in my thinking |
13:48 | jwagner | chris_n, the advance notice doesn't use the notice triggers. Separate script. |
13:48 | chris_n | jwagner: so contrary to the help file, the advanced notice will be sent if the delay field is empty? |
13:48 | jwagner | Sorry, we lost our VPN connection for the moment, so I can't look, but check misc/cronjobs for the script. It needs to be cronned, and the # days set in the patron record. |
13:48 | owen | Hi all |
13:49 | jwagner | Morning, owen |
13:49 | chris_n | nengard: you might want to note that so the help can be corrected |
13:49 | or maybe I should open a bug for that? | |
13:50 | nengard | hmmm |
13:50 | so - delay is used for all but advanced notice? I can put that in the manual | |
13:50 | and the help | |
13:51 | jwagner | The delay is only used for the overdue notices, so far as I know. |
13:51 | nengard | wait - what page are we on ... |
13:51 | the notice triggers? | |
13:51 | cause isn't advanced notice handled by the patron using enhanced messages? | |
13:51 | jwagner | All the notice texts live under notices, but the notice triggers only are used for overdues. Somebody check me on that, but I think its right. |
13:52 | nengard | if that's the case then we need a bug |
13:52 | jdavidb | Mornin', owen. :) |
13:52 | nengard | so that the other notices can't be selected from the triggers page |
13:52 | jwagner | The patron messaging settings control whether/how many days a patron gets an advanced notice, whether the patron gets an email for holds triggered, etc. |
13:53 | chris_n | nengard: the issue is that the help on the overduerules.pl page incorrectly implies that the Delay field value is necessary for any notice to be processed |
13:53 | nengard | that i can fix, but we have a bigger issue as well |
13:53 | chris_n | which is, in fact, only true for overdue notices |
13:54 | of course the entire page is confusing as it claims to be defining overdue actions | |
13:54 | but in reality handles several types of notifications | |
13:55 | kf | chris_n: i can help with questions about overdue-notices |
13:55 | chris_n | including general announcements |
13:55 | kf | kf: testing them right now in all different combinations |
13:56 | chris_n | kf: we were just discussing the confusing help and general text in overduerules.pl |
13:57 | kf | ah ok, there are some other bad things about notice triggers |
13:57 | minimal value is 1 | |
13:57 | and dont use the default library - no notices will be sent | |
13:57 | chris_n | kf: so the script does not process any notices with a delay of less than 1? |
13:57 | kf | got no notice when I tried with 0 |
13:58 | only with 1 for the first notice | |
13:58 | this is the day after due date | |
13:58 | which is ok, because you can also sent itemdue and advances notices | |
13:58 | but a hint would be good | |
13:58 | chris_n | kf: so if I want an advanced notice sent , it will not send until 1 day *after* the item is due? |
13:58 | kf | overdue notices |
13:59 | nengard | chris_n - you are missing the point - the advanced notice shouldn't be on that triggers page at all cause it's handled on the enhanced messaging preferences on the patron record |
13:59 | kf | advances notices are sent before due date |
13:59 | chris_n | nengard: big bug then :) |
13:59 | a blocker imho | |
14:00 | nengard | unless I too am misunderstanding |
14:00 | kf | I dont understand the problem |
14:00 | jwagner | I don't think it's a blocker, necessarily, but it definitely needs more explanatory text. |
14:00 | chris_n | kf: so if I set up an advanced notice do I have to set a delay? |
14:01 | * chris_n | is confused as to whether the functionality is broken or just the documentation |
14:01 | jwagner | chris_n, the delay is set in the patron record -- the Enhanced Messaging section. You can do a global db update to set the same delay for everyone. |
14:02 | kf | yes, or define the delay in patron type and import your new patrons after that :) |
14:02 | jwagner | If you edit the patron categories and set up your desired settings there for advance notice, holds, etc., then any time you create a new patron it will pick up the settings automatically. But there's no easy way short of a SQL update to modify existing records. |
14:03 | chris_n | so then what is the Delay field for on the overduerules.pl page? |
14:03 | kf | advanced notice = before due date and item due = due date are handled in advanced messaging, overdue notices in notice triggers |
14:03 | nengard | chris_n - it should only be for overdue notices, but that's the part that needs fixing |
14:04 | right now you can pick it for anything | |
14:04 | jwagner | It's a documentation/screen display issue. |
14:04 | kf | for overdue notices, days after due date |
14:04 | jwagner | Ideally the notice triggers page should only filter/show overdue notices in the pulldowns. If that's not possible, at least some screen text about "this is only for overdue notices" |
14:05 | chris_n | so it sounds to me like the overduerules.pl page needs an overhaul |
14:05 | kf | jwagner: right. but its nice you can create as many notice templates as you want and choose there |
14:06 | jwagner | Right. As I said, I'm not logged in right now so I can't look. Is there anything in the settings that says "this notice is for overdues" as opposed to "this notice is for circ stuff"? I don't remember. |
14:06 | kf | perhaps a new option for notices - module overdue notices and show only those on notice triggers page |
14:06 | i think it shows all from circulation | |
14:07 | chris_n | I'm going to open two bugs then: one for the documentation and one for a general rework of overduerules.pl |
14:07 | jwagner | Then yes, kf, making a new notice modules just for overdues & having the notice triggers only show those would work. |
14:08 | kf | serials routing list and claim serial issues are already differnet modules, so its not really koha modules in this list |
14:08 | * jwagner | stamps my foot and pouts. I want my VPN connection back! |
14:11 | nengard | jwagner you need to install virtualbox and then Koha on that - so you don't need vpn |
14:11 | * chris_n | empathizes with jwagner |
14:11 | kf | ah, im quoted in bugzilla |
14:11 | chris_n | when mine is down, I have to drive about 30 mins to fix it :-P |
14:11 | kf: sometimes that is the easiest way to describe the issue :) | |
14:12 | * jdavidb | makes a not to go visit jwagner, and set her up a virtualbox sandbox or two or three. |
14:12 | then turns the not into a note. | |
14:13 | nengard | okay - i kind of go lost - what's the deal with the triggers? I think an easy fix is to remove the default advanced notice that's found in there - that at least solved part of the problem? right? |
14:14 | jwagner | Sorry, my workmen are here so I got called away. I hope they get the VPN up soon :-( |
14:14 | chris_n | nengard: probably consulting with jwagner and kf will be better as my understanding is very poor atm |
14:15 | kf | chris_n: I m not always sure my english is really understandable |
14:15 | chris_n | kf: I understand you just fine :) |
14:15 | jwagner | nengard, the problem is that the triggers page allows selection of other types of notices, including advance notices, that aren't controlled by the overdues script |
14:15 | nengard | chris_n i think that originally the advanced notice was going to be handled by those triggers, but then it was added to the patron enahnced messaging moduel |
14:16 | kf | and please remove default library or make it work! |
14:16 | chris_n | kf: please add that to bug 4171 |

15:46 | chris_n | quick! another kitten on the floor! |
15:46 | jwagner | Meowwwwww |
15:48 | chris_n | imho it seems that overdue notices could be wrapped up in the same code |
15:48 | errr... code for messaging in general that is | |
15:49 | wizzyrea | chris_n I think I"m with you on that |
15:49 | jwagner | chris_n, you mean into the OPAC tab code? I think that should probably be kept separate. |
15:49 | That's just a display on/off switch for the OPAC, doesn't do anything substantive on staff side. | |
15:50 | * jwagner | redirects my cursing to Pepco -- they apparently cut the power to our building for a while. |
15:50 | chris_n | jwagner: sorry, I jumped trains of thought there |
15:51 | * jwagner | starts singing Wreck of the Old '97.... |
15:51 | chris_n | I meant all messaging be rolled into one |
15:51 | this interface is *much* less confusing than the overduerules.pl interface | |
15:51 | jwagner | It really does annoy me that you have to have Enhanced Messaging on just to be able to send emails when holds are triggered. Even if you don't want to use the other stuff like SMS, advance notice, etc. |
15:53 | chris_n | why not have the messaging on always and default to do not send? |
15:54 | jwagner | My biggest gripe is with the SMS option always showing. If it's there, patrons think it's functional, but it requires additional setup on the staff end & library may not want to use it at all. |
15:56 | kf | chris_n: I dont think you can use one interface - for example I think there is dev for itemtype instead of patron category - so it would not work as a standard setting for patron category |
15:56 | jwagner | Yippee! I think my desktop is back up. Back in a few. |

16:16 | nengard | okay - but i haven't gotten it to work yet ... |
16:17 | schuster | you indicate where you want the output to be put and filename. perl check-url.pl -html -htmldir=/kohaclone/checkurl.html -host=http://localhost:8080 |
16:17 | nengard | OH! |
16:17 | got it | |
16:17 | biglego joined #koha | |
16:17 | schuster | -htmldir=/kohaclone/ tells the pl where to put the output and the checkurl.html - is the file it creates you can name it whatever you want. |
16:18 | then once it completes you can go to http://localhost:8080/checkurl.html - to see the output with links to the bib. | |
16:18 | jwagner | schuster, you're talking about the default of where to put the output? I'd suggest someplace that's normally web accessible, like somewhere under the koha-tmpl tree. |
16:19 | schuster | yes - remember this is a cron job so the person doing the cron can assign it -htmldir=/kohaclone/koha-tmpl/..../checkforbadurl.html |
16:20 | I was wondering about if we did that we could actually add the file name etc... to the koha tools page for easier access or let the admin tell the cataloger where to find the file? | |
16:21 | anything in /kohaclone/ is web accessible so that is where we dropped it on my server. | |
16:21 | FYI it runs on 3.00.042 if anyone is interested in playing with it jwagner... | |
16:22 | jwagner | Not set up for it yet, schuster, but I'll look forward to it. |
16:22 | schuster | you should be able to just drop it into the cron directory and make it go... |

19:45 | moodaepo | heh |
19:46 | jwagner | Speaking of ice fishing, one of my most cherished memories of wandering around Maine in late winter was a parking lot next to a lake. Lots of vehicles out on the frozen lake with people ice fishing. |
19:46 | In the parking lot, a truck with a sign on it reading "Underwater Recovery Specialists" | |
19:46 | jdavidb | moodaepo: The one time I went ice fishing, I kept hearing this loud voice, every time I'd get ready to cut into the ice, saying, "There are no fish under the ice..." I finally said, "Lord, if they're not here, where are they?" and the voice replied, "This is not God. This is the rink announcer... |
19:48 | moodaepo | jdavidb: Nice. I have to say I am an expat from Chicago and have not gone ice fishing in the 5 years I'm been round these parts. Might do it just to tell the city folks I've done and gone native : ) |
19:48 | jdavidb | My tale is not uncommon for persons who attempt ice-fishing in Dallas. |

21:30 | wizzyrea | this may be another of my projects on my never ending list of projects :P |
21:30 | biglego | time for the followup question to my creating a new tool link yesterday |
21:30 | chris | wow, go to camp and deals explode |
21:31 | biglego | are there some generic include and template files to start with or do i need to start carving up some of the ones already there |
21:31 | pianohackr|work | biglego: The latter, unfortunately |
21:32 | Fortunately, many of the tools are recent additions, so the code's reasonably clean | |
21:32 | biglego | any recommendations on the most generic to start with |
21:32 | wizzyrea | ya, things just went all esplodey |
21:33 | pianohackr|work | biglego: Depends a bit on what you plan to do |
21:34 | wizzyrea | I wonder if in the install script, since the git documentation on the wiki suggests kohaclone as the directory, we should make the install instructions mirror that |
21:34 | so suggest /home/X/kohaclone instead of /home/X/koha-dev | |
21:35 | or change the wiki >.. | |
21:35 | >.> | |
21:35 | and the installation script, too | |
21:35 | pianohackr|work | Hrm. I think kohaclone as the git tree and koha-dev as the base install directory is the convention |
21:35 | biglego: Also, it sounds like you're editing the files in the extracted source archive, and not the actual installed ones | |
21:36 | wizzyrea | scratch that, you're right |
21:36 | of course you are right. lol | |
21:36 | strike that last suggestion | |
21:37 | pianohackr|work | I personally use a different directory, but I'm obsessive-compulsive like that |
21:37 | wizzyrea | eh, tis your right. :) |
21:38 | biglego | pianohacker I am, what I do is just rename my working directory as I try things out. I'm kinda new to this whole development thing so i'm bumbling along |
21:38 | pianohackr|work | I think the existing names are a teensy bit confusing, but whatever :) |
21:38 | biglego | scratch that I am working with the installed files in my directory |
21:39 | pianohackr|work | biglego: If you're doing many custom changes at all, you might want to look into http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?[…]lopment:git_usage |
21:39 | biglego | usr/share/koha |
21:39 | pianohackr|work | Some learning time to start, but it will make your life ten times easier in the long run |
21:40 | biglego | probably a worthwhile investment |
21:40 | wizzyrea | can you turn on the memcached support after install time? I'd like to test it out (at some point) but not right now |
21:40 | chris | yes you can |
21:40 | wizzyrea | kool |
21:40 | ty | |
21:40 | pianohackr|work | wizzyrea: Yup, you just have to add a couple lines to your koha-conf.xml |
21:40 | chris | you just need to add 2 lines to the conf fle |
21:40 | wizzyrea | so... I would add 2 lines to the conf file then? |
21:40 | ;) | |

21:46 | wizzyrea | that is brilliant, thanks for doing that |
21:46 | chris_n | you can even just update one or two if you like |
21:46 | or 50 | |
21:46 | or all | |
21:47 | biglego | in a nutshell i install the latest greatest Head master, and then use it to write my changes to the files I edit |
21:47 | then I can rollback to originals if I screw up my clone | |
21:47 | pianohackr|work | basically, yes |
21:48 | biglego | okay i thought i had the concept |
21:48 | pianohackr|work | http://www.kernel.org/pub/soft[…]/gittutorial.html might be useful, though you can skip some steps as you're starting with an existing project |
21:49 | wizzyrea | and these guys (and gals) are very patient/helpful to git nubs. |
21:49 | * wizzyrea | is a git nub |
21:49 | pianohackr|work | chris_n: One very tiny code nitpick I see is !$a && !$b rather than !($a || $b), though that's as much personal preference as anything |
21:49 | cait | 3.4 - 3.2 is not released and I already long for 3.4 features :) |
21:49 | pianohackr|work | hehe |
21:50 | wizzyrea: I think chris is the only one of us who _isn't_ a git nub. It takes a little getting used to :) | |
21:50 | * chris_n | is sure his coding style very much stands to be improved ;-) |
21:51 | biglego | cool the bar i'm hiding from the snow in has powerstrips at each booth |
21:51 | gmcharlt | wizzyrea: there was a time when the Koha git reference page came up pretty high on a google search on 'git tutorial' |
21:52 | wizzyrea | it *is* a pretty epic tutorial, actually. I use it *all the time* |
21:52 | biglego | so another stupid question should I reinstall with git or is there away to update my current install via git to the most current. |
21:53 | Genji joined #koha | |
21:53 | biglego | I guess I should just go ahead and get on the 3.2 bandwagon anyway |
21:53 | pianohackr|work | I think reinstalling from scratch is a _bit_ easier, though you can keep your db |
21:54 | Do in-place 3.0.x -> 3.2 master upgrades work? | |
21:54 | Ropuch | I've just updated 3.00.05 to head with no errors |
21:54 | HA! | |
21:54 | pianohackr|work | Ropuch++ |
21:54 | biglego | i'm on 3.04 |
21:54 | Ropuch | pianohackr|work: all bugsquasher++ |
21:54 | gmcharlt | pianohackr|work: not quite yet - you have to deal with some DB errors and the like |
21:54 | pianohackr|work | ahh, okay |
21:55 | Ropuch | I've just installed head, imported my sql dump and run the installer |
21:55 | chris_n | k, time to leave... can't stand the fun any longer :-) |
21:55 | biglego | as long as I can import my patrons and bibs i don't mind recreating config settings I spent a good deal of time simplifying |

22:33 | wizzyrea | brendan: it's the weekend, no working! |
22:33 | brendan | heh - gotta answer a question then I'm gone |
22:33 | same to you too :) | |
22:41 | brendan left #koha | |
22:45 | wizzyrea | 18 minutes :) |
22:47 | the installer was smooth as butter. Love it. | |
22:47 | pianohackr|work | has it changed? |
22:48 | wizzyrea | I had a lot less trouble this time, fwiw |
22:49 | Genji left #koha | |
22:49 | wizzyrea | that is to say, followed the docs on a clean install, and was able to do it step for step (with one tiny change) |
22:49 | so either 1. i'm smarter or 2. it's smarter. | |
22:49 | :P | |
22:49 | maybe both | |
22:52 | pianohackr|work | Or 3. You're slowly getting numb to its breed of insanity |
22:52 | wizzyrea | no, I don't think that's it |
22:52 | but it's funny all the same | |
23:39 | pianohackr|work | In case anybody cares; the step where you install dselect to apply the package selections on a lenny installed can be replaced with an apt-get dselect-upgrade, afaict |
23:40 | cait | good night :) |

23:41 | pianohackr|work | slef: around? |
23:48 | chris_n | does overdue_notices.pl log to anywhere? |
23:48 | pianohackr|work | I don't think so, besides stdout |
23:49 | It can output failed messages as csv, but that's basically it | |
23:52 | chris_n | hmm |
23:52 | perl overdue_notices.pl -csv | |
23:52 | name;surname;address1;address2;zipcode;city;country;email;itemcount;itemsinfo | |
23:52 | is all I get | |
23:52 | and no emails | |
23:52 | pianohackr|work | There is a verbose flag |
