03:22 | schuster | chris - when I did git branch I see master and *mywork |
03:22 | chris | that means you are on the mywork branch |
03:23 | schuster | ok - so what should I do to get this up to the current head? |
03:24 | chris | current master .. what you do is git fetch |
03:24 | git rebase origin/master | |
03:24 | schuster | and it doesn't matter which branch I'm in right? |
03:25 | chris | yes it does |
03:25 | schuster | so which branch do I want to be in when I do that? |
03:25 | chris | depends, i dont know what you use mywork for |
03:25 | id probably do it on master first | |
03:25 | git checkout master | |
03:26 | schuster | ok - I'm pretty sure there isn't anything in mywork - |
03:27 | it tells me master is up to date. | |
03:27 | chris | you did the fetch and rebase eh? |
03:28 | schuster | no didn't fetch - sorry so I should do that and then rebase ok |
03:28 | chris | yes |
03:30 | Amit joined #koha | |

06:12 | zen | hello |
06:14 | kf | hi zen |
06:16 | zen | i am working @branch library and i am installing koha 3.0.06 and i want to integtated my koha with the main library koha |
06:17 | Elwell_ joined #koha | |
06:17 | Elwell left #koha | |
06:18 | kf | zen: what do you mean by integrating? a |
06:20 | zen | kf: we use different koha servers when my patrons wants to search data @main library they should have to open the main server |
06:21 | kf | so you don't want to share one catalog? |
06:21 | zen | no,what i want is there any mechansim that i can have a copy of the main library at my koha server. |
06:22 | kf | I am not sure how to do it |
06:22 | perhaps you could use oai | |
06:22 | I read some people have done similar things, but we have never done something like that | |
06:24 | zen | i try to google it but the most result i have got is integration with SIP something like. |
06:25 | kf | sip is for self checkout |
06:25 | checkout, return, patron info | |
06:25 | oai-pmh | |
06:26 | or perhaps pazpar2 | |
06:27 | perhaps you could also do something on mysql level | |
06:27 | but what would the copy on your server be good for? | |
06:28 | Amit | heya kf |
06:29 | kf | hi Amit |
06:30 | alex_a joined #koha | |
06:30 | zen | kf: for example i am working at agriculture library so in my database there is only agriculture bibliographic data when user wants IT data he should have to open the main koha server. |
06:31 | kf | hm, sounds complicated for the user :) |
06:32 | but why have a copy? can't he acces the main koha server via internet? | |
06:34 | zen | it is not a good a solution cause the branch is far 100 mile from main and the interent is not stable,but if i can dump the bibliographic data of the main library the user can easily get the data. |
06:36 | kf | hm ok, but he will not be able to place holds or see the real availablity |
06:38 | zen | the question is can we integrate (connect) two mysql databases from different koha servers |

07:51 | magnus | guten tag, kf |
07:54 | chris: i didn't quite catch the situation with the main blocking bug for 3.2 - is there a patch that solves it or is the solution only partial so there has to be more patches for it? | |
07:57 | chris | the patch doesnt solve it |
07:58 | colin tested it and it still isnt quite right, its blocking anyone who uses acquisitons from being able to upgrade | |
07:58 | i added to the bug how i did it manual | |

11:34 | forced_restart-- | |
11:34 | hdl: around? | |
11:34 | hdl | kf: yep |
11:34 | kf | we have a new customer with RFID, they want to use 3M |
11:35 | http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]tization_solution | |
11:35 | hdl | work like a charm |
11:35 | kf | great :) |
11:35 | has the universite self check? | |
11:35 | jwagner | Hi Amit |
11:35 | hdl | kf: yep |
11:35 | kf | hi jwagner :) |
11:35 | jwagner | Hi kf |
11:35 | hdl | using sip_server.sh |
11:35 | using sip_start.sh | |
11:35 | sorry | |
11:35 | kf | no problem |
11:36 | we already have one library using rfid | |
11:36 | but with another vendor | |
11:36 | 3M called and asked about Koha and SIP and I told them there are already other libraries using 3M - no searching for examples | |
11:36 | now | |
11:37 | hdl | we have many libraries using that atm |
11:37 | Mines paris-tech Lyon3 for instance | |
11:37 | kf | great, thx |
11:37 | is the old doc still relevant? | |
11:38 | http://koha.org/documentation/[…]sip2-integration? | |
11:39 | hdl | yep atz++ |
11:39 | kf | cool - thx for your help! |
11:39 | hdl | kf: there is a wrapper for perl -I./ ./SIPServer.pm ./SIPServer.xml >~/sip_log.out 2>~/sip_log.err & |
11:39 | sip_start | |
11:41 | kf | ? |
11:41 | sorry, I don't understand | |
11:42 | I know about the xml configuration file, but the start/stop/reset things is my coworker's part | |
11:42 | :) | |
11:42 | hdl | i.e. rather than using perl -I./ ./SIPServer.pm ./SIPServer.xml >~/sip_log.out 2>~/sip_log.err & |
11:43 | use sip_run.sh SIPServer.xml ~/sip_log.out ~/sip_log.err | |
11:43 | kf | do yoour libraries renew via sip? |
11:43 | hdl | I think so |
11:44 | it is also managed and controlled in the 3M configuration interface | |
11:44 | kf | hm? |
11:44 | hdl | you can enable it i |
11:44 | in SIPconfig.xml | |
11:45 | kf | ah, I think we did that |
11:45 | hdl | But you also have to enable that on the selfcheckout engine |
11:45 | kf | but our tests were a bit problematic |
11:51 | ok, thx a lot again :) | |
11:51 | today is crazy friday - a lot of phone calls | |
11:54 | hdl: are those libraries using "standard" koha, or did you have to change something to make it all work? | |
11:58 | nah, I believe it will work - it does for our other library too. | |
12:08 | nengard | got a question about issues - i'm looking at data in my system and it looks like once an item is marked lost it is no longer in the issues table or the old_issues table ...does a record of that checkout just disappear? |
12:08 | hdl | kf: it is standard SIP |
12:08 | service | |
12:09 | kf | hdl: great :) |
12:09 | nengard: ouch | |
12:09 | nengard | if it disappears - um - yes - ouch |
12:10 | but does it for others? | |
12:10 | kf | sorry, can't test right now |

12:43 | nengard | does anyone know if there is a way to have today's date print at the top of notices? |
12:43 | maybe a shortcode we can add to the notice templates? | |
12:53 | okay - a different question - when does the HOLDPLACED notice get sent? Where does this come into play? it's not a choice on enhanced messages | |
12:55 | kf | nengard: sys pref |
12:55 | nengard | checking now |
12:55 | kf | nengard: the notice send to the librarian that a hold was placed |
12:55 | nengard | OH RIGHT!!! |
12:55 | Thank you :) | |
12:56 | kf | you are welcome :) |
12:56 | I think it was not really working for a long time and the sample notice is quite new too | |
12:58 | nengard | i was blinded by the question i was being asked- which focused on patrons getting the email and forgot to think about the librarian :) |
12:59 | kf | I can totally understand |
13:00 | the date is a good idea too! | |
13:09 | nengard | kf - okay found a problem - might have a bug to report |
13:09 | the customer has shown me that this message is being send to patrons ... not just librarians!!! | |
13:09 | uh oh | |
13:09 | kf | *sighs* |
13:09 | today that does not surprise me | |
13:09 | nengard | need to poke at this a bit before we report anything, just an fyi for you |

13:15 | nengard | morning |
13:15 | - not sure it's good ... finding too many problems this morning :( | |
13:16 | jcamins | nengard: I can relate to that. The Department of Corporations misspelled my LLC's name, so I'll probably spend the next month arguing with them over getting it fixed. |
13:16 | nengard | ick! |
13:17 | mine are all koha issues ... | |
13:17 | i'm signing up for a perl class - but until then there are too many issues i don't know how to troubleshoot :( | |
13:17 | kf | oooh |
13:17 | * kf | want a perl class too |
13:18 | kf | never thought about it, strange |
13:18 | nengard: the new issue notifications will work ok after the 2 patches are applied | |
13:19 | nengard | cool |

13:33 | nengard | there are such things as search groups ... |
13:33 | i don't know that they work though :) | |
13:34 | Genji | yeah.. search groups/ domains.... hmm... |
13:40 | in code, search groups are 'categories' in branches.pl? | |

15:24 | I thought that might help a bit. | |
15:25 | My wife (wow does it feel weird to say that!) was very impressed that it came out... she was predicting disaster based on the maniacal laughing and complete lack of a plan, but it turns out you can use a berry crumble recipe to make chocolate pudding and cake by replacing the berries with water/gelatin/chocolate, and the biscuit topping with cake/cookie batter. :) | |

15:26 | jcamins | Berry cobbler, sorry. I always get the two confused. :) |
15:26 | wizzyrea | you must be happy |
15:26 | because you were cooking with your feelings, and happy people get good results ;) | |
15:27 | whenever we have a "I don't have a plan for dinner I"m cooking with my feelings" the hubs and I always ask each other if we're feeling happy | |
15:27 | :P | |
15:29 | jcamins | Heh. That's a good point. |
15:29 | wizzyrea | and we know it's just better to order in if we're not feeling happy ;) |
15:30 | jcamins | But, of course I'm happy... I got married a week ago, and I was baking something with chocolate! (the heat is really starting to get to me... it had been ages since I baked anything with chocolate) |
15:31 | (to clarify, I can't bake really when it's hot out, because we'd die of heat prostration if we used the oven... and baking is one of my favorite activities) | |
15:32 | sekjal | jcamins: at least it's almost autumn |
15:32 | hopefully this heat will knock off after Labor Day | |
15:33 | jcamins | I hope so! We have no bread at all in the freezer anymore. I was forced to buy bread last week! ;) |
15:33 | sekjal | would that I had more time to bake and cook |
15:34 | we do at least get bread delivered with our produce, though | |
15:34 | save that trip to the store | |
15:34 | hdl left #koha | |
15:35 | jcamins | Last winter I had a lot of free time, and learned to make bread (over the course of two days) with only about an hour of effort for 6-10 loaves. |
15:35 | wizzyrea | oh yea, I've heard of that method, did that earlier this summer |
15:35 | laurence left #koha | |
15:35 | wizzyrea | but it turns out I'm mostly too lazy for even that |
15:36 | lol, how sad. | |
15:36 | to admit that. | |
15:36 | jcamins | Heh. I added up how much it costs to buy a loaf of bread from the baker on the corner, and how much it costs to bake my own (and also the relative enjoyment of the two), and made a concerted effort all spring and the first part of summer to bake all my bread. |
15:37 | On a Koha-related subject: is it possible to create a framework based on a template record? | |
15:37 | wizzyrea | that would certainly be epic to be able to do that |
15:37 | creating frameworks is so painful. | |
15:38 | jcamins | I know. We have about... oh, a billion, frameworks left to create. |

16:47 | sekjal | has anyone in here tried following up on the removal of tablesort from the circ/circulation.pl screen, in order to improve checkout speed? |
16:48 | this was brought up on the list a little while ago | |
16:51 | wizzyrea | you know what, I can't even remember a single time I've seen someone actually sort that table |
16:52 | you know the one that needs to be sorted and isn't? The holds queue report. | |
16:52 | s/sorted/sortable | |
16:52 | sekjal | I'm thinking of adding a system preference to toggle Tablesort on the circ page |
16:53 | it really seems to be slowing people down, and it'd be nice if they could opt to make the tradeoff | |

17:41 | i just compiled the list | |
17:41 | i assume you found this: http://www.youtube.com/group/kohails | |
17:41 | jcamins | Yeah, that's what I'm looking at. |
17:42 | Now I just need to craft a diplomatic message which points out that patrons spend more time waiting for me to do a search for them than they would spend watching the videos. | |
17:52 | Hm. All the videos seem to include words like "OPAC" or "keyword." Understandably, of course. | |
17:52 | chris_n | wow.. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38[…]news-asiapacific/ |
17:53 | hope the NZ folks are ok | |

18:06 | wizzyrea | we saw! did you feel it? |
18:07 | chris | yup |
18:07 | woke me up | |
18:07 | wizzyrea | yikes! |

18:15 | cait | really good to hear |
18:15 | Braedon | so is it 7.4 or 5.7? |
18:15 | chris_n | chris: you can even log an "I felt it" report on that site |
18:15 | * chris_n | wonders if the usgs is experiencing a typo difficulty |

18:17 | chris | http://www.geonet.org.nz/earth[…]ums/mqz-drum.html |
18:17 | still tons of aftershocks in chch | |
18:17 | wizzyrea | that graph kind of makes it look like it was ramping up |
18:17 | chris_n | low frequency resonance is an amazing thing |
18:17 | wizzyrea | tiny ones that you couldn't really feel, getting slightly larger, then BOOM |
18:18 | * wizzyrea | likes graphs |
18:20 | Braedon | perhaps usgs is in local magnitude and geonet in moment magnitude, or vice versa? |
18:21 | wizzyrea | hm, geonet powered by plone |
18:21 | interesting | |
18:22 | Braedon | http://earthquake.usgs.gov/ear[…]es/us2010atbj.php |
18:23 | they have two logged | |
18:30 | chris | http://www.stuff.co.nz/nationa[…]hits-South-Island <-- photos |
18:30 | wizzyrea | !! oh no! |
18:33 | Braedon | stuff's last updated timestamp is a bit off is it not? |
18:33 | chris | 6:04 ? |
18:33 | looks ok to me | |
18:33 | wizzyrea | was gonna say, seems plausible |
18:33 | Braedon | i only got up at 6:09 and plenty has chnaged since i first saw the page |
18:35 | chris | its only updated when they change the story, not attach thngs to it |
18:35 | Braedon | ahh, ok |
18:35 | chris | its on cnn now |
18:35 | if anyone has cnn | |
18:36 | cantebury tv is off the air | |
18:43 | tvnz is talking about stupid business crap, our media are slightly retarded | |
18:43 | get a god damned reporter there already | |
18:43 | wizzyrea | you have family near christchurch? or no? |
18:45 | Braedon | chris: yeah, i just checked them. i would have assumed at least one channel would have changed their regular programming |
18:46 | chris | yep, my grandma and my uncle and aunt |
18:47 | Braedon | are any of the regulars here from that far down? |
18:47 | chris | nope |
18:48 | http://www.stuff.co.nz/nationa[…]hits-South-Island | |
18:48 | slideshow now | |
18:49 | once again stuff is winning the breaking news race | |
18:49 | damn, that car is wrecked | |
18:50 | they dont normally get quakes down there, so lots more brick than say wellington | |
18:50 | Braedon | was anyone in that building? |
18:50 | chris | nope, luckily |
18:50 | thats manchester street, all businesses so would be mostly empty | |
18:52 | Braedon | in auckland a lot of business upstairs floors like that are flats |
18:53 | chris | judging by the forsale sign, it might have been empty empty |
18:53 | which is lucky | |
18:53 | Braedon | ahh, tru |
18:53 | didn't see that | |
18:53 | chris | not so much for the poor taxi driver |
18:53 | wizzyrea | i certainly hope he wasn't in that car |
18:53 | oh I just saw the people in that last photo | |
18:54 | the reports say there are lots of people in the street, and I was thinking "well, there's nobody in these photos!" but yea, there they are. | |
18:54 | chris | i think ppl are out and about taking photos now |
18:56 | wizzyrea | love the comments on that story |
18:56 | best use of the social web ever. | |
18:56 | "water sloshed out of the toilet" that's a mad earthquake | |

19:05 | wizzyrea | that's really good news |
19:06 | chris | my uncle is going to check on my grandma, as soon as the roads are clear enough to |
19:08 | apparently the river has changed its course and the water table is all messed up | |
19:08 | jcamins | Oh no! Do most people have well water? |
19:09 | chris | nope, but lots of surface flooding |
19:10 | jcamins | Well, that's something... it can take months to fix a poisoned well. |
19:10 | chris | pipes will be busted too, so clean water is going to be the next problem |
19:11 | wizzyrea | there is a sentence you don't see every day: the river has changed it's course |
19:11 | chris | http://twitpic.com/2kwhsv |
19:11 | Braedon | those brick facades really don't hold up too well do they |

19:15 | chris | yeah, act of god too, so insurance is probably gonna try not to have to pay |
19:15 | wizzyrea | mutter. |
19:15 | insurance. | |
19:15 | chris | buildings etc ppl often have an earthquake levy, so they are ok |
19:15 | cars otoh | |
19:16 | moodaepo | Wonder if it's better to have an earthquake during the day or late night |
19:16 | chris | night i think, more scary but less people in office blocks |
19:16 | moodaepo | Probably bad either way for different reasons |
19:16 | chris | at least in christchurch most people live in single story houses |
19:17 | Braedon | yeah, depends on the buildings. NZ probably better at night |
19:17 | moodaepo | True if it's flat complexes might be pretty bad |
19:17 | chris | which is a much better place to be than on the 4th floor of an office block |

19:49 | (looking at how they did it) | |
19:49 | I totally don't understand it, but I'm impressed anyway. | |

19:49 | jcamins | I think every single line and dot is a separate image. |

20:27 | gmcharlt | indradg: not to my knowledge; it would mostly be a matter of a lot of bookkeeping (setting up MARC frameworks, indexing configs, display configs, etc.) |
20:28 | but (assuming that community info records were the only thing residing in the database) you could treat them as bibs | |
20:29 | making CI records live alongside bib records would take more work | |
20:29 | indradg | gmcharlt, that was what I was thinking too |
20:29 | sekjal left #koha | |
