01:22 libsysguy1 anybody around that can maybe give me a brief rundown of the accountlines table?
01:22 rangi theres a website for that
01:22 jcamins It's evil.
01:22 libsysguy1 well it is less about the structure
01:22 rangi http://schema.koha-community.o[…]accountlines.html
01:23 libsysguy1 cursed schema page :p
01:23 the breakdown of charges is in that table right?
01:24 so if I have two overdue books there would be two tuples?
01:26 rangi yes
01:26 libsysguy1 ok thanks rangi++
01:27 seen slef
01:27 wahanui slef was last seen on #koha 1 days, 6 hours, 55 minutes and 53 seconds ago, saying: biab [Mon Oct 10 18:32:02 2011]
01:28 libsysguy1 so who knows if slef is a play on words for $self
01:28 rangi its a typo of self
01:28 that stuck
01:28 libsysguy1 i knew it!!
01:28 rangi :)
01:29 libsysguy1 i keep making that typo when i am writing my OOPerl stuff

04:14 jransom I got my travel documents today
04:14 I get there on the 22nd October
04:14 and leave on the 12th
04:15 ethian: my visa took weeks to get
04:16 eythian I sent mine on the 26th, they put it in the post today.
04:16 so, a bit over 2 weeks.
04:29 Amit_Gupta hmm
04:30 heya eythian
04:30 eythian hello
05:05 Oak joined #koha
05:07 cait joined #koha
05:07 cait morning #koha
05:07 Oak Guten Tag cait
05:07 cait hi Oak
05:07 Oak kia ora #koha
05:08 eythian cait: you're up late.
05:08 cait lol
05:08 I can never make you happy, can I?
05:09 eythian nope :D
05:09 cait thought so hehe
05:09 * wizzyrea readies the slapping trout
05:09 cait ?
05:10 wizzyrea never mind
05:10 rangi hi cait and wizzyrea
05:11 and oak
05:11 * wizzyrea waves
05:11 Oak oh hello rangi
05:11 rangi late night wizzyrea ?
05:11 wizzyrea yes and no - it's by choice
05:11 stupid glitch.
05:11 cait lol
05:11 stupid glitch
05:12 and hi rangi
05:13 Amit_Gupta heya cait
05:13 cait hi Amit_Gupta
05:14 Oak cait, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhJQp-q1Y1s
05:14 cait lol
05:14 Oak :)
05:15 now you know
05:15 next time wizzyrea readies the slapping trout, get your helmet!
05:15 cait I think it was not for me
05:15 wizzyrea?
05:15 wahanui I LIKE BAO or all about the resluts
05:15 wizzyrea nope
05:15 resluts.
05:15 cait :)
05:16 wizzyrea mhm
05:16 Oak oh well
05:26 rangi hmm
05:26 cait eythian: 6199?
05:30 eythian cait: yep
05:31 cait glad you finally believed me :P
05:32 eythian it was working for me the whole time, but I think maybe there'd been a change somewhere that upset it, and you were on a newer version (or something like that.)
05:33 cait but you found the problem?
05:34 eythian yeah
05:34 cait cool :)
05:34 eythian someone had added stuff that modified the record (stripping the item details) when it needed them later when it attempted to readd them.
05:37 huginn New commit(s) needsignoff: [Bug 6199] Allow bulkmarcimport to blank duplicate barcodes rather than skipping items <http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6199> / [Bug 7008] Sometimes zebra needs a tmp directory that it doesn't create itself <http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7008>
05:41 eythian sweet, first draft of a soon-to-be-Koha-library migration from Liberty completed in about 3 days.
05:41 cait :)
05:41 eythian (most of which was dealing with crazy character set issues.)
05:41 cait sounds pretty normal
05:41 eythian yep
05:42 the data had ligatures in it, defined by control characters.
05:42 which is super-crazy.
05:42 they weren't normal ligatures like æ either
05:43 but ones you use typesetting, like making 'fi' one character.
05:47 cait ok?
05:47 that sounds a bit weird
05:49 eythian it is a lot weird.
05:49 My assumption is that they copy-pasted content from a PDF, which does that sort of thing.
05:49 cait hm
05:49 perhaps
05:50 eythian I hate our internal DNS management tool, I very nearly deleted an entire company domain when I intended to just delete a subdomain.
05:51 Oak hm, detective cait and detective eythian working on a case. cool :)
05:51 cait lol
05:51 Oak :^)
06:01 laurence joined #koha
06:06 Amit_Gupta heya laurence
06:06 laurence hi Amit_Gupta
06:10 cait hmpf
06:10 Can't use string ("1") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /home/katrin/kohaclone/acqui/booksellers.pl line 118.
06:10 it doesn't like the change ian suggests
06:11 $loggedinuser->{'flags'} & 1
06:13 ok, I see it
06:13 never mind
06:16 eythian happy to help.
06:18 cait eythian:
06:18 you still can help
06:18 because it's still not working
06:18 got past the perl error
06:18 but it's still not showing me all baskets when I am a superlibraian
06:19 eythian what's the bug number?
06:19 cait 6390
06:19 I changed the superlibrarian line ot
06:19 if ($userenv->{'flags'} & '1' ||
06:20 eythian what line number/file?
06:20 Amit_Gupta hdl around
06:20 ??
06:21 ropuch Morning #koha
06:22 Amit_Gupta heya ropuch
06:22 eythian cait: also, no need for '' around the 1 (although it shouldn't hurt, but it might)
06:22 cait: and I'd bracket defensively there
06:22 so, if (($userenv->{'flags'} & 1) ||
06:25 cait ah
06:25 the '' are not there, sorry
06:25 eythian: basket.pl
06:25 patch attached to bug
06:26 defensively?
06:26 ropuch cait: still strugling with superlibrarian check?
06:26 cait yep
06:26 eythian cait: there are two patches on that bug, and neither touches basket.pl
06:26 ropuch Any success?
06:29 cait oh yes
06:29 bookseller.pl...
06:29 sorry
06:29 running around, getting ready for work
06:29 and the second patch
06:30 eythian I would expect & 1 to return true if the flag indicates the person is a superlibrarian
06:31 cait but it doesn't :(
06:31 reiveune joined #koha
06:31 cait I have set the sys pref to 'only baskets created by this user'
06:31 and the user has superlibrarian rights
06:31 but still not all baskets show up
06:31 only the user's
06:31 reiveune hello
06:32 reiveune left #koha
06:32 reiveune joined #koha
06:32 eythian cait: perhaps throw 'warn's in where you expect the code to go, and see where it's going and what values it has
06:32 cait http://paste.koha-community.org/74
06:33 Oak magnuse
06:33 eythian that's some terrible code really
06:33 Oak hello reiveune
06:34 eythian a 5-line if condition is never going to be debuggable.
06:34 cait I know
06:34 rangi id do a warn $userenv->{'flags'};
06:34 before the if
06:34 eythian yeah, it's a good place to start
06:35 I'd be inclined to split that if into multiple parts.
06:35 cait eythian: feel free to improve it
06:35 magnuse Oak
06:35 eythian cait: feel free to write my kohacon talk ;)
06:35 cait :P
06:36 magnuse kia ora #koha
06:37 reiveune hi Oak, cait, magnuse, everybody
06:37 cait hi reiveune and magnuse
06:38 magnuse bonjour reiveune and cait et al
06:41 cait eythian: thx for looking at it :)
06:42 eythian: and I know it's ugly - but only saying it's ugly is not helpful :)
06:42 eythian well, if you split it into parts, then you debug each part of it separately.
06:42 which is helpful :)
06:43 cait eythian: I can do that
06:43 but the other parts work
06:43 it's really only the superlibrarian part that's broken
06:43 the sysprefs overwrite it, because it's never 0
06:43 um 1
06:44 eythian you're not testing if it's one, you testing if it's an odd number.
06:44 which means that the superlibrarian bit is set
06:44 which is what & 1 does, it just gives you bit number 1, and if its set it's true
06:45 that explanation was a little too sbstract perhaps
06:45 rangi :)
06:45 in summary, it tests for odd number
06:45 alex_a hello
06:45 eythian but, I'd start by printing out the flags.
06:46 rangi yeah it was even
06:46 261886
06:46 eythian oh right
06:46 yeah, so not a superlibrarian
06:46 no cape.
06:46 rangi which i think is caused if you have more than superlibrarian set
06:46 eythian noo, shouldn't be
06:46 rangi hmm
06:46 * eythian isn't testing this right now, so take it with a grain of salt
06:47 rangi yep its easy to test
06:47 eythian but, if superlib is set, it should always be odd.
06:47 rangi warn it
06:47 eythian I think
06:47 julian_m joined #koha
06:47 eythian Unless bit 1 isn't superlib, in which case the whole & 1 thing is wrong anyway
06:47 I think haspermissions should understand superlibrarians.
06:47 It's silly for every bit of code to have to check
06:48 rangi yeah
06:48 Amit_Gupta any body try koha with solr
06:49 Oak i hv nt Amit_Gupta
06:49 Amit_Gupta hi Oak
06:49 Oak :) hi
06:51 * eythian mosies along
06:51 julian_m hello!
06:51 cait eythian: I think it did once, there is code like that, only it does not work
06:54 permission_system--
06:54 grrr

08:33 rangi hehe
08:33 alex_a1 joined #koha
08:33 rangi gotta get past wales first
08:34 :)
08:34 paul_p yep. And you will have to get past your aussies friends
08:34 rangi im glad they won
08:34 easier to beat them than south africa
08:34 quade cooper cant tackle
08:34 they only have 14 defenders :)
08:35 paul_p how to register a quote ?
08:35 I want to register "i'm glad Australia won" !!!!
08:35 rangi hehe
08:35 well out of australia and south africa
08:35 or australia and england
08:35 i will choose australia
08:35 in rugby
08:35 in cricket, i will choose sa, and england
08:35 paul_p too late, you said "i'm glad australia won". I heard it! ;-)
08:36 rangi yep, cos they are easier to beat :)
08:38 adrien_s England is easy to beat in cricket games ?! they must be sad about it :)
08:39 India won the last commonwealth games if I remember well, but I didn't notice how England got out of this
08:39 rangi no they are actually playing well
08:39 in cricket
08:39 australia are easier for nz to beat in rugby, than sa are
08:39 both are hard to beat in cricket

08:40 mtj hiya pholks
08:40 paul_p:  we are staying in vihang-inn too
08:41 paul_p KohaCon attendies will fill vihang-inn... (only 32 rooms)
08:41 (hi mtj)
08:42 mtj looks like their wifi may get a little 'stress-testing'... :p
08:42 ... and then we get stress-tested too
08:43 adrien_s will you guys learn a few hindi words ? ;P
08:43 paul_p adrien_s: you want to give us some lessons ?
08:44 (did adrien_s introduce himself here ? He's the new support guy at BibLibre)
08:45 adrien_s we talked a little bit about Germany =)
08:47 First and last hindi lesson :
08:47 I'm thirsty = mujhe pyaas lagi hai
08:47 I'm hungry = mujhe bhook lagi hai
08:47 I guess it's impossible to pronounce correctly for us, so you may die before getting a glass of water
08:49 Oak staff in hotel will understand English I think :)
08:49 mtj hi adrien :)
08:50 Oak water = pani
08:51 thirst = pyaas
08:51 thirsty = pyasaa
08:53 Thank you = Shookriya
08:53 :)
08:53 i'll stop now
09:03 * paul_p switches to "QAing bugzilla patches" mode...
09:04 kf @later tell wizzyrea: the layout on the paid for support page for Busara Core Solutions is a bit broken, can you take a look? :)
09:04 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.
09:04 kf paul_p: have a second?
09:05 paul_p kf: yep
09:05 kf I sigend off on 6292 but there is a follow up from sophie I have no test plan for
09:05 and not sure what it's supposed to fix
09:05 could you perhaps take a look?
09:07 Amit_Gupta joined #koha
09:07 Amit_Gupta hdl there
09:07 hdl around?
09:21 paul_p kf: sophie_m is around, the best would be to ask here... Isn't the comment 13 enough ? (the test plan could be "have different overdues that would trigger different level of notice. Before the patch you get more than one letter, after the patch you just get a letter of the longest odue level, with all odues listed"
09:22 rangi hmm but thats not what comment 13 says
09:22 Several letters where generated if a borrower had overdues with different
09:22 due_date triggering the same level
09:23 it says the same level of notice, not a different one
09:23 kf paul_p: I tested it for that- for me it worked without the follow-up
09:23 I am not sure which case the follow-up covers that didn't came up by testing
09:24 and triggering the same level with different due_dates is mathematically not possible - not as long as the overdues don't care about holidays
09:24 hdl Amit_Gupta:  ?
09:28 alex_a joined #koha
09:45 vorstller joined #koha
09:46 vorstller joined #koha
09:47 kf sophie_m?
09:47 wahanui sophie_m is around, the best would be to ask here... Isn't the comment 13 enough ? (the test plan could be "have different overdues that would trigger different level of notice. Before the patch you get more than one letter, after the patch you just get a letter of the longest odue level, with all odues listed"
09:47 kf forget sophie_m wahanui
09:47 wahanui: forget sophie_m
09:47 wahanui kf: I forgot sophie_m
09:47 sophie_m kf ?
09:47 wahanui kf is, like, cait or really, really sweet. or <reply>she gives me memory loss
09:48 kf paul_p said to ask you about bug 6292
09:48 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6292 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, chris, ASSIGNED , Overdue notices have a bug when multiple overdues exist
09:48 kf I was not able to find a test case for your follow-up
09:48 I would really like to see this go into 3.6
09:48 it's a great improvement
09:52 clrh joined #koha
10:16 sophie_m kf : the test case if :
10:16 you trigger level 1 after 10 days, leverl 2 after 20 and level 3 after 30
10:17 if a borrower has 2 books with overdue , one with 11 days and one with 15 for example
10:18 without the followup, two level1 letters where générated 1 for the first document and one for the second
10:19 kf hm
10:19 I don't understand that I think
10:19 sophie_m with the patch, only one letter is generated, listing both documents
10:19 kf because I think no notice shoul be generated at all
10:19 in this case
10:19 perhaps I am using the overdues differently?
10:20 are you using the overdues script with -t?
10:21 sophie_m arghh, this is when -t parameter is not used
10:22 kf ok
10:22 can you give me an example to use without -t on the bug?
10:22 how to specify the 10, 20 and 30 days limits?
10:26 hm I think I understand now
10:26 I will test it
10:27 sophie_m Admin>Tools>Overdue notice/status triggers
10:28 kf I didn't know it would still use the triggers without -t
10:28 I misunderstood the documentation
10:28 I will try it
10:28 sophie_m Should this followup be part of another bug then ?
10:28 kf I think it's ok, I will test it as soon as I can
10:29 does teh problem exist without the follow up too?
10:29 in that case we could ask paul to qa on the first and the second can go in a little later
10:30 I am leaving for lunch - will be back a little later
10:34 Amit_Gupta heya kf
10:34 hdl around?
10:35 adrien_s "Today's fish is trout à la creme !" ... Bon appetit !
11:00 kf back
11:16 hdl Amit_Gupta: ?
11:17 kf adrien_s: was Cordon Bleu - but I doubt it was really french cuisine
11:21 magnuse see ya later #koha
11:34 nengard joined #koha
11:35 Callender joined #koha
11:38 jwagner joined #koha
11:39 sophie_m kf : the followup fixes a problem that cannot occur with -t parameter
11:40 oakivil Hello #Koha. It looks like I need to modify the bulkauthimport.pl to include my custom Authorities type INDEX_TERM, copying auth field 653. I am getting a
11:40 Field 653 must have indicators (use ' ' for empty indicators) at /usr/share/perl5/MARC/File/SAX.pm line 92
11:40 -error even if I define indicators as ind1="" ind2="" to Marc21XML file, even with indicator values as 1, it gives the very same error.
11:42 collum joined #koha
11:45 oakivil I fixed the problem by adding a subfield I forgot to add
11:46 Still unsure where the bulkauthimport.pl will put my authorities with only a leader field and field 653$a defined.
11:48 NateC joined #koha
11:49 gmcharlt left #koha
11:50 kf oakivil: still around?
11:50 oakivil yes
11:50 kf thre is a line you will want to add to the import program
11:51 oakivil ok
11:51 kf hm I wonder
11:51 oakivil I think I can figure it out
11:51 kf have you tried bulkmarcimport with -a switch?
11:51 oakivil already took a peek at it and thats why I ask. To not use false workflows
11:51 nope
11:52 where should the authorities go in the database?
11:52 kf I think the table is auth_header
11:52 or something like that
11:52 wahanui i heard something like that was sticking in nengard's mind
11:52 kf forget something like that
11:52 wahanui kf: I forgot something like that
11:52 oakivil ;)
11:52 kf ok
11:52 at the moment
11:53 I think there are 2 scripts you can use to import authorities
11:53 bulkmarcimport with -a and bulkauthimport
11:53 the options both scripts provide are different
11:53 when i had looked at custom auth frameworks
11:54 I thought that adding a line to abulkauthimport for the new 1xx field should be enough
11:54 to make it work
11:54 see here:
11:54 http://git.koha-community.org/[…]eb14d427d;hb=HEAD
11:54 line 118ff
11:54 the script finds out which framework to use by looking at the main heading in 1xx
11:55 oakivil well I want to add Subject words to field 653
11:55 kf yep
11:55 oakivil like general descriptive words
11:55 kf I know
11:55 nengard is anyone here able to tell me how to get email working on my VM? I'd like to test owen's patron update email, but my system doesn't send email cause i never set it up
11:55 kf but why 653 and using authlrities?
11:55 653 is uncontrolled
11:55 that means no authority linking intended
11:55 oakivil well because it seems like the easiest step to display Koha authorities functionality
11:56 kf nengard: I can't tell you how :( but my coworker fixed it for me - can offer to try testing this tonight
11:56 oakivil and because I couldnt find a generic enough field from 1xx
11:56 kf oakivil: I would use another 6xx field
11:56 than 653
11:56 what kind of subjects do you want to put in there?
11:56 oakivil every kind of subjects
11:57 kf hm
11:57 oakivil I have a 29000 word large vocabulary
11:57 unsorted by anything
11:57 kf a 69x field would be better perhaps
11:57 if you want to link to authorieis
11:57 you can use the 653 - but I would leave that open for real uncontrolled subjects
11:57 jcamins_away I would use 650.
11:57 kf or that
11:58 jcamins_away: the problem is, he has authorities for those
11:58 jcamins_away kf: that's a good thing.
11:58 kf if you want to keep them searate
11:58 oakivil Marc21 fields re different when i look at the authorities documentation than in the bibliographic documentation
11:58 kf you will want to use another field
11:58 oakivil: that's right
11:58 jcamins_away @marc 650 2
11:58 huginn jcamins_away: Source of heading or term Code from: MARC Code Lists for Relators, Sources, Description Conventions
11:58 jcamins_away ^^ use 650$2
11:58 kf jcamins_away: perhaps you are right
11:58 yep
11:58 to specify the source
11:58 oakivil but in koha i should have the authorities fields the same as in bibliographics?
11:59 jcamins oakivil: the last two digits should be the same.
11:59 kf the question is - does koha copy $2 over using the plugin?
11:59 jcamins kf: that's a good question!
11:59 kf oakivil: different frameworks :)
11:59 the main heading from 1xx in the authority fiel will be copied to 6xx in the bibliographic file
11:59 nengard thanks kf, testing is good, but i do want to get email working so I'll wait for a few more people to wake up over here and ask again :)
12:00 kf nengard: :) I understand you, that's why I made one of my coworkers sit down with me last week
12:00 so happy it works now
12:00 oakivil yes the import script does the matching
12:00 jcamins Hrm. I can't find the code for the plugin.
12:00 kf hm not the matching
12:00 actually
12:00 wahanui actually is relevant to perl, that's a definite thing going for it, too.
12:00 kf forget actually
12:00 wahanui kf: I forgot actually
12:00 kf the import script puts the authorities into a table in your database
12:00 totally separate from bibliographic records
12:01 oakivil so what if I just added a clause to the import script to put these field 653's to the custom Authorities framework
12:01 kf and you can link them together
12:01 oakivil and forget about any marc hassle
12:01 what is the most proper field etc. I am just lookign  for a quick hack anyway :D demo is on friday
12:01 kf that should work I think
12:01 i think I would use a 69x
12:01 but basically it should work like you want it to work
12:01 you only have to know it willo not establish the links
12:01 between your records
12:02 oakivil yeah
12:02 kf that it will only do if the pk of your auth-header table and $9 in the records match
12:02 and the script will not do that
12:02 you should ask jared about linking authorities to bibs...
12:02 oakivil I need to dig into the xml parsing module anyway because the xml variant uses different names for authorities frameworks
12:02 kf but he might explode or something
12:02 jcamins It's not really possible, sorry.
12:02 kf no
12:03 but if you give it the right data to begin with, it works
12:03 jcamins By all means, try running link_authority_records_to_bibs.pl (or whatever the script is), but don't expect it to work terribly well.
12:03 oakivil hmm
12:03 kf oakivil: one working way is
12:03 oakivil: have ids for your authorities in 001 in authority, and the matching number in 6xx $9
12:04 then it will establish the link
12:04 without running any scripts
12:04 because all information is there
12:04 that it needs
12:04 if you can't provide those fields, there is a script, but as jcamins says there are some problems wtih it
12:05 oakivil you mean in the biblios 6xx $9?
12:05 kf yep
12:05 if that matches the 001 and auth_header pk thing it will link
12:05 jcamins kf's plan is good. :)
12:07 oakivil but if i just add these authorities, then modify by hand the Books marc framework to use my custom authority list for field 653$a.
12:07 Then I modify existing biblios by adding 653-fields to them.
12:07 do i still need to define the authorities 001 field?
12:08 kf if you do it all by hand it will work too
12:08 oakivil great
12:08 kf the auth plugin ill take care
12:08 the other things we talked about are migration problems mostly
12:08 cataloging from scratch should be ok
12:08 oakivil but now I also know how to import authorities together with the biblios
12:09 and how to define the linking. ATM the authorities are embedded to the marcdata
12:09 jcamins oakivil: if you just add the text in the 653, your authorities won't actually be linked.
12:09 kf no
12:09 you have to go into marc bibiographic frameworks
12:10 and link it to your auth framework, the $a field I think
12:10 hope that works without more work
12:10 oakivil thats my plan
12:10 well thanks a lot guys again
12:10 kf :)
12:10 oakivil or galls
12:10 you never know...

13:14 jcamins I mean, the language, not the feature.
13:15 oleonard Makes sense, but if you try to add too many items to a cart things will go wrong. Cookie size limit I think.
13:15 * oleonard should file a bug for that
13:15 jcamins Okay, I didn't *really* care about the cart anyway. Just lists.
13:15 :)
13:15 Good thing, I guess.
13:16 oleonard You'll have to figure out how to limit the option to just the lists then, since the controls are linked
13:16 jcamins Yeah.
13:16 How many items can you have in the cart?
13:17 I'm thinking if it's too many, have the OPAC alert the user.
13:17 oleonard I'll have to test again... it probably depends on the length of the biblionumbers rather than the number of items
13:17 ...if it really is a cookie size limit.
13:18 jcamins 4000 characters.
13:18 Probably is.
13:18 oleonard jcamins: In fact I discovered the bug when I was doing a task which could have used your suggested feature!
13:18 I wanted to add all the results of my search to a list :)
13:19 I was doing it via the cart because adding to the cart is faster
13:19 jcamins Oh, eep!

13:33 oleonard jcamins: We use a jquery plugin for cookie handling in some places. In some (older) places we do it manually
13:33 jcamins If you report the cart length limit bug, I'll fix it.
13:34 oleonard Oh yeah, what do you have in mind?
13:34 jcamins "You have tried to add too many items to your cart."
13:34 So, I guess it's not quite fixing it, more preventing it completely breaking your session.
13:35 oleonard It's the best we can do since it's a browser limitation

15:04 oakivil Hello #Koha again! I was able to import Marc21XML-Authorities to a custom Authorities type INDEX_TERM on field 653. Trouble is that I cannot find my authorities from the authorities module.
15:04 Zebra is running and I can see it trying to look with the keywords I type to Authorities module. Zebra is also indexed after some fuss which required me to delete the locks in koha-dev/var/zebra -folder.
15:04 Do i need to modify Zebra indexing rules to index field 653?
15:04 oleonard sekjal: $("#furtherm").attr("class","").attr("style","");
15:04 jcamins oakivil: you can't import MARCXML authorities. Only in binary MARC format, as far as I know.
15:05 kf can someone help me with regex?
15:05 I want to remove ,[] from a string
15:05 in perl
15:05 sekjal thanks, oleonard!
15:06 oakivil well the script said 29000 authorities imported just fine, and i can see them in the database
15:06 koha.auth_header -table
15:07 jcamins oakivil: oh, interesting. Then I have no idea what's wrong.
15:07 oakivil jcamins: It will be a lot of trouble to convert XML to binary
15:07 alex_a kf: s/(\[|\])//g;
15:08 $your_string =~ s/(\[|\])//g;
15:09 jcamins oakivil: well, if it imported successfully, clearly I was mistaken.
15:09 kf great, thx!
15:10 oakivil jcamins: I have no idea whether or not the Zebra indexed properly
15:10 no errors thrown
15:11 kf alex_a++
15:11 works :)

15:23 jcamins Oh, oops, missed the end of line bit.
15:24 oakivil kf: zebra indexed with -a.
15:25 what is a main heading? This is the format of the imported data:
15:25 <record format="FINMARC" type="Bibliographic">
15:25 <leader>     nz  a22     o  4500</leader>
15:25 <datafield tag="653" ind1="" ind2="">

15:25 Sorry for the pastebin.
15:26 format is wrong
15:32 oleonard jcamins: If I output the contents of the array created by valCookie.split("/") it outputs "undefined" for items above index 1021
15:32 kf oakivil: hm should be in 100 in your authority
15:32 not 6xx
15:32 oleonard ...but I don't know what it means.
15:32 kf ah, that's the bibliographic - ignoreme
15:32 oakivil damn no its authority
15:32 jcamins oleonard: oh, tht's weird.
15:32 oakivil damn i didnt change those types or formats
15:32 jcamins oleonard: I ran into problems long before that, too.
15:33 kf alex_a: it doesn't like that much
15:33 jcamins I guess you have short-ish biblionumbers?
15:33 oleonard The list I'm using starts at 1
15:33 oakivil kf: bot in the database it made no difference
15:33 kf alex_a++ now it works :)
15:34 thx a lot :)
15:36 oakivil kf: authority field 100 is imported into the Personal Name Authority type
15:36 i modified the import script to put 653 to the custom INDEX_TERM Authority type using field 653
15:37 kf yeah
15:37 but that's not what it should do
15:37 1xx for authority, 6xx for bibliographic
15:37 jcamins oleonard: I have no idea what to make of the problem with split, but I guess that's the problem.
15:37 oakivil ok
15:37 but it wont fix the zebra issue or will it?
15:37 jcamins oakivil: it will help the Zebra issue.
15:37 oakivil ok
15:37 so any 1xx field will do?
15:37 kf I have to leave - will be back later as cait
15:38 jcamins However, I have no idea whether you'll have to rewrite the Zebra configuration.
15:38 oakivil: no, it *must* be the 1xx field that matches the 6xx field you're using.
15:38 oakivil I think I'll take a look in the Zebra config
15:38 jcamins So, 153.
15:38 oakivil ah ok
15:38 jcamins I'm not sure that's valid, though.
15:38 oakivil now i got it
15:38 jcamins I would definitely still strongly recommend that you consider using 650/150.
15:38 oakivil Topical Term?
15:39 kf yeah
15:39 oakivil what is that?
15:39 I can do that tho
15:39 for testing sake
15:39 kf ep
15:39 yep
15:39 in authority the main heading goes into 150 then, in your bibliographic files it will end up in 650
15:39 now I am leaving :)
15:39 bye all
15:39 oakivil ok
15:39 kf left #koha
15:39 jcamins oakivil: topical term is a general subject.
15:40 sekjal oakivil:  are you still aiming to create a new Authority Type?
15:40 jcamins oakivil: it's not that you can't do things with 653, but if you don't understand MARC (and I'm guessing you don't really understand it), you're probably better off using something that's already configured.
15:41 oakivil I am not a Marc-pro thats for sure
15:41 No idea
15:41 Actually no one in our library knows marc21 that well
15:41 jcamins Yeah, you'll probably be happier using 650.
15:41 oakivil but i dont know the FinMARC we are using either
15:41 jcamins It won't make any practical difference, other than you won't have to rewrite everything.
15:41 oakivil ok
15:42 jcamins oakivil: You're using FINMARC?
15:42 oakivil yes
15:43 jcamins I have some... not-so-good news, if the data you're using is FINMARC.
15:43 Ignore everything we said, FINMARC is quite different from MARC21.
15:43 oakivil I mean in our library we use FinMarc
15:43 * jcamins just looked it up.
15:43 jcamins You'll need to do an entire new framework, with different indexing configurations, etc.
15:43 oakivil but the Authority stuff is just made up from a RDF/XML type national vocabulary
15:44 we are converting FinMarc to Marc21
15:44 jcamins Oh, that's good.
15:44 In that case, I still recommend 650.
15:44 oakivil actually I already did that according to a national committees established conversion rules using the USEMARCON-program
15:44 yup, importing, indexing
15:44 jcamins Okay, carry on. Use 650, because it'll be less painful. :)
15:45 oakivil for sure I will take the least painfull path
15:45 but it is nice that I am finally starting to understand this Koha system
15:48 Can you tell me how can I add a new sms service provider?
15:48 I have their interface specs and it is such a simple interface, no brainer.
15:49 Is there any documentation about the sms:ing module?

15:51 thanks a million again
15:52 oleonard jcamins: Not a breakthrough, but a head-smacking step forward: We were checking valCookie.length instead of arrayRecords.length when looping over arrayRecords!
15:53 jcamins Ah.
15:53 At least that wasn't my fault. ;)
15:54 sekjal 5528 passed (wehoo!)
15:57 wizzyrea did I hear someone say there were ubuntu packages?
15:57 jcamins wizzyrea: I've been using the packages at debian.koha-community.org, but there are also "launchpad" packages.
15:57 (I've been using the Debian packages on Ubuntu)
15:57 wizzyrea oh i SEE
15:58 those work ok?
15:58 jcamins I don't know what launchpad packages are.
15:58 No problems yet. :)
15:58 wizzyrea the debian ones on ubuntu I mean
15:58 jcamins Right.
15:58 The Debian ones work fine.
15:58 wizzyrea dependencies are installed and all that jazz
15:58 jcamins Unless you're on Ubuntu 10.04.
15:58 Bit of manual work then.

15:59 jcamins Though my Puppet configuration is somewhat superior.
15:59 Yup.

19:02 I stand corrected.

19:04 chris_n hmm...
19:04 the proof of the pudding is in the crust as they say
19:04 I'm not sure alt will work in the present state of things
19:05 but I "think" that is what was intended back in days of yore when the code was first created
19:07 I think the problem may come with the template code which assumes all columns on a sheet of labels are the same dimension

19:10 cait ah, there is a vendor called lsl
19:10 chris_n gaylord labels
19:10 cait makes sense
19:11 chris_n = talking about labels :)
19:13 chris_n yup, just as I suspected
19:13 the template code will need modification to allow variations in the size of columns

19:17 rangi back
19:18 chris_n wb rangi

19:32 rangi oh?
19:32 jcamins Yeah, she just got a publication! http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/d[…]tal/29/3/yang.pdf
19:32 rangi oh thats an old one
19:32 2010
19:32 * jcamins hasn't read it yet.
19:32 jcamins Wait.
19:32 rangi at least im pretty sure it is
19:33 jcamins This does seem a bit familiar.
19:33 rangi yeah i think its the quite badly done one im afraid :(
19:33 if its the voyager compared one im thinking og
19:33 f
19:34 jcamins Oh, ouch.
19:34 Not a single Koha catalog represented.
19:35 rangi yeah exactly
19:35 In Koha’s and Evergreen’s advanced search,
19:36 however, the terms are ANDed only, a fact that is not at
19:36 all obvious to the user. In the demo OPACs examined,
19:36 there is no option to choose OR or NOT between rows,
19:36 nor is there any indication that the search is ANDed
19:36 not true for either Koha or evergreen
19:36 i remember dan scott pointed out a lot of the flaws for evergreen in a blog post
19:37 evergreen also has rss feeds
19:37 etc
19:37 jcamins Yeah... if you look at the dates of the study, it becomes clear... their data was three years old.
19:37 rangi *nod*
19:37 rhcl whois melissa hofmann

19:38 jcamins She was one of the catalogers at my undergrad institution.
19:38 rangi oh look i commented on that blog too
19:40 libsysguy @random....how hard would it be to push the url variables from a current search into the advanced search if a user navigated there?
19:40 huginn libsysguy: I suck
19:40 wizzyrea http://play.aadl.org/
19:40 libsysguy huginn replies to @random?
19:40 huginn libsysguy: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready
19:40 jcamins libsysguy: what do you mean?
19:40 cait hm
19:40 remembering the last search
19:40 I would like that
19:40 libsysguy basically pre-populate the advanced search form
19:40 jcamins You mean, populating the advanced search boxes?
19:40 libsysguy yeah like what cait said
19:41 just a random thought
19:41 jcamins It'd be easy.
19:41 libsysguy I thought it would be
19:41 jcamins libsysguy++ # for volunteering to have Koha remember searches.
19:41 cait my automatic translation program does a good job, eh? ;)
19:41 libsysguy hehe cait
19:41 well we could either stash searches in the session or in the url
19:42 either way would be easy
19:42 i've done it using catalyst but im sure it wouldn't be too much different with the Koha base
19:42 * jcamins is inclined to say that session is preferable.
19:43 libsysguy tis...that way it keeps the url clean
19:45 chris_n 10 days and counting
19:45 the topic bar needs a count-down timer to release day

20:33 trea can you use jquery to add an input field to a form? ie, adding "sort1" to opac-userupdate.pl
20:34 cait hm not sure that will work
20:35 gmcharlt trea: yeah, you can use jquery to do enough DOM manipulation to create an input field
20:36 maximep the problem is probably saving the field
20:36 cait yeah
20:36 gmcharlt but it can't, in and of itself, populate that 'sort1' field for you with existing data unless it's already being passwd back in the template
20:36 cait depends what the software does with it
20:36 gmcharlt and, yes, adding a field doesn't mean that opac-userupate.pl would automatically know what to do it with it
20:37 rangi if you figure out how to do that with js

23:15 even if you create new notices with the same name, subject and code
23:15 it this correct?
23:15 3.4.5
23:15 and 3.2.9
23:16 and how bad the situation is with the oil spill?
23:16 slef I'm checking 3.5 / master
23:17 and I think I read the boat's captain is in court

23:17 slef but sample_notices really seem to be in optional when they are almost required

23:18 Judit was it his fault or he just takes the blame?
23:18 slef depends on your point of view
23:18 Judit and for my first question, if i am right: is that a bug or a feature?
23:18 slef hrm, sample_notices is in mandatory... sort of the wrong name
23:19 sample_notices_message_attributes and sample_notices_message_transports are in optional in 3.5
23:19 when you wrote "default notices", you meant the sample_notices, right?
23:20 Judit yes, like the item due, and advanced notice, item checkout, item check-in, hold filled
23:21 slef I think if you can install koha and not install a database part that's in the mandatory collection, that seems like a bug to me.
23:21 Let me check if it looks possible
23:22 Judit i have installed a koha-3.4.5- without the sample messages with no problem
23:22 slef was it labelled something like "you really should install this"?
23:22 Judit but then could not set the default messaging preferences in patron category
23:23 you know the box was missing al together
23:23 i dont remember to be honest
23:23 slef I'll check but not until the morning.
23:23 Judit and i have created new notices - copied and pasted over the subject, name, code, from an other koha
23:24 but i still had no box in the patron category
23:24 slef It looks to me like the checkbox for sample_notices is ticked, but you can untick it if you want
23:24 Judit yes, i did:)
23:25 slef yeah, I think you're basically right: either we need a way that you can get all the functions with you unticked that; or you shouldn't be able to untick that.
23:25 I don't think the current situation makes sense, but maybe someone knows why it is this way.
23:26 do you have the URL for the page where you set the default messaging categories handy?
23:27 the bit from /cgi-bin/ onwards is fine
23:27 (I'd avoid linking your admin interface in this chat because it ends up on a public website)
23:28 Judit koha/admin/categorie.pl?op=add_form&categorycode=L
23:28 slef liw: yeah, we've the usual fun with other events that can outbid us. We'll nail it down and be very very noisy as soon as we can.
23:29 magnus_away: thanks for saying my name ;-)
23:30 Judit: ok, I'm looking that up... excuse my mumbling for a moment
23:30 C4::Form::MessagingPreferences::set_form_values({ categorycode => $categorycode } , $template);
23:30 C4::Members::Messaging::GetMessagingOptions
23:31 oooh yuck :)
23:32 Judit does that mean good or bad?
23:32 :)
23:32 slef borrower_message_transport_preferen​ces.borrower_message_preference_id = borrower_message_preferences.b​orrower_message_preference_id / message_attributes.message_attribute_id = borrower_message_preferences.message_attribute_id / message_transports.message_attribute_id = message_attributes.message_attribute_id AND    message_transports.message_transport_type = borrower_message_transport_pref​erences.message_transport_type WHERE
23:32 message_attributes.message_name = ?
23:32 it means I've something to think about :)
23:32 Judit ehm
23:34 slef ok, that's irrelevant actually
23:34 Judit :D
23:34 slef or is it
23:34 ok, I'm confused :)
23:34 Judit so i am not the only one- good!
23:34 slef I don't actually understand how this bit works at all.
23:35 This could be because a) it doesn't in the version I'm looking at OR b) it's 00:35 and I've just done a 16h day :)
23:35 Like I don't mean why it doesn't work in your case... I mean why it ever works.
23:36 there's this bit:
23:36 # walk through the options and update them with these borrower_preferences
23:36 my $messaging_options = C4::Members::Messaging::GetMessagingOptions();
23:36 PREF: foreach my $option ( @$messaging_options ) {
23:36
23:36 arrrrrrrrrrgh
23:36 I was looking at GetMessagingPreferences
23:36 that says GetMessagingOptions
23:37 bloody stupid naming
23:37 Judit :)
23:37 maybe it is the 61h day, you know
23:37 16!!
23:37 not 61
23:37 slef it's not just me, is it? those names are a bit close
23:37 mmm 61h days... I need some of those
23:38 I've often asked for 36h days but hey, where's my ambition
23:38 ok, so what I actually need to ponder is message_attributes.message_attribute_id = message_transports.message_attribute_id
23:39 ah... did you load sample_notices_message_attributes?
23:39 Judit it was 6am- yesterday when i did it, i dont remember
23:40 sorry
23:40 slef it looks like you need to define some message_attributes to get the box to appear on the page you were looking at
23:40 and I've just broke my terminal :)
23:40 aha, got it back
23:41 Judit so it depends on the messgae attributes not on the sample notices?
23:41 slef yeah... I'm trying to look up where you define them now
23:43 I probably should just log into Koha. Maybe that'd be quicker
23:50 I'm a bit puzzled. At least in 3.2.9, it looks like there's no interface to it except using a mysql client... now checking 3.5
23:52 can't find it in 3.5... this is strange. I think it would be worth asking the koha@lists.katipo.co.nz how one edits the message_attributes, if it's not in the manual. Would you mind?
23:52 Judit THANKS FOR LOOKING INTO THIS
23:52 OH
23:53 sorry
23:53 slef hi caps lock :)
23:53 Judit :)
23:53 slef no worries... I'm surprised no-one else is talking here
23:53 I'm probably getting this horribly wrong :)
23:53 Judit scary question
23:54 slef I didn't find it in http://manual.koha-community.org/3.4/en/
23:55 I'd just like to mutter "bah, this code says LibLime all over it". I think I've earned that ;)
