01:30 BobB joined #koha
01:32 ago43 joined #koha
02:03 mtj random Q, anyone know where a koha or kohacon12 vector file is?
02:03 mtompset joined #koha
02:03 mtj mle or slef?
02:03 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
02:03 Greetings, mtj
02:04 libsysguy sup mtompset
02:04 mtompset Greetings, libsysguy.
02:04 I noticed your post about the Catalyst framework.
02:04 mtj sup libz mtompz
02:04 libsysguy heh
02:04 mtj yeah, me too :)
02:04 libsysguy uh oh
02:04 mtompset Have you revised the authentication module already? :)
02:05 libsysguy am I about to get pounced
02:05 mtompset No, no pouncing.
02:05 libsysguy actually I was just looking at it
02:05 mtj heh, nah... :p
02:05 i *was* thinking hmm, why not dancer or mojo?
02:05 libsysguy ugh mtj you and druthb with dancer
02:06 mtompset I was thinking ... why not pure perl, because the hard way is more fun. :P
02:06 Oak joined #koha
02:06 Oak Ahoy me hearties
02:06 libsysguy dancer is lighter but it doesn't have quite the backing that catalyst does
02:06 mtompset: i like the way you think :p
02:06 ello Oak
02:06 Oak :)
02:07 mtompset Thanks, libsysguy
02:07 mtj libsysguy: yeah, i thought that was the most likely reason
02:08 libsysguy do you prefer mojo or dancer over catalyst??
02:08 mtompset Actually, a couple late replies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iz8yg9MYf8Q (ballerina girl due to 'dancer')
02:08 mtj i dont have enuff experience with catalyst to say disagree
02:08 libsysguy oops - one ?
02:08 I used it at a previous job
02:08 but that was about 3 years ago
02:08 we all know how much software can change in 3 years :p
02:09 mtompset http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tauYnVE6ykU (because of the way you guys greeted me and each other) :)
02:09 mtj ive only used dancer so-far (for a toy-app)  , but had a very pleasant experience
02:09 -> soba.kohaaloha.com
02:10 libsysguy druthb seems to like it as well
02:10 dang it mtj now I want a beer
02:10 mtompset By the way, does koha have any robots.txt to prevent indexing by web-spiders
02:10 * mtompset grins.
02:11 mtompset Sorry for the slow reply, but greetings Oak
02:11 Oak Hello mtompset :) good to see you!
02:11 mtompset And you too, Oak
02:12 libsysguy ack forgot to export cpan to always say yes
02:12 why is it so needy all the time
02:12 mtj libsysguy:  mojo looked clever and snazzy, but too much learning curve for what i wanted....
02:12 libsysguy there is lots of stuff out there
02:12 mtj dancer looked 'just right' for what i wanted
02:12 libsysguy this is just kind of my idea of getting the ball rolling
02:13 im a little afraid of why I haven't gotten any replies to the devel list
02:13 * libsysguy is a paranoid kind of guy
02:15 mtompset Aren't all developers? ;)
02:15 libsysguy heh true story
02:16 * mtompset laughs, "I just looked at the site. No wonder libsysguy wants a beer. soba-winter-ale-festival combined with the budweiser 'wuzzap' = beer craving."
02:17 libsysguy see…mtj is a cruel person
02:18 mtj mwahahahahaaa... beer
02:18 mtompset I found it funny that it is on a kohaaloha domain... almost suggests that koha goes with beer. ;)
02:19 libsysguy well koha development does
02:19 mtompset http://xkcd.com/323/ -- like this, libsysguy
02:20 * libsysguy crosses fingers for balmers peak comic
02:20 libsysguy and it is
02:20 mtompset It is. :)
02:20 libsysguy mtompset++
02:20 my favorite comic
02:21 mtj mtompset: -> http://git.koha-community.org/[…]b;f=README.robots
02:21 mtompset mtj++
02:21 thanks.
02:41 * mtj sips a beer...
02:42 libsysguy i hate it when you find a package in debian only to eventually see its in sid

02:54 mtompset joined #koha
02:58 mtompset Ah, okay. italicized means super idle. I'm still figuring out ChatZilla.
03:26 libsysguy libsysguy?
03:26 wahanui you are Koha's hottest developer or partying with swedes on his deck
03:26 libsysguy ohh wahanui got an update?
03:30 brylie joined #koha
03:52 mtompset libsysguy?
03:52 wahanui libsysguy is Koha's hottest developer or partying with swedes on his deck
03:52 mtompset Sweet... it does the difference between 'you' and 'libsysguy'.
04:24 chris_n` joined #koha
04:27 mtompset Hmmm... Is there a way to get a URL removed from historical #koha logs?
04:27 I think Google picked up the URL and now is trying to index our site, which is the staff client.
04:28 http://irc.koha-community.org/[…]12-05-31#i_982072
04:28 I added a robots.txt, but I'd like to not have the staff client show up in Google at all.
04:29 rangi it shouldl be failing because of no password but yes ill remove it for you
04:31 goneski
04:33 mtompset thank you.
04:33 it is failing, but I don't like error logs building up. :)
04:33 rangi fair enough
04:34 mtompset rangi++
04:34 If you didn't scroll back in the IRC logs, I got my perl object working. I was so tired, I missed several typos. :)
04:35 libsysguy OOP can kill am man mtompset
04:35 mtompset Nice pure perl, no extra classes. :)
04:35 libsysguy well…object oriented perl not paradigm
04:35 rangi :)
04:35 i still like class::accessor
04:36 libsysguy i wrote a very small indexing engine once in object oriented perl
04:36 rangi as a low overhead object class
04:36 libsysguy mistake
04:36 mtompset It does look nice.
04:36 rangi and its perl core
04:36 libsysguy hmm
04:36 rangi so no need to install anything
04:36 libsysguy well that is fancy
04:36 rangi http://search.cpan.org/~kasei/[…]Class/Accessor.pm
04:37 libsysguy I was just working on catalyst and apparently catalystx doesn't work on debian
04:37 I can't even get it to compile from cpan
04:37 so I have to write logins the old way :-/
04:37 rangi this is the bit i like the best
04:37 __PACKAGE__->follow_best_practice
04:37 * mtompset grins.
04:37 libsysguy 0.0
04:37 that is awesome
04:37 mtompset Yes, following best practice is cool.
04:37 rangi makes all your setters and getters for you
04:38 * mtompset nods, "Very handy"
04:38 rangi and its Fast
04:38 http://search.cpan.org/~kasei/[…]sor.pm#EFFICIENCY
04:38 * libsysguy needs that for rest
04:39 rangi but now, its beer oclock
04:39 libsysguy and that means it bed time for me
04:39 ill see *some of you* tomorrow

07:11 eythian hello
07:12 julian_m mtompset, wahanui is a big mistery for me :)
07:13 mtompset wahanui?
07:13 wahanui yes, mtompset?

07:23 wahanui That's Ms. Cait to you! or in a very good mood today :) or a librarian, you will get wahanui's information or a hero or signing off on wahanui's patch :)
07:23 cait lol
07:23 yes?
07:23 mtompset I wanted to see what would be said, sorry. Greetings to you. :)
07:24 francharb?
07:24 wahanui francharb falls asleep easily at sea.  Don't believe me?  Just ask Brooke.
07:24 cait greetings to you too

08:16 I was just noticing that download.koha-community.org points to 3.6.5 as the current maintenance release, but 3.6.6 is out. I hope this gets fixed when 3.6.7 comes out. :)
08:17 * Brooke scratches her head to think of who maintains that...
08:17 Brooke perhaps @later wizzyrea to change that?
08:18 I know that she _can_
08:18 but I'm not sure if she's meant to

08:48 eythian BugZilla, yeah
09:18 My sin for the day: perl -e '$conf = do { local $/ = <> } ; ($clientpart) = $conf =~ m/\[client\]\n(.*?)(?:\n\[|$)/s ; @hostline = grep { /^host\W/ } split("\n", $clientpart) ; ($hostname) = $hostline[0] =~ m/^.*?=\s*(.*)$/ ; print $hostname."\n" ;' /tmp/koha-common.cnf

10:13 techno hi all
10:26 gaetan_B with the removal of items information from the marc data, items are gone from MARCdetail.pl (in the staff client) but still show up in opac-MARCdetail.pl (which is more convenient) is it a bug ? or is it intended ?
10:27 mtompset That is some seriously ugly and beautiful code, eythian.
10:28 eythian mtompset: turns out that, while it works, I don't want to be doing that after all.
10:28 mtompset Are you a regular expression junkie?
10:29 eythian I know how to use them, but they are the best way of processing text, as that's what they're for.
10:30 mtompset but why not just look at the file? Or is this an automated process?
10:30 eythian yes
10:31 this was going to go in a script where I needed that value
10:31 mtompset The worst I did today was:
10:31 cat $TMPFILE2 | perl -e '@data=<STDIN>; foreach (@data) { s/\:\:/\-/g; s/ //g; chomp $_; print "$_\-perl\n"; }' > $TMPFILE1
10:32 eythian that won't work.
10:32 mtompset why not?
10:32 Seems to run just fine.
10:33 Is there a case it will break?
10:33 eythian a) you're missing the lib prefix, b) it's not a given that a package will be of the form libmodule-name-perl
10:33 c) case issues
10:33 mtompset cat $TMPFILE1 | tr [:upper:] [:lower:] > $TMPFILE2
10:34 eythian d) have a look in debian/list-deps for how to do it using apt-file
10:34 e) useless use of 'cat' ;)
10:34 mtompset I don't like long lines. :P
10:35 eythian it's shorter without cat
10:35 tr ... < $TMPFILE1 > $TMPFILE2
10:35 arguably easier to read however.
10:35 mtompset DOH!
10:36 I could have <'d.
10:36 My brain must be half awake.
10:36 eythian but most importantly is that change won't work for all modules
10:36 s/change/method/
10:37 mtompset if there is no ::, then $_ stays the same, does it not?
10:37 eythian yes
10:37 mtompset then there's no problem.
10:37 eythian but, then you end up with something that isn't a package name
10:38 mtompset yes, but that's where the aptitude search -F "%p" comes in.
10:38 because if there is only one match, I know the lib name. :)
10:38 if there is more than one match, I suspect it is the shortest one.
10:38 eythian you're reinventing the wheel
10:39 (and, I think, badly)
10:39 mtompset apt-file...
10:39 eythian debian/list-deps has a method that works well and is always correct
10:39 mtompset Yes, but that isn't installed by default.
10:39 And I'm using Ubuntu. :P
10:39 eythian if you're in a position to create lists of packages, you're in a position to install that
10:39 it can be installed on Ubuntu
10:40 mtompset true enough...
10:40 eythian++
10:40 I'll see about apt-file.
10:42 Still has the problem of multiple matches.
10:42 eythian no
10:42 mtompset YES.
10:42 eythian because you work out the full name of the .pm and look for that
10:42 mtompset apt-file find YAML::Syck
10:42 eythian oh
10:42 I forgot about that :)
10:42 liv joined #koha
10:43 eythian how you handle that depends on what you want to do. In the case of a control file, we put them both in with a ' | '
10:43 mtompset However, it would seem to me that the shorter one is probably the correct one.
10:45 eythian apt-file -l -x search '^/usr/((lib|share)/perl5|​(lib|share)/perl/[0-9.]+)/YAML/Syck.pm$'
10:45 ^-- or do it properly :)
10:46 if that gives you duplicates, either is correct.
10:46 mtompset But then I would have to transform what I do know "YAML::Syck" into that monstrousity. :P
10:47 eythian it's already been done, it's in debian/list-deps
10:47 mtompset and you forgot about local.
10:47 eythian no I didn't
10:47 apt doesn't put things into local
10:47 mtompset true.
10:47 Okay... list-deps?
10:47 eythian yes
10:48 mtompset no such beast for Ubunut? hmmmm....\
10:48 eythian it's in the debian directory in koha
10:49 mtompset I'm trying to be a purist. :P
10:49 no mixy. :P
10:49 eythian but it'll give you impure results
10:49 which is worse
10:49 mtompset It hasn't on what matched.
10:49 And what it did find.
10:51 But I do think I'll have to create a beast to get it completely right. :)
10:51 This is for FUN, so :P

12:56 oleonard Wow, trying to QA a bug with two sequential updatedatabase patches is really annoying.
12:58 drojf1 ok good to know, i won't have another syspref in my followup for bug 8377 then :D

13:00 oleonard drojf1: Cool enhancement by the way. I wonder how common it is to have media files in the 856?
13:02 drojf1 oleonard: i don't know. since i work in an audio-visual library i hope we will actually use it one day. but i did it mostly to learn and for fun
13:04 asaurat joined #koha
13:09 drojf1 why do i get 'Can't locate object method "field" via package "C4::Templates" at /home/pi/koha/Koha/HTML5Media.pm line 74.' when i am pretty sure that field is supposed to come from MARC::Field and not C4::Templates ?

13:53 mtompset Greetings.
13:53 drojf, are you still here?
13:54 That error sounds like the fun I was having when I was playing around with Perl OO.
13:54 Library paths are a pain. :)
13:55 check your PERL5LIB?
13:55 Did you copy the C4 directory elsewhere and it expect it to work?
14:00 sekjal joined #koha
14:09 oleonard Hi sekjal
14:09 sekjal hi, oleonard
14:21 drojf mtompset: no, just added a module (HTML5Media.pm) in a random folder (i used Koha, how is defined where to put it? doesn't work in c4 either) and tried to use it. i circumvented the problem for now, passing the field info to the module in the subroutine call instead of getting the field info directly in the subroutine. but now i got "Can't locate object method "param" via package "Koha::HTML5Media" at /home/pi/koha/Koha/HTML5Media.pm line 245." when i t
14:22 mtompset check your PERL5LIB.
14:22 <path1>:<path2>:...:<path_n>
14:22 eythian_ drojf: you'll have to see what hte line that's causing the error is
14:23 and what is containing in the variable that is trying to have param accessed on it
14:24 mtompset I had typos in my objects. :)
14:24 are you sure you didn't type params in one place, and param in another?
14:24 drojf mtompset: i copied that directly from a subroutine inside of opac-detail.pl that works
14:24 it just does not work in the extra module
14:25 mtompset Yes, and what dependencies does it have?
14:25 eythian presumably the object you're trying to access is a different type in the new place
14:25 or it's being called wrong
14:25 i.e. with a -> rather than a :: perhaps
14:26 drojf hm. the line is
14:26 $template->param(
14:26 like it was in the other file
14:27 eythian so in the new place, what does $template get assigned?
14:27 mtompset and you have the appropriate use?
14:27 eythian's suggestions are better. :)
14:30 drojf in opac-detail.pl i do
14:30 $template = Koha::HTML5Media->gethtml5media($template,$r​ecord,@HTML5Media_sets,@HTML5Media_fields);
14:30 and in Koha/HTML5Media.pm i do
14:30 my $template = shift;
14:30 my $record = shift;
14:30 my @HTML5Media_sets = shift;
14:30 my @HTML5Media_fields = shift;
14:30 [ a lot of ]
14:30 $template::param(
14:30 HTML5MediaEnabled  => 1,
14:30 HTML5MediaSets     => \@HTML5Media_sets,
14:30 HTML5MediaParent   => $HTML5MediaParent,
14:30 HTML5MediaWidth    => $HTML5MediaWidth);
14:30 return $template;
14:30 *flood*
14:31 don't know if that came though, should have used paste
14:31 eythian right, so my $template = shift; is shift
14:31 err
14:31 is different
14:31 that's possibly the key bit
14:36 drojf what do you mean by "is different"?
14:36 eythian <drojf> in opac-detail.pl i do
14:36 <drojf>     $template = Koha::HTML5Media->gethtml5media($template,$r​ecord,@HTML5Media_sets,@HTML5Media_fields);
14:36 <drojf> and in Koha/HTML5Media.pm i do
14:36 <drojf>     my $template = shift;
14:36 template is getting a value in a different way
14:37 so possibly it's a different object.
14:38 drojf ok. but it works exactly like this if the subroutine is directly in opac-detail.pl
14:38 eythian but they may be getting different values in $template
14:38 (almost certainly are, otherwise you wouldn't have that error)

15:18 drojf jcamins++ # error gone, thanks
15:18 asaurat joined #koha
15:18 jcamins drojf: I've done that a lot.
15:19 drojf :)
15:19 jcamins paul_p__: do you have a moment to share an opinion?
15:19 paul_p__ jcamins sure
15:20 jcamins paul_p: I've been thinking about where to put for example GetAuthorityType in Koha::
15:20 asaurat left #koha
15:21 paul_p Koha::BusinessLogic::Authority.pm ? (s/BusinessLogic/Service/ if I move to the last koha-devel proposition)
15:22 jcamins I have an object-oriented Koha::Authority module for the View layer, but $authority->authority_type would get the authority type for that particular authority, rather than (as is needed) a lookup based on authtypecode.
15:22 So I've been stumped on this for a while.
15:22 Then it occurred to me... would it be better to just use have Koha::Authority::GetAuthorityTypeFromAuthTypeCode?
15:23 s/use //
15:23 Eventually that should go away because all the authority view code should be centralized in object-oriented Koha::Authority, but we can't rewrite all of C4 just like that.
15:24 paul_p (I think i'm against Koha::Authority as is. Koha::View::Authority sounds better to me)
15:24 jcamins It's fine to change the name.
15:24 I don't care what the module is called.
15:24 paul_p jcamins what would do GetAuthorityTypeFromAuthTypeCode ?
15:24 julian_m joined #koha
15:25 jcamins It would replace the current GetAuthorityType.
15:25 (or maybe GetAuthType... I'm not at my computer right now)
15:25 paul_p if it's a replace, it should not be called "Get" ?
15:25 * paul_p not sure to understand well the question...
15:25 jcamins The silly routine that we shouldn't need but use all over.
15:26 I am asking where to put a shim.
15:26 You are right, the right way to do it would be to have Koha::[View::]Authority->authtype.
15:26 But we use GetAuthType or GetAuthorityType in places we shouldn't in C4.
15:27 So we need to have an alternative to GetAuthType/GetAuthorityType (whichever it's called), or we'll have duplicate code in C4:: and Koha::
15:27 Basically all the routine does is look up something in the database.
15:27 paul_p jcamins = we have, currently: C4/AuthoritiesMarc.pm:sub GetAuthTypeCode {
15:27 C4/AuthoritiesMarc.pm:sub GetAuthType {
15:28 jcamins One of those is a simple SQL lookup.
15:28 I think GetAuthType.
15:28 paul_p jcamins GetAuthTypeCode does =   my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select authtypecode from auth_header where authid=?");
15:28 jcamins Yeah, GetAuthType is the problematic one.
15:28 GetAuthTypeCode is easy to replace. It goes in Koha::Data::Authority.
15:28 paul_p GetAuthType does select * from auth_types where authtypecode=?"
15:29 this one should go to Koha::Data::AuthType (if we consider removing the _ and UCasing the names)
15:29 (and singular, the default automatic behaviour of DBIx::Class)
15:30 jcamins paul_p: but we can't move anything to Koha::Data until we have the entire model, right?
15:31 paul_p jcamins = I think we can move so basic & trivial subs, without using DBIx::Class,
15:31 jcamins Okay, so it sounds like you're saying you don't need for a shim, and the code might as well go where it belongs right away.
15:32 Thanks.
15:32 tcohen Data::Paginator  and Data::Pagination are the same thing?
15:32 jcamins tcohen: nope.
15:32 paul_p jcamins = I'm not sure I know what "shim" means ;-)
15:32 (chimère in french ?)
15:33 jcamins = ggl translate says "cale", which doesn't help me at all :D
15:33 jcamins paul_p: a "shim" is a piece of code you put in so that the program will work without needing a complete rewrite.
15:33 tcohen jcamins: is there a pre-defined policy on what packages to add to debian.k-c.org ?
15:33 paul_p OK, then I understand the french word now !
15:34 tcohen i mean, we add a perl dependancy, not packaged for debian, will we package it?
15:34 jcamins tcohen: all the ones required by Koha that will compile.
15:34 tcohen: if we can, yes.
15:34 paul_p jcamins = we have 2 options here = mine is a kind of shim, yours is another one isn't it ?
15:34 jcamins paul_p: yeah, but yours is a lot less shim-y.
15:35 :D
15:35 tcohen i'm planning to add instructions for adding debian.k-c to sources.list in the .tar.gz install instructions
15:35 jcamins Yea!
15:35 * paul_p finally understand why bug 7420 does not work for him, it's because of bug 8251 :\\

It takes $template and $record and returns $template with template parameters based on field 856. this enhancement is for opac, but it should be possible to use the module for the staff client too. my question is: where is the module supposed to go? i have it in Koha/HTML5Media.pm now, is that ok or should it be somewhere else, eg.

16:26 mtompset So out of curiousity, will 3.6.7 be out early next week?
16:26 jcamins mtompset: yes, if all goes well.
16:27 (no reason to expect it won't, I won't push anything that makes problems with the release process, and I haven't found any problems with the proposed 3.6.7)
16:28 That second "won't" is a general rule.
16:28 mtompset have the dependencies changed between 3.6.6 and 3.6.7?
16:28 (more perl libraries)
16:28 jcamins Hm.
16:29 drojf jcamins: what would be a reason not to put something in Koha::?
16:29 jcamins Don't think so.
16:29 drojf: actually, I can't think of any.
16:29 drojf heh
16:29 what is C4 anyway? what does it stand for and why is it not all Koha::?
16:30 mtompset So, the install_misc/ubuntu.packages should be the same, unless it has been patched with missing items? ;)
16:30 wizzyrea oh I know this
16:30 jcamins No idea what it stands for, but it exists because that used to be the namespace.
16:30 We'd keep it except it's such a mess it's hopeless.

16:58 mtompset I'm assuming the only reason the ubuntu.packages needs updating is because the file PerlDependencies is what is frequently updated, and not ubuntu.packages.
16:58 jcamins Right.
16:59 mtompset My script that I just wrote does a mass grep. :)
16:59 based on ./koha_perl_dep
16:59 and for 3.6.6 there were only 3 libraries not found under 10.04

17:01 sekjal melia:  I'll try to take a look in the next hour or so
17:01 jcamins There were only three not found under 10.04?
17:01 mtompset Yep.
17:01 jcamins When I installed 3.6.1 on 10.04, there were a half dozen that had to be installed manually.
17:02 mtompset Well, then PerlDependencies has changed. :)
17:02 melia oh yay! thank you sekjal!!

17:04 mtompset: does your script have to be run on Ubuntu?
17:04 mtompset No. I suppose it could run under Debian, but Debian has the packages. Why would you need it? :)
17:04 jcamins To generate ubuntu.packages at release time.
17:05 I want to run it on Debian *for* Ubuntu.
17:05 Morthland Should I pursue doing this through MYSQL?
17:05 jcamins Morthland: the first question?
17:05 wahanui "What are you trying to do?"  "What is the goal?" or "What problem are you experiencing?"
17:05 Morthland yes.
17:05 I imported my entire database from a backup
17:05 it changed the framework
17:05 I need to set it back
17:06 jcamins Why?
17:06 Morthland They are all set to audio-cassetes
17:06 jcamins (why do you need to set it back)
17:06 Morthland instead of books
17:06 my keyword-to marc mapping is messed up
17:06 jcamins Okay.
17:06 Did you delete the default framework?
17:07 Morthland no.
17:07 They were all books/booklets
17:07 jcamins How did you backup and restore your database?
17:08 Morthland Export bibliographics/holdings
17:08 stage records for import
17:10 jcamins Ah.
17:11 mtompset Is the default framework wrong, or something?
17:11 Morthland hmm?
17:14 jcamins mtompset: yeah, that's what I'm wondering about.
17:14 Morthland: what you describe shouldn't happen if you had the same frameworks in the old database and the new one.
17:14 And if you didn't, everything should have showed up as "default" on the new.
17:14 Unless you deleted the default framework.
17:14 What version?
17:15 Morthland 3.6 to 2.8
17:15 wahanui 12.968
17:15 jcamins Morthland: 3.8?
17:15 wahanui 3.8 is going to be great :)
17:16 jcamins Is there any reason you can't do a mysqldump and transfer the entire database?
17:16 That way you will keep all your existing frameworks.
17:17 Morthland I already have this transfered, as well as my patrons. Seems simpler just to manually edit from here.
17:17 is BIBLIO the correct table?
17:17 jcamins I don't think so.
17:17 Manually editing via the database almost always ends in disaster.
17:18 And by "almost always" I mean I cannot think of any counterexample.
17:18 tcohen mtompset: for k in $(for i in $(./koha_perl_deps.pl -m -u | grep '::' | cut -d" " -f1 | perl -pi -e 's/::/-/g' | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]') ; do echo lib$i-perl ; done); do apt-cache search $k ; done

17:18 sekjal melia:  8418 no longer applies
17:18 jcamins Or, rather, you *should* select a framework.
17:18 melia dang it
17:18 martian523 is there anyway to add shipping costs?
17:19 jcamins Revert the import, and reimport, this time making sure to set the framework the way you want.
17:19 martian523: not to my knowledge.
17:19 Morthland how do I revert import?
17:20 mtompset not quit.
17:20 Morthland is it just an option?
17:20 mtompset CGI
17:20 YAML
17:20 jcamins Morthland: if you used stage MARC import, you just go click "Revert import." If you used bulkmarcimport, the best option is probably just to delete the records.
17:21 Morthland I clicked clean.
17:21 That was a mistake
17:21 jcamins Yes.
17:22 Well...
17:22 You could try an overlay.
17:22 Morthland Right.
17:23 martian523 another question, it seems like when i was trying to add quantity to my order basket, it wouldn't allow me until i delete "read only" in the html codes

17:38 jcamins What did it say?
17:39 Morthland cannot truncate table referenced in a foreign key constraint
17:39 I might just drop all the tables and start from scratch.
17:39 jcamins Oh, I must have gotten it backwards.
17:39 No need.
17:40 Morthland what should I do/
17:40 ?
17:40 jcamins Run this command, less "everything": delete from everything biblio

17:41 Morthland the whole string, you mean "less "everything": delete from everything biblio"
17:41 jcamins No, I mean after the colon, but remove the word "everything".
17:42 Morthland delete from biblio"?
17:42 *delete from biblio?
17:42 jcamins Right.
17:42 With a semicolon at the end.

17:46 Even with rebuild_zebra running in cron.
17:47 Morthland i'm running the index-daemon
17:47 but that isn't fixing the issue
17:47 jcamins You'll have to reindex from scratch.
17:47 Morthland how do I do that?
17:47 jcamins koha-zebra-index --full
17:48 Or whatever that command is.

18:01 tcohen what is the set-selections semantics?
18:01 does it overwrite the selections? is it appended?
18:01 jcamins tcohen: I suspect it's appended, but I don't know.
18:02 tcohen i have a virgin 12.04 install
18:02 and using set-selections tries to destroy it
18:02 * mtompset grins, "Sounds like it isn't any more."
18:02 Morthland looks likek that works
18:02 allthough,
18:03 my index daemon said it indexed 3400 entries,
18:03 and we only have 1550 items.
18:03 jcamins Odd.
18:04 tcohen mtompset: what are you exactly working on?
18:04 jcamins Morthland: for future reference, the best way to transfer a database between systems is to dump the entire database, and load it on the new system.
18:04 Morthland Good to know.
18:04 I wasn't sure whether Koha would be happy with that.
18:04 jcamins Yup.
18:04 That's how upgrades work.
18:05 mtompset a bash script that uses ./koha_perl_deps.pl to see if the libraries exist or not.
18:05 Morthland I used that,
18:06 and got to where I wasn't missing any dependencies,
18:06 and the web installer still listed one.
18:06 mtompset that would be a failure to update PerlDependencies.pm
18:06 Worthy of a bug report.
18:07 But that dpesn't make sense, since the web installed probably uses the same module.
18:07 tcohen mtompset, are you planning to add a new script?
18:07 Morthland I figured it did, so I was a bit confused
18:07 mtompset It was for my own personal use. :)
18:07 Morthland I CPANed it and had no problems
18:07 tcohen for k in $(for i in $(./koha_perl_deps.pl -m -u | grep '::' | cut -d" " -f1 | perl -pi -e 's/::/-/g' | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]') ; do echo lib$i-perl ; done); do apt-cache search $k ; done
18:08 mtompset I told you.
18:08 That won't work
18:08 CGI
18:08 YAML
18:08 tcohen it misses YAM Land CGI
18:08 mtompset and whatever future mess that comes along.
18:08 DBI
18:09 GD
18:09 JSON
18:09 tcohen thinking of useful scripts, adding a switch -B (fr batch)  to koha_perl_deps.pl
18:09 would be of help
18:09 mtompset Test
18:09 POSIX
18:09 tcohen to make it output just the library names
18:09 mtompset Storable
18:09 wahanui Storable is yellow and Graphics::Magick
18:10 tcohen (the missing ones)
18:10 mtompset Template
18:10 wahanui it has been said that Template is a copy from output
18:10 mtompset ... I'll stop
18:10 That's why I am writing the script.
18:10 Would you like to see my rough draft?
18:11 tcohen i'd add a switch to koha_perl_deps
18:11 and also that useful script you're doing
18:11 i'd like to take a look at it
18:11 mtompset It's easier to bash onto it, than modify something that I haven't had time to understand.
18:11 tcohen it could serve for maintaining the docs
18:12 and the package list
18:13 mtompset Let's see.. I've never tried transferring a file via IRC in the last few decades.
18:13 jcamins If someone would like to submit a patch for ubuntu.packages for 3.6.7 (if there any missing), I will accept it.
18:14 mtompset Do you have a capable IRC client, tcohen?
18:14 tcohen yeap
18:14 jcamins You can transfer files over IRC?
18:14 * jcamins didn't know that.
18:14 tcohen jcamins, unfortunately i'm leaving in 10''
18:15 mtompset how do I do this?
18:15 tcohen but i'd like to have it ready for 3.6.7!
18:15 jcamins mtompset: git checkout origin/3.6.x
18:15 tcohen i'm finishing writing the INSTALL.ubuntu.precise file
18:15 jcamins Make any necessary changes to ubuntu.packages
18:15 git add ubuntu.packages
18:16 git commit
18:16 (add description)
18:16 git send-email -1
18:16 mtompset Maybe in 24 hours.
18:16 jcamins Send the message to patches@lists.koha-community.org
18:16 If no one has time to do it in the next day, it'll keep until 3.6.8. :)
18:18 Just thought I'd let you know that this is pretty much the only patch I'd accept for 3.6.7 at this point.
18:19 mtompset That's my script rough draft.
18:19 tcohen mtompset: email me at tomascohen gmail?
18:19 mtompset You didn't get the DCC SEND?

18:22 mtompset Thank you. You too.
18:22 no dot?
18:22 jcamins mtompset: Gmail ignores dots.
18:22 mtompset oh, okay.
18:24 While I'm sending my script, would you like a glimpse too, jcamins?
18:24 jcamins mtompset: yes please!

18:31 martian523 i'm back, sorry
18:31 have another question about "lists"
18:31 jcamins Yeah, needs to be ,phr IMO.
18:31 chris_n` joined #koha
18:31 martian523 the list i created doesn't show up after i saved it
18:31 does the lists function not work?
18:32 oleonard It should martian523. Where and how are you creating the list?
18:32 and remind me what version you're on
18:34 Thanks jcamins
18:34 chris_n` joined #koha
18:35 mtompset Well, it is 2:34AM here.
18:35 I'm going to bed.
18:36 martian523 i'm using 3.8.1
18:36 and there's a "Lists"
18:36 I clicked on that, clicked new list
18:37 created a new list, saved, and doesn't appear in lists
18:37 oleonard Staff client martian523 ?
18:45 martian523 admin
18:47 oleonard I don't have any trouble creating a new list in the staff client in master.
18:48 martian523 am i doing something wrong?
18:48 staff client in master = admin, correct?
18:48 jcamins Staff client = the interface that staff use.
18:48 martian523 access everything right?
18:49 yes
18:50 oleonard martian523: After you create a new list, are you redirected to a page where you can add a new title to the list by barcode?
18:50 martian523 nope
18:50 redirected back to add new list
18:50 to the previous page
18:51 oleonard I don't see this problem in Bywater's Koha demo which is running 3.8.0
18:51 martian523 i'm running 3.8.1
18:51 jcamins martian523: are you logged in as the kohaadmin user?
18:52 martian523 yep
18:53 Morthland Because of all my issues with importing my records, my biblio numbers start at 6121. That isn't a problem, is it?
18:53 jcamins That's probably your problem.
18:53 Morthland: nope.
18:53 Morthland I figured. Always best to check, though.
18:53 oleonard martian523: You should always create a new superlibrarian user account to use instead of kohaadmin
18:53 jcamins Morthland: agreed.
18:53 oleonard Using kohaadmin is likely to lead to random errors
18:54 martian523: There's no point in investigating this bug further until you test with a regular account
18:55 martian523 superlibrarian user account?
18:55 wow
18:55 let me ask the IT ppl
18:55 oleonard martian523: That just means a new patron in Koha with "superlibrarian" privileges
18:56 No IT ppl required
19:00 Sound doable martian523 ?
19:01 martian523 how do you set up the superlibrarian privileges?
19:01 i'm in kohaadmin at this point
19:02 oleonard Did you create a new patron?
19:02 martian523 by creating a new patron of "superlibrarian", i can do more than what i can do now?
19:03 oleonard Yes, because you can do it without random bugs related to using the kohaadmin user
19:03 jcamins martian523: you can do almost everything you can do well, and you'll be able to get help.
19:03 *now, not well
19:03 oleonard The kohaadmin user is not meant to be used except to set up the main admin user
19:04 martian523: http://manual.koha-community.o[…]html#addnewpatron

19:14 wizzyrea trying to find a place besides subjects to put all that stuf fin
19:14 hehehe
19:14 is a bit of a display nightmare
19:14 jcamins I would use 690.
19:15 You want them to be controlled headings.
19:15 wizzyrea 690 you say
19:15 jcamins That's what I'd do.
19:15 wizzyrea how does it display?
19:15 jcamins Then make Koha put the tag number in the class and, bingo, easy to format.
19:16 Except in order to have these authority controlled they'd have to be formatted not like that.
19:16 wizzyrea oh it's not about authority control
19:16 jcamins You know what, forget the 690 suggestion.
19:16 wizzyrea it's a bout making it look pretty.
19:16 jcamins I know.
19:16 wizzyrea :P
19:16 jcamins But I'd use 690 so that they'd be live links.
19:16 wizzyrea oh they don't need to be live links
19:16 jcamins (i.e. authority controlled)
19:16 wizzyrea in fact, clicking them is ERROR ERROR
19:17 jcamins Okay...
19:17 wizzyrea so i'd even rather them not be links
19:17 jcamins 505.
19:17 oleonard Hey wizzyrea, that stuff is falling from the sky again. You know, the... whatsit.

19:17 oleonard Right, but it's not ravioli
19:17 wizzyrea no, not that.
19:18 jcamins Though, just a warning, 505 is pretty gosh darn hideous.
