00:02 jcamins I think that could be used with koha-gitify to great effect.
00:02 dani left #koha
00:04 dcook jcamins++
00:06 mtompset Ah, the default is RaiseError=>0, PrintError=>1 if not specified.
00:06 Making a warning out of an error.
00:08 rangi yep
00:14 dcook Ahh, reading irc logs from after I left yesterday. What am I doing?!
00:14 Need to get a #koha feed installed in the brain perhaps...
00:14 * dcook goes back to trying to figure out why a null size would come out as "33" or "34" in the Lists...
00:15 dcook Also, thank the technology lords for Git. Makes this a million times easier to try to figure out.
00:23 Oh...a clue...
00:31 AHHHH
00:32 Of course!
00:32 Osti..
00:33 itemsloo.size doesn't get the key for size
00:33 It gets the size of the itemsloop
00:33 Which is why it's 33 in 3.8 and 34 in master..
00:33 Hmm, that's problematic
00:33 http://www.template-toolkit.or[…]html#section_size
00:42 Hmm, I guess the biblioitems table is the only one with a `size` column
00:43 I wonder where else we're actually getting the size of an array...
00:44 jcamins biblioitems has a size column?
00:44 dcook Yep
00:44 Pages too
00:45 Illus
00:48 tcohen joined #koha
00:48 dcook Hmm, my explanation wasn't quite right
00:48 itemsloo.size returns the number of keys in the itemsloo hash
00:49 Not the number of hashes in the itemsloop array
00:49 durr
00:49 hey ya tcohen
00:49 tcohen hi dcook
00:49 dcook A quick grep suggests that we usually use ".size" as a method rather than as a reference to a hash key
00:49 Except in this case
00:50 Easy enough to fix though..
00:52 drnoe joined #koha
00:56 tcohen what bug are you talking about dcook?
00:56 dcook I'm just about to file a report :)
00:56 Currently, in the Lists, if the column `size` is null in biblioitems, itemsloo.size will print out the size of the hash rather than the `size` of the List item
00:57 Interestingly, if the column isn't null, it does print out the value in `size` rather than the size of the hash...
00:57 * dcook just recalled that last fact
00:58 tcohen is it a but in tt?
00:58 or is it the desired behaviour?
00:58 dcook Well...".size" is a method in TT
00:58 We really shouldn't be using it to access the key in a hash
00:59 tcohen I didn't understand it that way
00:59 dcook The fact that it does sometimes print out the value in the hash...that's probably a bug in TT
00:59 tcohen exactly
01:00 dcook Certainly something to keep in mind and possibly report to TT developers, but...in our case...I think it makes sense just to use a different hash key
01:00 Because it "should" always be getting the size of the hash rather than getting a key from it, I think
01:00 And we definitely do NOT want the size of the hash in this case
01:01 I wonder if this is happening in opac-results for the Normal display..
01:02 drnoe joined #koha
01:02 tcohen i hope this is nt a pandora's box you're opening
01:02 dcook How do you  mean?
01:02 tcohen i mean that we notice we are doing things wrong all over the place
01:02 dcook Mmm, I see.
01:03 I hope this isn't the case as well.
01:03 tcohen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandora's_box
01:03 dcook It looks like opac-results.tt does use SEARCH_RESULT.size...but it doesn't have the same problem.
01:03 tcohen: I'm fairly familiar with Pandora's box, although I usually think of it in terms of...the person opening it to be an idiot ;)
01:04 * dcook goes to read the entry
01:05 tcohen oh, we use it in argentina (at least) to mean no one  knows what's going to come from the inside
01:05 i understand i should be more careful with metaphores
01:05 dcook No not at all
01:06 I think my usage has been incorrect
01:06 Probably too many tv shows when I was younger ;)
01:06 jcamins dcook: yep, sorry.
01:06 dcook Hmm, I guess the idea is that Pandora should've known better than to have opened it...
01:07 But...it seemed destined to happen anyway...
01:09 I wonder why the .size issue doesn't seem to be happening in opac-results...
01:10 tcohen one interesting consecquence of pandora's box metaphore is that hope seems to be evil :-D
01:10 * tcohen runs to the kitchen
01:16 dcook Hmm, Search.pm seems not to pass back a null size to opac-search.pl...
01:17 But that's probably because it's not getting size from the biblioitems
01:17 But rather from the MARC record...
01:33 drnoe joined #koha
01:40 dcook Aha!
01:40 http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6374
01:40 huginn 04Bug 6374: normal, P3, ---, adrien.saurat, CLOSED FIXED, Use "size" as names/hash keys leads to an unexpected results when using Template::Toolkit (name of a virtual method there)
01:41 dcook Definitely seeing the value of keeping whitespace changes separate from code changes...
02:19 druthb o/
02:19 rangi hi druthb
02:19 druthb hiya, rangi. :)
02:19 rangi dcook: -w
02:20 eg git blame -w filename
02:20 ignore whitespace changes
02:20 works diff too
02:20 dcook Yeah, I remember you mentioning that a while ago. I think I tried it once and it didn't work all that well..
02:20 In this case, I figure it out anyway but maybe I'll try it again
02:32 Just tried with git diff, and it didn't seem to do anything
02:32 Not sure why git blame would need a -w either, or how it would work
02:33 Wait...
02:33 Nix that very last part
02:33 Hmm, I don't think it worked though
02:33 rangi: Could -w be config specific?
02:34 rangi hmm perhaps but i dont think so
02:36 dcook Maybe my expectations of how it's supposed to work don't correspond to what actually happens
02:37 In this case: http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]=7028&action=edit I pretty much just had to ctrl+f / eyeball it
02:39 rangi had it been pushed already?
02:40 dcook Oh yeah
02:40 'bout a year and a half ago
02:40 rangi check this out
02:40 git show 74506e52deb383589b541848bbb2026aa4991f81
02:41 vs
02:41 git show -w 74506e52deb383589b541848bbb2026aa4991f81
02:43 dcook That's awesome!
02:44 I thought it didn't show any whitespace changes at all
02:44 mtompset "Note that you must have the Suppress index set up in Zebra and at least one suppressed item, or your searches will be broken."
02:44 Question: how do I know if the suppress index is set up in Zebra?
02:45 dcook I suspect by checking your Zebra config files, but perhaps there's a faster way
02:45 mtompset but what would I expect to see in my config files?
02:45 jcamins mtompset: it's always set up.
02:45 mtompset Then why did my search bust, and I changed OpacSuppression and then it works?
02:45 eythian why does that patch only have biblibre email addresses attached to it?
02:46 jcamins eythian: I wondered that too.
02:46 mtompset: because you did not have any items suppressed.
02:46 dcook Huh...good call, eythian
02:46 wizzyrea see: pushed 1.5 years ago
02:46 dcook Different rules back then?
02:46 wizzyrea no.
02:46 just more bending of them.
02:47 dcook Ahh
02:47 :(
02:47 mtompset but we do.
02:47 jcamins In that case, misconfiguration.
02:47 dcook mtompset, you're sure that you have an item with a 952$n set?
02:47 Wait..
02:48 942
02:48 That's interesting
02:49 Yeah, 942$n with a value of 1
02:49 Maybe try re-indexing?
02:50 rangi++
02:50 Thanks for the tip and the illustration of how it works :)
02:54 jcamins Wow. The Acquisitions APIs are appalling, aren't they?
02:56 drnoe joined #koha
02:58 dcook jcamins: I just want to double-check...the Zebra index for the biblionumber is "Local-Number" ?
02:58 jcamins Yes.
02:58 dcook Sweet. Thanks.
03:00 Setting up a record matching rule for bib number..
03:08 drnoe joined #koha
03:21 dcook Quick question...
03:21 If you export all your bib records (but don't export items)
03:22 Then re-import them using a record matching rule where you use the bib number (999$c)
03:22 Where you replace existing records and ignore items...
03:22 The item data should all be preserved and nothing should be changed except the marcxml, and associated other fields in the biblio and biblioitems tables?
03:33 cjh confetti
03:33 wahanui o/ '`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`
03:33 dcook O_o
03:33 Yay?
03:33 cjh its a Friday, and a good one at that.
03:33 wizzyrea get the popcorn
03:33 wahanui http://i.imgur.com/p3cHE.gif
03:34 dcook It's not too shabby at all
03:34 Although now I really want buttered and salted popcorn..
03:34 cjh heh
03:35 dcook I'm really glad that I sorted out that weird number issue in the lists
03:35 * dcook just noticed that darth_tater is now just tater
03:37 dcook Hmm, it's impossible to delete a list unless you're the owner, right?
03:43 List permissions are weird...perhaps even weirder in master than in the past..
03:45 A superlibrarian really should be able to edit and delete lists..
03:46 cjh, wizzyrea: Are you two in the office? Only 15 minutes until beer o'clock?
03:46 cjh maybe...
03:46 wahanui maybe is, like, a momentaneous error
03:46 cjh wahanui: not in ternary logic!
03:46 wahanui cjh: what?
03:46 wizzyrea :)
03:46 cjh wahanui: exactly.
03:46 wahanui cjh: i'm not following you...

03:53 cjh ohhhhh a wild kristina !
03:53 welcome :)
03:53 dcook wizzyrea: I really cannot stop thinking of popcorn...*slightlygrumpyface* :p
03:54 cjh dcook: I know this sound crazy, so dont shoot it down too quickly
03:54 dcook: but you could, just maybe, get popcorn
03:54 mind = blown
03:54 dcook :O
03:54 I...
03:54 cjh http://meremortalblog.files.wo[…]d-blown.jpg?w=412
03:55 wahanui: mind blown is <reply>http://meremortalblog.files.wo[…]d-blown.jpg?w=412
03:55 dcook Precisely!
03:55 wahanui OK, cjh.
03:55 dcook I was going to say that we don't have a microwave or a stove here
03:55 cjh here we have 'butter lovers' microwave popcorn
03:55 MMMHHHMMM
03:55 dcook But I could actually go to the cinema just for popcorn
03:55 Not even see a film
03:55 Just get the popcorn and leave
03:55 cjh heh
03:55 dcook I'm walking right by there on the way to the bus...
03:55 cjh doo eett
03:56 dcook Oh God...I forsee a horrible (yet delicious) future for myself
03:56 foresee even
03:56 drnoe joined #koha
03:56 dcook cjh: I might have to. Hehe
03:56 * cjh earns commission
03:57 cjh catalyt is secretly in teh popcorn business.
03:57 * wizzyrea idly wonders if theatre popcorn is vegan
03:58 cjh I guess it could be fake butter, and probably is
03:58 wizzyrea I *think* it's coconut oil, or palm oil
03:58 which by the way
03:58 popcorn with coconut oil rivals butter in almost every way
03:58 it's aweosme
03:58 so good I can't spell correctly
03:59 cjh nope. impossible.
03:59 dcook I'm intrigued
03:59 Also, good call wizzyrea
03:59 I don't think there's any dairy in it
04:00 Have you ever seen the stuff in a tub?
04:00 I had a friend who volunteered at a film society and he once showed me what it was like to make popcorn...
04:00 * dcook cringes
04:00 dcook Horrifying yet delicious.
04:02 eythian anyone know what Library/CallNumber/LC.pm is?
04:02 it's causing tests to fail on master
04:03 (referenced by C4::Labels)
04:05 * eythian gets to blame gmcharlt for this one :)
04:06 dcook hehe
04:06 I git blamed something the other day and found rangi responsible :o
04:06 Well, for the code that I needed to change
04:06 eythian oh, no
04:06 dcook It was possible the bug was caused by a code change elsewhere
04:06 eythian I get to blame me for not updating the dependency list
04:07 wizzyrea when you have as much code in Koha as those guys do, it'd be more suprising if it *wasn't* them
04:07 cjh dcook: impossible, rangi cant do evil.
04:07 dcook I'm with cjh on this one ;)
04:13 eythian > unknown package for Library::CallNumber::LC
04:13 cjh ooooohhhhh
04:13 eythian I think I'll wait until next week before fixing that :/
04:13 cjh mamamama
04:14 wizzyrea liblibrary-callnumber-lc-perl or somesuch?
04:15 i am sure that I installed it
04:15 dcook Alas, doesn't sound familiar to me
04:48 mtompset Have a great day (24 hour period), everyone.

12:00 ok
12:00 sorry, still trying to catch up, I confused things
12:01 tcohen i'll talk to bgkriegel
12:01 kf cool
12:01 tcohen we could pull the po's more often too
12:01 kf hope the new pootle will behave :)
12:01 and give him no trouble
12:01 tcohen did u see it?
12:01 kf i didn't work with it yet, just took a quick look around
12:01 libsysguy you know, out of all the irc channels I have started to lurk in since I started at cPanel, you guys are still by far the nicest
12:01 kf not really lots of time for play right now
12:02 aaaw
12:02 told ya you will end up missing us ;)
12:02 libsysguy :p
12:02 well I was thinking about it last night, every new person that comes in asking the same questions we have all heard a million times gets a nice answer
12:02 instead of: "HERE ARE THE DOCS, GET OUT"
12:03 kf wow
12:03 and others do that?
12:03 libsysguy well, maybe not that loudly
12:03 but that is the general message

12:04 mix of developers and librarians
12:05 and something about passive tense in nz english or so

14:50 because you can#t know which parts are to be translated
14:50 from the sql
14:50 and we have line breaks and things in there (notices especially) that pootle can#t deal with correctly

14:59 gmcharlt kf: well, one approach would be to not try to parse the SQL to extract strings, but write something that loads the English into a database, then goes through the relevant tables to create a text file in a structured format for which a pot-generator could be written
14:59 the line breaks might be a harder problem, though

17:05 cait jcamins: no idea
17:05 context?
17:07 jcamins cait: the wiki page in German on cataloging antiquarian books creates a new authority type for DRUCK_ORT and links 752 to it.
17:07 cait oh
17:08 i don't know i think he used some documentation that i don't know
17:08 i think maybe from switzerland
17:08 jcamins It's Czech.
17:08 cait i have seen the wii page but didn't get around to show it to our marc21 expert
17:08 ah
17:08 so right now i have not much idea about it - sorry :(
17:10 752 sounds a bit unusual tho
17:10 jcamins cait: 752 is a logical place to put a place of publication, but it's also a logical place to put other things.
17:11 Which is why I was curious.
17:12 cait i will give you an update when i got around to take a look :)

18:06 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
18:07 tcohen hi mtompset
18:07 mtompset I had a thought while pondering my problem.
18:07 Can you run the upgrade a database concurrently multiple times?
18:07 smeagol Hi all, I've been getting this error from my SIP server recently, and can't figure out why. My institution id has worked before..very puzzling. "Jun  6 06:09:44 mtplbywaterkoha koha_sip[444]: Successful login/auth for 'sip user' of 'mid' Jun  6 06:09:44 mtplbywaterkoha koha_sip[444]: login_core: $VAR1 = 'ILS'; Jun  6 06:09:45 mtplbywaterkoha koha_sip[444]: Sip::Configuration::Service=HA SH(0x251ce70): Loading ILS implementation 'ILS' for institution 'mid' f
18:08 jcamins mtompset: you can, if you want to mess things up.
18:09 cait smeagol: possible soeone deleted or changed your sip user?
18:10 it's a wild guess, but if you didn't change something in your xml config file as it worked before... it might be something inside koha that has changed
18:11 mtompset jcamins: I understand, but is there a nice way to prevent that scenario from being possible?
18:12 jcamins mtompset: Use packages.
18:13 mtompset How does that prevent someone from intentionally being stupid?
18:14 jcamins The packages run the update for you.
18:15 However, protecting people from intentionally doing things they already know they shouldn't (and have to go out of their way to do) is not really a high priority to my mind.
18:15 mtompset Could another staffer try to access the staff client before the upgrade is finished and trigger a secondary upgrade?
18:16 This is all, thankfully, hypothetical.
18:16 gmcharlt mtompset: have you actually run into a situation where multiple updatedatabase.pl runs took place?
18:16 ah, I see
18:16 jcamins mtompset: not unless you have trained your staffers badly.
18:17 The staffers should not be using the database login.
18:17 Period.
18:17 mtompset And that is the only log in that can do an upgrade?
18:17 jcamins There is even a message informing them of that fact when they log in with it.
18:17 Yes.
18:18 mtompset Okay... then I suppose I can release my worries of stupidness happening. :)
18:19 jcamins I figure if someone has to go out of their way to break things, as developer it ceases to be my problem.
18:20 You can damage your car by driving the the parking brake fully engaged, but for a very long time (if not still), car maker still made cars in which that was possible.

19:38 libsysguy I'll have to tell you about that meeting later
19:38 holy cow
19:38 mtompset Nothing yet, but I would like it use it, if I can keep silent warnings out of the "errors" log files. :)
19:39 jcamins mtompset: they're not silent if they're appearing in the log files.
19:39 And why are you anticipating errors?
19:40 mtompset There are always warnings and errors. Always. They are out to get us. :P
19:41 jcamins Right, but unless you have a very good reason to think that there will be a warning, you shouldn't mess with the settings.
19:41 mtompset And I won't, unless there is a reason.
19:41 jcamins Good.
19:41 mtompset But it is useful thing to know if I suddenly find my log file flooding with something that could be fixed with that kind of tweak.
19:41 * jcamins uses DEBUG, and would not take kindly to code that eliminated that functionality.
19:42 mtompset you can clause it to if not DEBUG. :P
19:48 * mtompset waits for his database to reset to some old data.
20:00 pianohacker Hmm. Hey #koha. What are your thoughts of a version of C4::Context->preference that die()s if the preference is unset, for contexts where a friendly message is impossible or doesn't make sense?
20:00 In cronjobs, for instance
20:02 jcamins I question the utility. Many preferences can be unset, and the ones that can't may not be universally required, so I think the caller needs to handle that logic.
20:03 It would be easy enough to add a hashref argument to C4::Context->preference if there are enough instances you can think of it being useful, though, of course.
20:04 paul_p joined #koha
20:04 pianohacker jcamins: True, this wouldn't be used too often. Things like OPACBaseURL were the intended target; preferences that in some usage patterns can be unset, but other times will break functionality if missing
20:05 jcamins: Also, out of curiosity, by hashref argument, did you mean something like C4::Context->preference( 'blahblahblah', required => 1 ) ?
20:05 jcamins I think probably a specific error message would be more useful than a C4::Context-level generic die.
20:06 I was thinking C4::Context->preference('blahblahblah', { 'required' => 1 }), so that we don't pass the hash on the stack.
20:07 pianohacker jcamins: True on the error message part. As a general Perl question, though, is passing a hash that small a performance issue?
20:07 jcamins Not really for one that small, but you never know when you're going to end up making it larger, so we just have a blanket hashref/arrayref policy.
20:08 pianohacker Interesting. Makes sense from a pointer perspective, but never heard that before
20:08 jcamins coding guidelines?
20:08 wahanui coding guidelines are http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Coding_Guidelines
20:09 jcamins PERL16: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]used_as_arguments
20:10 pianohacker kk
20:11 jcamins And... PBP Chapter 9 "Named Arguments."
20:14 * mtompset wakes up on mention of "OPACBaseURL".
20:15 pianohacker I normally wake up on mention of coffee, but to each their own
20:15 mtompset No, it's just that OPACBaseURL is very much not required unless you are planning to do something like... oh, the patch that I'm working on. :P
20:16 pianohacker mtompset: and, actually, the patch that I'm working on :)
20:17 mtompset what are you working on?
20:18 pianohacker external target search in the OPAC using pazpar2
20:18 mtompset Ah.
20:19 pianohacker you still battling saml?
20:20 * jcamins has been avoiding the need for OPACBaseURL with complex web server contortions.
20:21 pianohacker jcamins: ... what horrible things have you done to your httpd.conf?
20:22 jcamins pianohacker: actually, not that much. I use a single Plack application for both intranet and OPAC and rewrite the OPAC URLs in nginx, which means that the OPAC is accessible on /cgi-bin/koha/opac/ from the staff client.
20:23 pianohacker ...
20:23 umm.
20:23 I guess that's possible
20:23 jcamins Yeah, and that way I don't have to figure out how to do XSS.
20:23 pianohacker <shiver>
20:24 How significant are the speed gains from Plack, and do they outweigh the occasional breakage?
20:24 jcamins The speed gains are at least a factor of ten.
20:24 At least on lower-end hardware. I'm not sure I'll see such a big difference in production.
20:24 The OPAC has very little breakage, so I'm thinking of putting Plack on the OPAC in production this summer.
20:25 pianohacker wow. Loading up a script that runs a couple SQL calls and does no template rendering takes ~750 ms on my machine. Could that seriously reduce it to around 100?
20:25 jcamins Let's see...
20:27 hm.
20:27 Hard to say.
20:27 It depends what's taking time.
20:27 pianohacker what's your preferred CGI profiling setup?
20:27 jcamins I use NYTProf.
20:28 pianohacker which requires setting all of the necessary CGI environment variables then running it from the command line, correct?
20:29 jcamins Nah, it just requires that you not do anything recursive.
20:29 pianohacker crap, no fibbonaci heaps in this patch. ah well
20:29 jcamins Set the require environment variables and copy out the NYTProf file before you get a zillion.
20:29 No, not in terms of programming.
20:29 In terms of page requests.
20:30 Something with lots of AJAX can leave you with no idea what profile you have.
20:30 pianohacker ahhhh, okay
20:30 jcamins And rendering them is slow.
20:31 pianohacker that'll make it hard to test my stuff, then. I use AJAX a lot ;)
20:31 jcamins There are ways to deal with it, I'm sure, I just never learned them.
20:31 And then I left CGI behind.
20:31 And it was glorious.
20:32 pianohacker and went on to a more confusing but faster set of errors
20:32 jcamins pianohacker: actually, I was referring to the package which automatically takes are of NYTProf profiling for you.
20:33 *takes care
20:33 pianohacker oh! nice. what is that?
20:34 jcamins Plack::Debug::NYTProf or something like that.
20:34 plack?
20:34 wahanui Plack is a FastCGI thingy that works with Koha. See http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Plack for more information.
20:34 jcamins ^^ it's commented out in at least one of the recommended configurations.
20:34 pianohacker jcamins++
20:34 That sounds quite handy
21:25 mtompset Sorry for the slow reply. Yes, still working on SAML... It is almost alpha ready. :)
