00:16 jcamins Does anyone remember the URL for an HTML5-based map of (I think) the Silk Road that actually allowed you to follow the map and changed the view as you went along?
00:32 Found it. NY Times.
00:32 dcook Neato. Post it?
00:33 jcamins Sure. http://www.nytimes.com/newsgra[…]/07/21/silk-road/
00:33 dcook Digital preservation is so interesting...
00:34 Although as Koha developers, I suppose we don't have much to do with it it except from the dissemination point of view.
00:34 jcamins Also cool, if you haven't seen it: http://linkedjazz.org/network/
00:47 dcook hehe, that is pretty cool
00:47 Is that using that JS you showed me the other day?
00:47 Started with a D maybe?
00:48 D3?
00:48 Looks like
00:49 jcamins dcook: I think so, yeah.
00:49 And, yes.

01:04 rangi damn straight
01:05 jcamins I have been asked to share a single article or blog post or the like which encapsulates my thoughts on bibliography and catalogs.
01:06 dcook Oooo
01:06 * dcook would read that
01:06 jcamins The problem is... *one*?
01:06 dcook I know, right?
01:06 I wrote up a thing on digital preservation this morning and it spiralled a bit out of control..
01:07 I just wanted to mention the basics
01:07 But then the basics became the slightly more than basic
01:07 Including links to the much more complex
01:07 jcamins Like, there's an argument to be made for this being a crucial starting point: http://semanticpublishing.word[…]-and-linked-data/
01:08 rangi jcamins: Silos are bad, mmmkay
01:08 jcamins But in fact that mostly fails to address any of my real concerns which are swept with "It is obvious that this is important."
01:08 rangi that could be your title
01:08 you're welcome
01:08 :-)
01:08 dcook hehe
01:08 jcamins: But is it obvious?
01:08 jcamins dcook: clearly not _that_ obvious or we wouldn't be dealing with MARC data and RDA.
01:09 rangi here's what i have to say about that
01:09 http://www.quickmeme.com/meme/3vc3os/
01:09 dcook :P
01:09 jcamins lol
01:10 rangi which only makes sense if you have seen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNry4PE93Y
01:10 jcamins This is the problem with doing things with academics. They have all these great references that you do not.
01:10 rangi true
01:10 dcook LOL
01:10 I like turtles
01:10 mmm
01:10 so true
01:10 jcamins lol
01:11 He'd been rehearsing what he was going to say all night!
01:11 rangi :)
01:11 dcook turtles?
01:11 jcamins Just because she didn't ask the right question was no reason not to go forward with it.
01:11 dcook turtles is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNry4PE93Y
01:11 rangi just like RDA
01:11 jut because it doesnt solve the problem .. no reason to not use it anyway
01:11 dcook Bah, I can never remember it..
01:12 Pretty much

04:21 * dcook grumbles about HTTP::OAI::Harvester
04:23 dcook Or maybe it's the data...
04:23 Probably the data
04:29 bag it's always the data - that's what talljoy says
04:30 dcook If it's not the data, then it's the handler...which is a possibility...but the thing seems to croak as soon as it tries to parse the DC
04:32 Hell, I'd be overjoyed if I could see a "asXML" method somewhere
04:32 Just so I know what I'm looking at
04:33 Or rather...so I could dump it and try parsing it myself
04:35 I'm using some code the author used as an example so maybe I need more error checking but still...:S
04:37 Hmm, I don't think our Koha OAI-PMH server handles "from" and "until" parameters...
04:40 Why do you think the element is empty you bloody parser...
04:40 Wait..
04:41 Because I'm an idiot
04:41 That's why
04:41 Hmm or not..
04:41 Damn, I was hoping it was my idiocy..
04:46 bag :)
04:47 drnoe_away left #koha
04:58 dcook Any folks using ssl for their Koha OPACs?
05:03 kathryn yep
05:03 :)
05:04 dcook Hmm, I take it you've fixed up your XSLT to use HTTPS with Amazon?
05:04 kathryn but I'm unlikely to be able to answer your next question'
05:04 dcook hehe
05:04 kathryn yeah, pass
05:04 but it's a clue!
05:04 dcook True true
05:04 kathryn I'll show you one
05:05 dcook Cool. That would be helpful :)
05:05 kathryn https://library.plantandfood.co.nz/
05:05 wahanui https://library.plantandfood.co.nz/ is probably a research library
05:05 bag we have opac's with SSL but not amazon
05:06 usually it ports to SSL when you need to log in
05:06 dcook Hmm
05:06 kathryn: Looks like you guys have the same issue then
05:06 As I'm sure everyone would
05:07 Users should get warning messages in their browser that while the connection is encrypted, they're bringing in unencrypted resources
05:07 Such as the amazon images
05:07 bag hmm is that really an issue?
05:08 kathryn I recall it being ok for, reasons...
05:08 but things change!
05:09 bag so do the amazon calls come back to the browser or to the server?
05:09 cait joined #koha
05:09 bag never mind I'm tired
05:10 I'm heading home I think
05:10 kathryn I'll bring it up with good folks here to check again too, I have to run away - my excuse is WINE!
05:10 dcook Thanks for the help, kathryn :)
05:10 kathryn you're welcome dcook sorry to bail :)
05:10 dcook No worries. There's wine!
05:11 bag THERE IS wine :)
05:11 kathryn night :) and hi cait!
05:11 cait night kathryn :)
05:11 and hi #koha
05:13 dcook hey cait :)
05:13 bag: Practically speaking, it might not be much of an issue
05:13 But in theory, I'm sure it could be
05:14 Password sniffing and such should be eliminated due to the SSL, but the calls out to Amazon would be in the clear, so that could be intercepted and something different handled over as if it were from amazon
05:15 Likely to happen? Probably not
05:15 But...
05:27 Oooh...I think I found that method I wanted..
05:29 Or not...
05:29 * cait can't follow
05:29 * dcook is grumbling about HTTP::OAI::Harvester
05:30 cait oh
05:30 dcook I can retrieve the records but I can't print out any metadata at all
05:30 I can just get the OAI identifier and datestamp, but when I try to get the DC metadata...nada
05:31 It's there...but HTTP::OAI::Harvester doesn't seem to be parsing it as it should...unless I'm missing something painfully obvious
05:31 But this is even using the author's example :/
05:31 Easy access to OAI Dublincore...right
05:32 Unless...
05:32 wahanui unless is probably meant to give code that reads more like natural language? but i'm not a fan either
05:32 dcook Maybe it is my idiocy
05:33 * dcook swears under his breath
05:33 dcook \o/
05:37 cait figured it out?
05:40 dcook I thought that it was auto-loading the OAI_DC parser
05:40 Because all the examples suggest that it does
05:40 But it seems that it doesn't
05:40 I loaded it, and it worked ;)
05:41 Not that I really want to use the parser most likely
05:41 I think I'll fetch the records, output them as XML objects, store them in the DB (as per Galen's suggestion), then transform them into MARC21
05:55 Too many tabs...
05:55 Drowning in tabs...
06:05 kathryn, bag: Apparently, Amazon images don't come up with https
06:05 So that's probably why it's ok ;)
06:05 Images or total security
06:06 @later tell kathryn That library.plantandfood.co.nz site seems to be missing a few images. I get errors when I load up the search results in the OPAC
06:06 huginn` dcook: The operation succeeded.
06:08 dcook Hmm, looks like we do respect "from" and "until" in oai-pmh...hmm
06:31 * magnuse waves
06:32 dcook hey ya magnuse :)
06:35 magnuse hiya dcook
06:38 alex_a_ joined #koha
06:40 cait bbiab
06:42 dcook Eeeeeee!
06:42 I've finally figured out how to get the metadata out as a string of XML!
06:42 mtj joined #koha
06:42 dcook hey ya mtj
06:42 magnuse is that the latest model from asus?
06:42 dcook :p
06:43 Funny thing about asus...
06:43 magnuse kia ora mtj
06:43 dcook My 2010 Eeepc has a RAM slot
06:43 My wife's 2012 Eeepc has the RAM soldered on :S
06:43 magnuse yuk
06:43 dcook I can't get RAM old enough for my machine, and I can't open hers up
06:44 magnuse good for them... nah, not really, in the long run
06:45 mtj joined #koha
06:45 magnuse dcook: you have seen bug 6536, right? looks like there is some overlap with your work regarding marc conversion
06:45 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6536 enhancement, P3, ---, m.de.rooy, ASSIGNED , Z3950 Enhancements: SRU targets, MARC conversion, additional XSLT processing (umbrella report)
06:45 mtj heya dcook , magnuse
06:47 dcook magnuse: Yeah, I took a little look, but it doesn't look like Marcel has gotten very far with the XSLT/conversions
06:47 mtj: I was wondering if you were still alive. Haven't seen you around in ages.
06:48 magnuse: Plus, I'm starting to think the conversion won't be the toughest part
06:48 Now...I'm starting to wonder how to harvest in an efficient way
06:48 * magnuse is curious
06:48 dcook It seems crazy to harvest the entire database every time you want to harvest new records
06:48 magnuse yeah, oai-pmh lets you not do that
06:49 dcook How's that?
06:49 magnuse you can ask for records that changed since a given time
06:49 let me see if i can find something about it
06:49 dcook Yeah, I was wondering about that
06:49 "from" and "until"?
06:49 magnuse yeah, something like that
06:49 dcook I suppose I wonder about the reliability of that
06:50 magnuse there you go: http://www.openarchives.org/OA[…]estampshttp://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotoc​ol.html#SelectiveHarvestingandDatestamps
06:50 dcook I'm going to look at how Koha forms its datestamp for OAI-PMH
06:50 magnuse oops double paste
06:50 http://www.openarchives.org/OA[…]tingandDatestamps
06:50 dcook Mmmm
06:50 magnuse "Harvesters may use datestamps to harvest only those records that were created, deleted, or modified within a specified date range. To specify datestamp-based selective harvesting, datestamps are included as values of the optional arguments, from and until, in the ListRecords and ListIdentifiers requests."
06:50 dcook That should work
06:51 mtj dcook, yep - still here!, but have not been chatting on irc much lately
06:51 magnuse "Repositories must support selective harvesting with the from and until arguments expressed at day granularity. Optional support for seconds granularity is indicated in the response to the Identify request."
06:51 dcook magnuse++
06:51 Oh...seconds, eh?
06:51 Oh right, that's there too
06:51 bigbrovar joined #koha
06:51 dcook I guess I would pass the latest datestamp on record to the function each time it runs
06:52 Or not even that..
06:52 wahanui hmmm... not even that is cold :)
06:52 dcook No, probably that..
06:52 wahanui: wahanui is a strange duck
06:52 wahanui ...but wahanui is a bot|a repository of important and useful and accurate information or at least partially slow.|a little bit creepy.|right sometimes...
06:52 christophe_c joined #koha
06:52 dcook wahanui: wahanui is also a strange duck
06:52 wahanui okay, dcook.

06:52 dcook wahanui?
06:52 wahanui dcook?
06:52 christophe_c hello #koha
06:52 * dcook scowls
06:52 dcook salut christophe_c :)

06:53 magnuse :-)
06:53 christophe_c bonjour magnuse dcook ;-)
06:53 dcook magnuse: I've successfully harvested oai_dc records from Koha :)
06:53 So I guess the next step is...
06:53 Maybe start with the database work
06:53 I'm going to look at Marcel's bug again
06:53 I don't think its related though
06:54 Oh wait...right..
06:54 magnuse i was just thinking of the "transform marc" part of 6536
06:54 dcook I see what you're saying
06:54 Yeah, I wonder what Marcel has in mind
06:55 I suppose storing MARC21 and UNIMARC in the import_records table
06:55 So perhaps I could store my oai_dc in there too
06:55 If the transformation happens on import..
06:55 I suppose my timing is rather bad with all of this :p
06:56 lds joined #koha
06:56 magnuse nah, just have a chat with marcel and make sure you are not duplicating your efforts :-)
06:56 dcook I'll probably want feedback from Galen too as he works on making Koha more metadata independent
06:57 Well, it's nearly 5 anyway
06:57 4:57pm
06:57 One more day until beer o'clock...
06:59 magnuse :-)
06:59 friday?
06:59 wahanui friday is pizzaday!
06:59 magnuse yay!

10:42 NateC joined #koha
10:42 bigbrovar am having problems getting matching rules in stage marc for import tool to work with koha 3.12 (debian squeeze packages) .. I was sure to do a koha-rebuild-zebra -f  -v instance before doing the marc import.. yet koha found 0 marc for the ISSN rule even though a manual search of issn included in the marc file to be imported displayed results.
10:43 I did encounter this problem too a while back.. and it took a while before it started working.. thing is I don't even know what I did differently then (just the same thing I had always done)
10:44 I am thinking maybe if I run this koha-rebuild-zebra -f - --usmarc -v instance instead of koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v instance

11:35 jcamins I noticed that.
11:38 magnuse huh? no more koha?
11:39 oleonard No more Koha at Samuel Merritt University
11:39 jcamins magnuse: yep, in the newsletter Daniel says that Samuel Merritt is dropping Koha next year.
11:39 oleonard It would be instructive to know why
11:39 magnuse ouch!
11:41 (guess i forgot to actually read the newsletter...)
11:41 oleonard I always read the newsletter to find out what fashions the Koha celebs are wearing this season

11:47 magnuse oleonard: lol
11:55 oleonard I don't understand  Bug 10656... My shelving locations are correctly sorted by description. The SQL in GetAuthorisedValues says "ORDER BY category, lib, lib_opac"
11:55 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=10656 normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , shelving locations not alpha on search
11:55 oleonard I wonder if in those examples lib is different than lib_opac, causing weird sorting?
11:56 Since GetAuthorisedValues gets an $opac parameter I guess we could change the sort based on that
11:57 tcohen morning kf
11:58 oleonard nengard: Could you check the authorized values for the examples you posted on Bug 10656?
11:58 nengard checking

12:02 nengard the other one has codes in the description and friendly text in the lib_opac
12:02 soooo ....
12:02 kf tcohen: kind of me.... but not really right now
12:02 nengard shouldn't the opac sort by lib_opac?
12:02 instead of description
12:02 or lib
12:02 kf tcohen: i could provide you with a couple of unit tests i wrote... until i reached the conclusion in the last comment
12:03 oleonard nengard: I would say in the opac it should sort by lib_opac. I just wanted to confirm that that was what was causing your particular sort issue.
12:03 nengard cool
12:03 will update the bug
12:04 kf tcohen: and sorry - in a meeting in a minute
12:04 tcohen good luck kf

13:48 cwust Hi kf
13:49 I have problem whit koha
13:49 can you help me?
13:50 kf it depends on the question
13:53 cwust ok, When I edit a partner I have a message "You don't have permisson for do it"
13:55 nengard left #koha
13:56 cwust and my user setting is: catalogue and borrowers (Add or modify borrowers)
13:57 jcamins Do you have IndependantBranches turned on? If you have IndependantBranches turned on and the patron is from a different library, you won't be able to edit it.
13:57 cwust but the change is done
13:58 jcamins Oh. So it's just an incorrect error message display.
13:58 What version?
13:58 wahanui hmmm... version is always noted in a comment on top
13:58 cwust 3.12.03

14:02 jcamins Hm. It works for me, so it must be a configuration.
14:02 I'm out of ideas, sorry.
14:02 Someone else might have some suggestions.
14:02 cwust what can I do for solved this problem?
14:03 jcamins The first thing I'd do is see if there is a problem for superlibrarian users.
14:03 cwust One more thing
14:04 jcamins Then I'd either e-mail the list or look through the manual to see if there are any system preferences that could cause the behavior you're seeing.
14:05 cwust The edit button works for the user superlibrarian
14:05 jcamins Okay, that is a good clue. I would suspect that there is probably a system preference to disable editing other branches' patrons, but I don't know what it is.

15:37 jcamins oleonard: great!
15:37 And, yes, for another hour or so.
15:37 Thoughts?
15:37 oleonard It looks good and works well. I've got a couple of questions about the implementation
15:38 jcamins Hooray! I've also asked some folks with Windows to test it on every browser they can find.
15:38 What questions?
15:38 oleonard I would have put browser.js in intranet-tmpl/js rather than intranet-tmpl/lib/koha because in the past lib has been the place for 3rd-party libraries
15:39 jcamins We can certainly do that.
15:39 I didn't see a js directory, so I put it in the lib directory.
15:39 oleonard Not sure if that distinction is useful going forward, it's just they way I've understood it.
15:39 Yeah we don't have one yet outside the theme directory
15:41 There is some commented-out code in results.tt, [% dumper.dump(SEARCH_RESULTS) %]
15:41 Is that useful?
15:41 jcamins No.
15:41 I can remove that.
15:41 oleonard I haven't looked at the code carefully yet. What is that JavaScript doing on the results page?
15:41 jcamins It is recording the search results.
15:42 The paging is done 98% client-side.
15:44 oleonard Would it be hard to add a title attribute to the "previous" and "next" links with the corresponding titles?
15:44 jcamins Yes.
15:44 oleonard :(
15:44 jcamins That would fail on any browser other than Chrome.
15:46 If I were to use localstorage instead of cookies, that would work, but it would also reduce compatibility.
15:46 oleonard Well it's certainly not a deal-breaker.

15:47 pianohacker joined #koha
15:48 oleonard Hi JoeLib001
15:48 JoeLib001 Is there a way I can map an aquisition for orders field to the marc record?
15:49 I am specifically talking about the Koha Link field in the MARC Structure / Advanced Contraints section.
15:51 I would be wanting to link the aqorders.budget_id field to a specific 900 field / subfield.
15:51 jcamins JoeLib001: I don't think so, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
15:51 JoeLib001 :-)
15:52 I was afraid that was the anser. XD

16:02 melia joined #koha
16:05 oleonard jcamins: Have you ever worked with a JavaScript template system?
16:05 jcamins oleonard: what do you mean?
16:05 oleonard moustache, handlebars, etc.
16:05 jcamins Ah.
16:05 Yes.
16:05 I'm using handlebars.
16:06 I like it.
16:06 I started with mustache, but I didn't like it so much.
16:06 I found it a little over-magical.
16:06 oleonard I have not, but I often wonder if Koha would benefit from something like it
16:06 Looking at browser.js made me think of it
16:06 bigbrovar I can't seem to get issn matching rule to work using marc stage import.. it keeps telling me 0 match found even though the issn exist in the records and can be searched from opac and staff client
16:06 jcamins oleonard: https://github.com/biblionarra[…]tree/master/views
16:07 bigbrovar am using the debian squeeze packages for koha 3.12
16:08 jcamins bigbrovar: you're trying to match against records already in the database, right?
16:08 bigbrovar jcamins: yes so that I can add items to the records
16:08 jcamins oleonard: I quite like handlebars, but I'm not sure how much it would help in Koha.
16:08 bigbrovar: darn. That would've been an easy solution.
16:08 bigbrovar using issn as a match
16:09 oleonard jcamins: I don't understand it well enough to know
16:09 bigbrovar jcamins: :) but so far koha keeps telling me 0 match using the issn rule..
16:10 jcamins oleonard: the problem as I see it would be breaking the templates up enough that we could make use of partials for client-side rendering.
16:11 bigbrovar from my little experience with the marc stage upload tool.. the matching rule is a 50%.. I had similar issues with isbn rules before it started working (didn't even do anything differently) and then when it worked.. I had to import in batches cus it only did part of the first batch and ignored the rest when it should have done a match of all the items..
16:12 maybe I should do a koha-rebuild-zebra -f --u usmarc -v instance instead of a koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v instance ?
16:13 jcamins bigbrovar: that is very unlikely to fix it.
16:13 However, you can try (but disable the incremental cronjob!).
16:14 bigbrovar jcamins: incremental cronjob?
16:14 jcamins bigbrovar: right, because it uses xml.
16:14 JoeLib001 Would one just be able to add aqorders to the kohafield tables in the /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/a​dmin/marc_subfields_structure.pl?
16:15 bigbrovar jcamins: have u ever had issues with the matching rule before? any advise/idea how I can troubleshoot or what I could be doing wrong?
16:17 mcooper joined #koha
16:18 jcamins JoeLib001: I suspect it would just result in a mess, but I could be wrong.
16:18 bigbrovar: when the matching rules have failed for me, it's because I had a bad rule.
16:20 bigbrovar jcamins: am using the default rule.. maybe I should check it if anything is amiss
16:20 kf JoeLib001: what are you trying to achieve?
16:20 jcamins I've never used the built-in rule, so it could be that it doesn't work. Perhaps someone else can shed light on that.
16:21 kf bigbrovar: could it be something like hyphens/no hyphens in your isbn?
16:21 i haven't read all so i might be totally off
16:21 jcamins oleonard: the searches are rendered client-side, particularly if you click the knowledge trail maps on the right.
16:22 oleonard Very cool jcamins
16:22 mcooper_ joined #koha
16:22 jcamins But achieving similar results with Koha would require a lot of template restructuring.
16:23 JoeLib001 kf: I am trying to link a marc subfield to a koha aqorders field. That way I don't have to type something that Koha already knows about.

16:23 kf JoeLib001: first question? ;)
16:24 first question?
16:24 wahanui "What are you trying to do?" or "What is the goal?"
16:24 JoeLib001 kf: I thought I had successfully convinced our cataloger that they didn't need a random 945 line with certain information, but alas. :-)
16:24 kf ah catalogers...
16:24 well the information is in acq... so why store it again in the marc record?
16:24 JoeLib001 kf: That was my first suggestion. XD
16:25 kf I was wondering about the use case/workflow
16:25 the problem is such linking wouldn't work at all for some libraries like ours
16:25 we are updating the data nightly from a union catalog... so those data would be overwritten all the time
16:25 so it's nothing we ever looked into
16:25 JoeLib001 kf: We are currently only using Koha for Journals and Acquisitions. The books get cataloged on a different system, but they import my records from Koha. XD
16:26 kf ah

16:29 kf: Yeah, I have been hinting that we should just make the switch. I don't have enough people on my side though. XD
16:30 kf i see the problem, but i think it's currently not possible to do what they want

23:20 Anyone have an opinion of them, positive or negative?
23:21 jcamins pianohacker: use FF if you're having trouble under Chrome.
23:21 Oh.
23:21 Different question.
23:21 I like them.
23:21 Other than the fact that they don't always work under Chrome.
23:22 pianohacker jcamins: Good to hear. I'll have to poke at that code while I'm using them, to see if I can fix that problem
23:22 Do you have steps to reproduce?
23:22 jcamins I did, but did I report a bug? That's the big question.
23:23 Apparently not.
23:23 Drat.
23:24 wizzyrea I like them, I think
23:24 pianohacker Hold on, let me check my notes. The big green button makes rangi say "write a unit test!", where's the other one...
23:24 ah!
23:24 jcamins It has to do with the setTimeout for the fadeout getting out of sync.
23:24 * pianohacker presses the "<gmcharlt> file a bug" button
23:24 wizzyrea I don't like the "pasting doesn't always tell the entry box you've put stuff in" but again, there's probably not a bug for that.
