05:32 magnuse kia ora cait!
05:32 cait morning magnuse :)
05:46 * mtj waves to bag, magnuse cait
05:46 cait hi mtj :)
05:47 mtj hey cait, i loved those kohacon fotos of you all
05:47 magnuse hiya mtj
05:47 cait :)
05:48 mtj very very jealous
05:48 * magnuse too
05:48 mtj peeps, i was looking at this again, last nite... ->  http://try.discourse.org
05:49 http://www.discourse.org/
05:50 i was wondering if it might be a good fit for Koha project...
05:51 magnuse is that like a free software version of disqus?
05:51 mtj its free, we can run it on our own server, etc..
05:51 magnuse what's not to like? ;-)
05:51 oh, ruby?
05:51 wahanui somebody said ruby was easy to install. Any > 1.8.7 works fine
05:51 mtj its more like a free version of stack-exchange
05:52 magnuse oh
05:52 so it would be for koha-related discussions?
05:52 i thought it was comments on individual catalogues...
05:53 hm, i still can't get to the wiki. cait and mtj, can you?
05:53 cait not this morning
05:53 mtj nor me
05:56 magnuse :-(
05:56 who can give it a kick? i guess that info is... on the wiki
05:57 mtj heh, yeah, it is
05:58 gmcharlt, rangi have logins ^
05:58 its an ESI box (i think)
05:59 magnuse or maybe it doesn't need actual kicking, someone in the us was able to get in yesterday when i couldn't
06:00 cait i could still reach it then too
06:00 maybe someone locked us out? :)
06:01 magnuse could be :-)
06:02 mtj http://isup.me/wiki.koha-community.org
06:02 looks down
06:04 magnuse:  discourse could be an option for our failed SE attempt...
06:04 http://lists.katipo.co.nz/publ[…]ember/037402.html
06:06 magnuse wow, that was 2 years ago? :-)
06:06 if someone sets it up i'll be glad to try it
06:07 mtj discourse is made by one of the orig. SE devs, Jeff Atwood
06:07 magnuse nice
06:08 * mtj just throwing the idea out there, for the logs...
06:12 mtj discourse with docker, on a digitalocean VM
06:12 -> https://meta.discourse.org/t/b[…]sing-docker/12156
06:17 fyi: discourse was mentioned during those inital discussions
06:17 http://lists.katipo.co.nz/publ[…]ember/037409.html
06:17 ... but it only recently had a 1.x release
06:19 anyhoo, something to ponder

06:44 petter Hi koha folks!
06:45 magnuse hei petter

06:46 mtj: could you get on your bike and find eythian and give him a kick? ;-)

07:26 Oak :)
07:26 magnuse :-)
07:28 gaetan_B joined #koha
07:29 gaetan_B hello
07:41 ashimema I have a feeling my current dev is going to be a bit bold for Koha ;)
07:43 ILL (Inter Library Loans).. with a fairly chunky amount of the code based on khalls Koha::Object classes, pianohackers Koha::Service object (which no-one out there has really seen yet) and the addition of AngularJS for the client side interface.  Might get some people thinking though :)
07:43 magnuse sounds cool!
07:44 how far along are you? i'll be working on ill in 2015 :-)
07:44 ashimema I've learnt allot lately working on another project (Mojo, AngularJS and Bootstrap based).. i've brought a few of them to the table with this piece.
07:45 put it this way magnuse.. I need somthing to show the boss by the end of the week.. we're on a sprint here with Colin working on British Library API integration and Alex working on the data storage and configuration side..
07:45 so with the three of us hacking at it.. it's going reasonably well ;)
07:46 We also did allot of work first time around using ARTemail as the interface.. but we've basically ditched that with the British Libraries move to a reasonable decent API instead
07:47 The real far future aim I'd like to see.. is for our dev to go a bit further and allow Koha to do both sides and act as a service provider implimenting most fo the BL api the other way around..
07:47 but for this sprint we're just aiming for making requests to BL.. not supplying ;)
07:49 magnuse cool
07:49 are you thinking about facilitating other protocols/apis? in norway we will be basing ill on ncip
07:49 ashimema random interface question.. with Angular you can obviously affect dom with immediate effect without requiring a page reload.. so I have an option when adding a request.. to immediately add said request to the visible requests table, then highlight it and remove it if there's a failure between the client and the server.. or the other way around.. only adding to the user interface once the 'ok' signal has made it's way back from
07:49 the server.
07:49 wahanui i heard the server was behind a Firewall and Reverse Proxy
07:50 ashimema Well.. the way we've implimented it.. it should be trivial to write an api specific driver to plugin to it I think..
07:50 that's the bit alex has been working on..
07:50 magnuse very cool
07:51 ashimema a server side user configuration to map api calls to koha classes and results.
07:51 but it's all rather BL api specific at the moment in terms of whats actually visible..
07:51 code wise.
07:51 magnuse yay. i have no time for it now, but ill will be one of my main concerns in 2015
07:52 ashimema but yeah.. the idea would be that using this config file.. you can effectively map in one place and then have all the data dynamically added to display using said mapping.
07:52 it's the process that may need some tinkering with.. if the process is entirely different that could lead to some interesting challenges ;)
07:53 But then.. BL's process is pretty all encompassing.. so hopefully pretty much all others would fit within it somewhere ;)
07:55 JesseM_a_ joined #koha
07:59 barton_a1ay joined #koha
07:59 magnuse sounds promising :-)
08:01 i guess it's also a question of making koha keep track of all the right statuses etc, but if you have flexibility in mind, that can probably be worked out
08:02 ashimema yeah.. that's what I meant by process really.. what statuses/steps your meant to go through for your particular api
08:03 rangi joined #koha
08:03 ashimema we're aiming for flexibility.. but obviosly it's hard to konw what there cuold be out there ;)

09:24 magnuse papa: yay! you don't happen to be able to kick http://debian.koha-community.org/ ? it's been down for a while
09:24 or unavailable, at least
09:30 papa umm, no I'm afraid, that's way out of my jurisdiction
09:30 magnuse ah, no worries! eythian is the one we need, probably?
09:31 papa ashamed to admit, but don't know. it is possible though. I'll ask him and Chris tomorrow
09:32 magnuse excellent! now be on your way ;-)
09:32 papa sure, have a great day :)

12:10 tcohen morning!
12:22 magnuse ¡hola tcohen!
12:22 tcohen hola magnuse
12:22 edveal joined #koha
12:22 magnuse tcohen: can yo uget to the wiki?
12:22 tcohen nope
12:23 magnuse we need to gang up on the first bywaterian to wake up, then, i think? ;-)
12:24 tcohen i wanted to post my photos and cannot login
12:24 maybe biblibre? i'm not sure who hosts it
12:24 magnuse: about bug 12750
12:24 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12750 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Needs Signoff , koha-create should be able to configure SRU server for the created instance
12:25 tcohen do u think koha-sru --enable|--disable is needed?
12:27 ibeardslee joined #koha
12:28 magnuse tcohen: dunno. my thought was that a separate script would be more flexible - make it possible to turn the public server off and on after the instance has been created
12:29 also, i think koha-create is quite big already - the less we add to it the better  (as long as it fits into a separate script, of course)
12:34 edveal_ joined #koha
12:35 tcohen adding switches cannot be avoided I think
12:35 i'll think of it
12:35 but i've already packaged several functions into a bashlib
12:40 edveal Is there a Koha meeting soon?
12:46 barton anyone else having trouble getting to http://wiki.koha-community.org/ ?
12:47 edveal Yes. I can’t get there either.
12:49 barton yeah. downforeveryoneojustme.com couldn't see it either.

13:56 rocio joined #koha
13:57 tcohen still 6:57 in seattle
14:00 oleonard Surely one of those cats would have woken him up by now!
14:03 talljoy lol
14:03 you would think so!
14:21 cait sql-- today
14:21 i need to see all borrowers of type x and see if they have a book x (full list of borrowers, null or barcode for those which have it checked out) and i fail
14:35 talljoy is it a darmduscher today cait?
14:36 poor sql.
14:37 are you looking for one specific book that is checked out?  or checked out in the past?
14:38 cait lol
14:39 talljoy: i got it now :)
14:39 talljoy good!
14:39 cait using a left join (select ....)
14:39 it's for a school
14:39 talljoy yes sounds about right
14:39 cait a complete list of the class and a column where they can see if they have checked out the specific book they are supposed to read yet
14:39 talljoy gotcha!
14:40 cait glad it's working now sql++
14:59 * tcohen hates side-effects
15:00 cait tcohen: what's the side effect?
15:01 tcohen i'm trying to write tests for the facets retrieval code
15:01 and it seems that on GRS-1, some stuff depends on side-effects to work
15:08 gmcharlt wiki rebooted, sorry for the downtime
15:08 looks like crawler at first glance
15:08 cait tcohen: not so surprised...
15:09 talljoyphone thanks gmcharlt
15:10 cait gmcharlt++
15:18 druthb gmcharlt++
15:26 oleonard I did not know you could use the template name in the way the patch for Bug 13112 does
15:26 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13112 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, veron, Needs Signoff , Add name of template file in html comment for each '.tt' file.
15:26 ashimema we've been having a mare with crawlers today.
15:27 oleonard I wonder if there is any reason not to check template name in an include to determine what page one is on
15:27 (that is, what page the include file is being included by)
15:28 ...as opposed to setting a variable in the script and checking that, like we do with the OPAC's usermenu.inc
15:40 magnuse gmcharlt++
15:49 nengard joined #koha
15:58 oleonard My bug fix has feature-creeped.
15:58 Feature-crept?
16:03 * oleonard runs into Bug 12585 again
16:03 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12585 major, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, In Discussion , Tag searching broken if QueryParser is turned on
16:03 cait sounds painful
16:03 ok, leaving for today - cya later all :)
16:03 cait left #koha
16:14 gaetan_B bye
16:33 oleonard If you want to set  OPACXSLTResultsDisplay to a path (not a full URL) what is it relative to? For instance, what would the correct path be for the default MARC21slim2OPACResults.xsl?
16:37 reiveune bye
16:37 reiveune left #koha
16:46 oleonard Figured it out. Full system path, not relative to the site root or something like that.
17:02 tcohen oleonard: did u find a way to reproduce it?
17:03 oleonard tcohen: I don't really know how to go about finding out why it happens for me but not for you
17:07 tcohen oleonard: but the steps to reproduce are just enabling queryparser?
17:08 oleonard Well, I get the error if QueryParser is on. I don't get the error if QueryParser is off. But I suppose it could be a combination of QueryParser and other preferences as well.
17:16 tcohen what bothers me, is that if QueryParser has problems loading the file, it silently falls back to no-QueryParser

18:51 methinks we might have to summon forth gmcharlt again
18:55 oleonard But we just cleaned up after the last time! Fine, I'll get the candles and the goat.
18:56 tcohen oleonard: i already got a goat
18:56 bring the knife

20:26 ashimema :P
20:26 pianohacker anyway, hi ashimema
20:26 talljoy lol
20:27 ashimema been playing with your Services stuff ;)
20:27 talljoy wiki still down?
20:27 ashimema tis nice
20:27 talljoy or down again?
20:27 pianohacker glad to hear.
20:27 any major quibbles with the API?
20:29 ashimema not really.. seems to work nice (though I am hoping to get TO_JSON methods added tot he Koha::Object base classes as then it'll work muhc mroe nicely with them ;) )
20:29 pianohacker ooh! That'd quite nice
20:29 ashimema I have doctored the output routine in Koha::Service a tiny bit..
20:29 pianohacker JSONification of anything but base types is a bit of a hack atm
20:29 ashimema: what change did you make?
20:30 ashimema You had JSON->new->convert_blessed->encode
20:30 I found it'd only work with
20:30 talljoy gmcharlt i'm guessing your cats are playing with computer cables and taking out the wiki?  :-)
20:30 gmcharlt xcache is not playing nice
20:30 ashimema JSON->new->allow_blessed(1)->c​onvert_blessed(1)->encode
20:30 gmcharlt I'm now threatening to toss it into the kibble dish
20:30 ashimema but I may well have been using it wrong.. wasn't exactly sure how you intended to use it.
20:31 talljoy gmcharlt dooeet.
20:32 ashimema but yeah.. I found that allowing blessed and conveting them seemed to do the trick pretty 'magically' in most cases..
20:32 just need to add those TO_JSON methods to the 'clever' object when we need them ;)
20:32 cait ashimema: what about you qa the wiating holds queue patch? :P
20:32 * cait tries that delegating thing heh
20:33 ashimema bug number ciat ;)
20:33 cait but it seems like many people like it
20:33 ashimema oh.. that one.. ;)
20:33 cait so we should just go with it
20:33 pianohacker ashimema: That seems reasonable enough. I think my only reason for not having allow_blessed enabled was to make sure that one didn't accidentally send something sensitive or gigantic back to the user, but if that causes more problems than it solves in practice go for it
20:33 ashimema yeah.. I should probably get on and qa it
20:34 I'de held off untll i'de really got my head around the objects.. but I think i'm there now ;)
20:34 cait probably omre then me
20:34 :)
20:34 ashimema I think I foud that convert_blessed didn't do anything unless you allowed blessed first ?
20:34 hense my confusion to start with.. but I do understand your reasoning..
20:35 cait hmpf
20:35 some RM wanted this patch asap... but the test plan reads:
20:35 ashimema I have a love hate relationship with the Objects cait..
20:35 cait Test Plan: 1) Wait until Sunday
20:35 talljoy HA
20:35 ashimema haha.. nice test plan
20:35 talljoy is step 2) Drink copious amounts of Beer.
20:35 ashimema think I have the same love/hate relationship with them that khall has now..
20:36 rangi joubu and I did some work with the objects, they have some bugs, and i dont like them, but i dont hate them enough to block it
20:36 talljoy 3) say, "whatever" and pass it anyways
20:36 pianohacker ashimema: my understanding from the docs was that convert_blessed only converted objects that had an explicit TO_JSON method, whereas allow_blessed would attempt to convert everything, using a TO_JSON if it existed
20:36 rangi the autoload for creating accessors is broken
20:36 ashimema dbic still offers us a massive amout which koha::objects obliterate in their current standings
20:36 cait bug 13115 btw
20:36 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13115 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Signed Off , Holidays.t will fail some unit tests on Sundays
20:36 rangi not really, they are still dbic under the hood, its not removing anything
20:37 ashimema but with our basic hatred of using dbic properly I'm clucking at having object to allow us at least some of the niceities
20:37 rangi its just providing a consistent interface
20:37 because not everything is in a db
20:37 logical representation of objects should not be tied to their storage representation
20:37 compsci 101
20:37 cait :)
20:38 ashimema indeed..
20:38 cait so we can mix in yaml and stuff like that?
20:38 rangi and conf
20:38 and stuff in cache
20:38 ashimema agreed, i'm liking the consistency it would hopefully bring.. though of course the same consistency could be achieved with some rules..
20:38 rangi and stuff from external sources
20:38 ashimema ->get_columns for example is list when you use koha::objects
20:39 and some other nice accessors dbic provides
20:39 rangi yep
20:39 ashimema indeed..
20:39 rangi like i say, the objects have some major bugs
20:39 ashimema my ill work does exactly that..
20:39 rangi but they are an ok start and can be extended
20:40 ashimema we have a config object with the same general accessor pattern that utilises yaml as the storage medium.. and an api object that similarly has the same general accessor pattern that obviosly queries an api
20:40 rangi personally my inclination would be just to have Koha::Borrowers etc .. which is a class accessor base and uses koha::database and koha::cache
20:40 but in the interests of moving forward, i can live with Koha::Object
20:40 ashimema so in our work we have db, api and congif files.. all feeling 'nice' to access in a standardised way..
20:41 rangi yep
20:41 ashimema think we basically agree rangi :). not the best approach.. but at least it's moving forward
20:42 rangi yep
20:42 so we get to the point were we have a 3 line .pl
20:42 and the rest is in the templates, and the modules
20:42 thats where im hoping we get to :)
20:43 gmcharlt wiki is happier now
20:43 ashimema that's exactly where I'm aiming
20:43 rangi.. you should play with pianohackers Service work.. that's really nice too..
20:43 rangi yep, ive been keeping an eye on it
20:44 ashimema leads to a prett nice abstraction exactly like that.. the svc/*.pl turn into tiny little 3 liners ;)
20:44 rangi yup :)
20:44 ashimema pianohacker.. I'm probably gonna mostly run with that like I did with shib btw.. attributing to you.. but really pushing it through if you end up slacking ;)
20:45 I want angular in koha ;)
20:45 and I now hav a beautiful example of it :)_
20:45 rangi just make sure it passes the accessibility tests, and it'll go in fine ashimema
20:45 (we have quite a few blind librarians around the world using Koha now)
20:45 pianohacker translation is another concern, no?
20:45 rangi that too
20:45 but i think they are both solvable
20:45 pianohacker That's one reason I've been putting off submitting it
20:46 ashimema: that's understandable, especially at the moment.
20:46 ashimema yeah.. I'm still getting my head around accessability and translation with angular..
20:46 rangi ashimema: we have a blind staff member who is our accessibility expert, helped write the nz govt guidelines, so we can get him to test stuff
20:47 ashimema I'm pretty confident there are ways to make it nice.. but I've not delved far enough into that area yet..
20:47 ooh.. cool
20:47 might be asking for their help in testing when it comes to it ;)
20:47 rangi on the fly translation, in the browser, is probably doable now with modern computers
20:48 there is angular-gettext
20:48 which can handle .po files
20:48 ashimema well in the work i'm doing so far translation should be pretty trivial..
20:48 rangi https://angular-gettext.rocketeer.be/
20:48 ashimema it's the accessability i'm far less sure about.. I've not played enough into screen readers and the like yet.
20:48 cait i have a library i can maybe ask to test something too - if it can run on a sandbox
20:48 rangi if we do something like this, then the translators dont have to learn a new way to translate
20:49 ashimema ooh.. cool.
20:49 thanks for that heads up rangi :)
20:49 pianohacker rangi: out of curiosity, what are the major reasons to do that as opposed to something like what we did for the .pref files?
20:49 * cait loves to see conversations like that on #koha
20:49 cait make it happen! :)
20:50 rangi we use po stuff for the pref files too
20:50 ashimema :)
20:51 ngAria.. seems to be all about accessibility.. that's promising.
20:51 pianohacker rangi: right, but then the usual process is applied to create translated .pref files as opposed to doing the translation at runtime, correct?
20:51 rangi yep
20:51 * pianohacker hasn't touched that code in a few years, so apologies if he's off base
20:51 rangi cos they are just .tt files
20:51 pianohacker they're not still YAML?
20:51 rangi but if we doing fancy stuff in angular, be kinda cool to just use the .po files and translate on the fly
20:52 hmm they might be actually
20:52 either way, they are static, and depend on you creating the templates
20:53 pianohacker okay, just curious. Would we be splitting up .po's so the browser doesn't have to load the entire .po for a given language to translate a single page?
20:53 rangi exactly
20:53 ashimema I'm using similar for a yaml based config file for ILL ;)
20:53 but that mostly due to having such a config file..
20:53 pianohacker okay, makes sense, thanks
20:53 rangi in theory anyway, id have to test it to see if it was useful
20:53 that would also make for easier contextual translating too .. in theory
20:53 ashimema for other angular stuff I have no reason against using something at browser level
20:53 pianohacker ooh, yeah.
20:53 rangi next step
20:53 wahanui i think next step is to send it to the patches mailing list
20:53 rangi click on the word that is wrong, and submit a better translation .. in the browser :)
20:54 pianohacker the main reason I ask is because rancor is loading about a MB of JSON for the framework, and that's a major pain point
20:54 but that  sounds really cool
20:55 ashimema I've been wanting to hack the .po's into more managable chunks for a while..
20:55 and yeah.. sending thme to the browser is a really good reason to do it.
20:55 an MB of JSON for the frameworks..
20:55 dang!
20:55 rangi ashimema: talk to bgkriegel he has been doing lots of improvements
20:55 ashimema :)
20:56 I have to have somthing to show to the boss by the end of the week.. prototyping still..
20:56 pianohacker yeah, it's a very simple-minded array of hashes for every single tag/subfield, so it could be optimized. I'm going to try gzipping it and see if that helps first though
20:56 ashimema but after that the aim is to refine the code with all these things in mind
20:57 mimify and gzip it.. thats certainly a start.. (and set a really long cache timeout)
20:57 are you loading the whole set of frameworks in one hit.. or loading individual frameworks on the fly when needed?
20:58 pianohacker ashimema: individual frameworks... it only supports the default framework atm, in fact
20:58 ashimema what's driving rancor mate.. i don't remember seeing angular in there?
20:58 damn.. 1MB for one framework.. that's huge!
20:58 never would have guessed they were that large
20:58 pianohacker ashimema: no, it's jQuery and lots of manual monkeying around. Really wish I had angular
20:59 ashimema lol.. I can see why it's taking it's time then mate ;)
20:59 pianohacker yeah...
20:59 ashimema angular is lovely to work with.. has it's oddities.. but the ease with which it allows you to separate concerns is uber awesome.
20:59 pianohacker that plus school/teaching/research/club/reddit
20:59 god yes
21:00 ashimema you using require.js or anything.. or just loaidng the entire stack in one iht?
21:00 pianohacker wait, is bag around?
21:00 *that plus school/teaching/research/club
21:00 ashimema: Definitely require.js, I've separated out as much as I can into modules
21:00 ashimema cool, cool..
21:01 that's the last piece of the puzzle I need to get my had around..
21:01 pianohacker the UI is still one huge chunk though, as separating anything with translatable strings out is a pain with our current setup
21:01 ashimema using require.js with angular
21:01 pianohacker ^ would also be easier with angular
21:01 ashimema so i've heard..
21:01 pianohacker yeah, I whine about that a lot
21:01 ashimema just not tried yet.. not really played with require at all..
21:02 only angular dependency injection.. but that works very differently really.. still loads all at once.
21:02 pianohacker yeah
21:04 ashimema right.. I must go to bed.. got a long drive too early tommorrow morning..
