00:01 mtompset wnickc: I signed off bug 14246 as well. :)
00:01 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14246 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, xarragon, Signed Off , Add borrowernumber to koha_news
00:01 mtompset Added the koha::schema::results files too, just in case.
00:03 IceCube joined #koha
00:10 wnickc mtompset++
00:24 Francesca joined #koha
00:34 wnickc goodnight!
01:01 IceCube ok if anyone is there I have a few questions about my koha install
01:02 It's a fresh install, just imported the database from an old system, logged into the web interface, the database was upgraded, and now I'm hitting an error page
01:04 * eythian passive-aggressively wonders why no one ever actually says what the error is, which is the one thing that could allow them to be helped :)
01:07 IceCube Can't call method "do" on unblessed reference at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line 793. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Auth.pm line 89. Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 25. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 25.
01:07 eythian my first thing would be to ensure that mysql is running
01:08 IceCube it is
01:08 I can see it when I run top
01:09 eythian try restarting it
01:09 often that error is from koha not being able to talk to it
01:09 IceCube ok, restarted.
01:09 same error
01:09 :(
01:09 eythian hmm
01:10 IceCube config wrong somewhere?
01:10 eythian maybe
01:10 worth checking
01:10 IceCube any suggestions where to look?
01:11 eythian trying running 'sudo koha-update-schema instancename'
01:11 see if it gives you the same error
01:11 IceCube koha-update-schema not found
01:12 wizzyrea koha-upgrade-schema
01:12 (I think)
01:12 IceCube ahh there it is
01:12 eythian oh
01:12 IceCube yep I just found it in /bin
01:12 eythian yes
01:12 /bin?
01:12 not /usr/sbin?
01:13 IceCube DBI connect('dbname=koha_koha;host=loc​alhost;port=3306','koha_koha',...) failed; Access denied for user........
01:13 ok where do I set that
01:13 eythian there you go
01:13 you need to fix that
01:13 it's in koha-conf.xml
01:14 IceCube ok let me go check
01:14 eythian did you copy that across from the old installation?
01:14 because if you did, that was a bad idea
01:14 IceCube the kohaconf? no
01:14 eythian hmm
01:15 IceCube so it's a bunch of random letters
01:15 can I just change that to something and then change it also in mysql
01:16 eythian that's typically what a password is, yes
01:16 I'd just change mysql to match the file
01:16 IceCube I just meant that I didn't set it
01:16 eythian I'm concerned that they don't match though. That's suspicious
01:16 especially if, as you said, it successfully did the schema upgrade.
01:17 IceCube sigh.  I love technology.
01:19 ok that did it
01:19 thanks guys
01:19 you've been a lot of help to me over the past few days
01:21 eythian sweet :)
01:21 for payment, you must go patch two bugs ;)
01:22 IceCube are you sure you want me to try to do that
01:22 eythian we have a review process for a reason :)
01:23 IceCube wisdom
01:23 prudence, actually
01:23 wisdom combined with experience
01:23 eythian yes, and messy code from the past
01:25 pastebot "IceCube" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Fresh install / db upgrade errors" (15 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/120
01:25 IceCube ok I have to run for a few minutes but I'll be back - and now I have some more questions.  Possibly related to the thing I just pasted.
01:25 ttys...
01:26 wizzyrea I feel like for the most part those messages are alright, especially if things are working.
01:26 eythian yeah
01:26 the "Can't create" ones may be a problem
01:27 I kinda think we should capture and ignore any messages that start with "duplicate"
01:27 wizzyrea yeah true
01:27 or mark them differently.
01:27 the other thing
01:27 wahanui i guess the other thing is i want to upgrade the version of koha. how?
01:28 wizzyrea I want to see in database update is printing something before an update that can take a lot of time begins
01:28 and again afterwards
01:28 eythian yes
01:28 wizzyrea i.e. "updating database for bug xxxx - this can take some time" then "Finished updating bug xxxxx"
01:29 I do that for the ones in 3.18 that I do, even though they take very little time.
01:29 there are some in there that can take aaages though and it's nerve wracking when it shouldn't be
01:31 * eythian tries really hard to not have the "library data" section of his talk not turn into too long of a rant.
01:31 wizzyrea oh go on, have your rant.
01:32 eythian I only have 20 minutes and need to actually cover the topic
01:32 wizzyrea oh well, fair enough
01:32 yeah, that's a 20 minute rant in itself.
01:32 eythian yep
01:32 wizzyrea at minimum.
01:49 chrisvella joined #koha
02:00 tcohen joined #koha
02:12 IceCube Ok I'm back
02:12 It looks like the database is... empty?
02:12 tcohen joined #koha
02:12 IceCube when I do a search on the catalog I get no results returned
02:13 There should be about 70,000 books
02:13 eythian IceCube: that symptom is not reflective of that conclusion :)
02:13 check your database first
02:13 select count(*) from biblio;
02:13 most likely you need to rebuild the search index
02:13 IceCube haha obv :)
02:13 ok
02:13 eythian in fact, you definitely need to
02:14 sudo koha-rebuild-zebra --full -v koha
02:14 IceCube what does select count(*) do
02:14 It gave me a result of 1
02:14 eythian did you put in exactly what I said above?
02:14 IceCube yes, with a ;
02:15 eythian that is not what I'd expect
02:15 try:
02:15 IceCube I have not done the rebuild yet though, if that matters
02:15 eythian select * from biblio;
02:15 the rebuild is unrelated
02:15 IceCube error 1046  no database selected
02:15 eythian oh
02:15 how are you accessing your database?
02:16 IceCube I'm doing this in mysql right?
02:16 eythian that's not an answer :)
02:16 IceCube it kind of is haha
02:16 I'm in mysql
02:16 eythian how did you get in to mysql?
02:17 IceCube mysql -u username -p
02:17 eythian that's the hard way
02:17 don't do that
02:17 sudo koha-mysql koha
02:17 IceCube ok
02:18 eythian (the actual probably is probably that you didn't select your database.)
02:18 *problem
02:18 IceCube select count(*) now givs a big number
02:18 eythian good
02:18 kathryn joined #koha
02:18 eythian so your database is not empty
02:18 now do the rebuild
02:18 IceCube yeah I realized that when you told me I was doing it the hard way
02:18 ok I'll do that
02:18 eythian wahanui: what is the saddest thing?
02:18 wahanui the saddest thing is http://i39.tinypic.com/14jz15f.jpg
02:18 eythian heh
02:19 IceCube lol
02:19 how many things does wahanui do
02:19 eythian wahanui is an infobot
02:20 jcamins wahanui: statistics?
02:20 wahanui i guess statistics is larger, so I'm assuming all is well for that.
02:20 eythian so, many things.
02:20 jcamins wahanui: facts?
02:20 wahanui jcamins: bugger all, i dunno
02:20 eythian wahanui: stats
02:20 wahanui Since Tue Oct  6 21:46:26 2015, there have been 336 modifications and 208 questions.  I have been awake for 15 days, 4 hours, 33 minutes, 39 seconds this session, and currently reference 46089 factoids. Addressing is in optional mode.
02:20 jcamins Oh, whatever.
02:20 wahanui and ever, amen.
02:20 IceCube oh that's a lot of factoids
02:20 Is that how many things he responds to or just how many things he comes up with
02:20 jcamins eythian?
02:20 wahanui i guess eythian is Time's Person of the Year for 2006.
02:20 rocio left #koha
02:21 eythian it's true, I was.
02:22 IceCube ok reindexing done...
02:23 eythian IceCube: do a sudo koha-common restart now
02:23 IceCube and a search for the word "book" displays lots of records :)
02:23 eythian oh, then don't bother with the restart
02:23 that sounds good then
02:23 IceCube well it said command not found anyways
02:23 eythian oh
02:24 yes
02:24 I meant sudo service koha-common restart
02:24 but, if search is working, you don't need to
02:24 IceCube ok cool
02:24 yep it seems to be working!
02:25 Wow I'm really happy
02:25 eythian awesomecross
02:25 IceCube This has been a long time coming
02:25 The librarian has been complaining she wants an upgrade for several years
02:25 eythian heh
02:26 now they're going to have to spend a week reading the newer manual and learning all the new things
02:26 IceCube I never wanted to do it because I didn't have the time or experience with linux, mysql, koha, etc.  Then the system had a failure and...
02:26 here we are
02:27 wizzyrea :)
02:27 easy to update now
02:27 too
02:27 sudo apt-get upgrade koha-common
02:27 IceCube wizzy you were saying something about that last tiem
02:27 no more tarballs
02:27 :)
02:27 wizzyrea :D
02:27 IceCube thanks
02:27 wizzyrea packages don't suck. :)
02:27 IceCube hahaha
02:27 thanks all of you very much
02:28 this is a very helpful resource
02:28 and irc is kind of a blast from the past - haven't used it since the 90's really, but it came back immediately
02:28 wizzyrea come back anytime :)
02:28 IceCube oh... I probably will... lol
02:28 eythian there's usually a good crowd in here
02:29 IceCube do you all work on koha or just know a lot about it?
02:29 wizzyrea yeah, we usually say that the sun never sets on #koha :)
02:29 yes.
02:29 :)
02:29 eythian right now I'm writing a talk about it, if that counts
02:29 IceCube that counts as knowing it, I would think
02:29 wizzyrea pft, eythian is the pro-est of the pros.
02:30 IceCube do you get many people in here asking questions?
02:30 glad to have your pro-est help, eythian
02:30 eythian no problem ;)
02:30 yes, it's pretty common
02:30 wizzyrea pretty common yeah
02:32 the mailing lists are good for things that are not time sensitive
02:32 IceCube ok good to know
02:32 hey where does the superlibrarian log in?
02:33 I tried it on the koha-intra site but it says I don't have permission
02:33 eythian that's where they log in
02:33 you can use the database username/password to configure users
02:34 IceCube I'm getting "Error: You do not have permission to access this page."
02:34 yeah I did log in with that and it works but the superlib doesn't for some reason
02:34 eythian are you using the database username/password?
02:34 hmm
02:34 reset the password?
02:34 passwords should be backwards compatible, but...
02:35 IceCube ok let's try resetting it
02:35 seems that passwords don't like us tonight
02:35 eythian also, double check the permissions
02:35 wizzyrea actually, check the permissions
02:35 because you wouldn't have seen that message
02:35 if the password was wrong
02:35 eythian true
02:36 wizzyrea note that you probably just need to untick and tick the superlibrarian box, and save it
02:36 IceCube ahh ok you know what I was spelling her name wrong :S
02:36 wizzyrea haha
02:36 eythian heh
02:36 IceCube don't tell her
02:36 wizzyrea mum's the word.
02:37 IceCube is it possible to link koha to ldap?  I thin I saw this somewhere once
02:37 eythian yes, it is
02:37 IceCube hmmmmm
02:38 * IceCube begins to plan for the future
02:38 wizzyrea ldap?
02:38 wahanui ldap is missing a certain pleasantness of usage.
02:38 wizzyrea hrmph
02:38 that is not what I wanted ;)
02:38 IceCube hahaha
02:38 tcohen joined #koha
02:38 wizzyrea http://perldoc.koha-community.[…]th_with_ldap.html slightly terrible looking, but essentially correct
02:39 IceCube hahahaha ok
02:39 wizzyrea of particular note are the bits you have to chuck into koha-conf.xml
02:39 and how to do the mappings.
02:39 IceCube I'll prob consult a professional on this or if I decide to tinker around I'll make a copy of the VM and use that
02:40 ok good to know
02:40 Actually I should prob learn this because I want to start a school and will prob have to set a lot of this stuff up
02:40 eythian It's not too hard, but you have to make sure the info in your ldap matches the info that koha expects
02:40 IceCube makese sense
02:40 wizzyrea what he said.
02:41 eythian e.g. whatever field you use to provide borrower category must match the values that koha can have for borrower category, etc.
02:41 I've set up more koha-ldap system than I care to think about :)
02:41 IceCube Well that's good to know because that means it must work for a lot of people
02:42 wizzyrea it does
02:42 eythian get your ducks in a row and it can be done in about 10 minutes
02:42 tcohen eythian: can u put your signature on bug 15012 and mark it PASSED QA?
02:42 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=15012 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Signed Off , koha-shell raises " no job control in shell" error
02:42 eythian the last one I did took about 6 months of duck-aligning.
02:42 wizzyrea if your ducks are disorderly... that.
02:42 IceCube hahaha
02:42 ok I'll peruse and see what needs to be done
02:43 this works with AD also, right?
02:43 eythian tcohen: do you want to write my talk? :)
02:43 wizzyrea should do
02:43 eythian yep, AD==LDAP for all intensive porpoises
02:43 IceCube oh yeah there it is in the link you sent me
02:43 right but occasionally you find quirks here and there
02:44 tcohen hehe, I didn't know you were giving a talk about ordering ducks
02:44 eythian tcohen: I'm giving a talk about elasticsearch, catmandu, and koha :)
02:45 tcohen ah, interesting when and where? I always wanted to learn about the three of the
02:45 m
02:45 eythian tcohen: Hobart, next Friday
02:45 be there or be square
02:45 * tcohen will just push the patch, I have you implicit aproval
02:45 eythian tcohen: I'm checking it out right now
02:46 tcohen eythian: will you record it or the organizing people?
02:46 eythian I think it'll be recorded
02:46 wizzyrea http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13216 <runs away giggling>
02:46 huginn 04Bug 13216: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, mtj, Needs Signoff , fix koha-shell to work with git/dev installs
02:47 eythian wizzyrea: I'd _really_ like a global solution for that issue
02:47 Francesca joined #koha
02:47 wizzyrea true, that would be nice
02:47 eythian e.g. setting the perl5lib should be in a library
02:47 hmm
02:47 wizzyrea I just fixed mine locally like that, thought I'd submit it
02:47 eythian that has recursion issues
02:48 but still, having it somewhere central so it applies to everything would be idea
02:48 l
02:48 wizzyrea well hm
02:48 tcohen eythian, we already have that,
02:49 eythian do we?
02:49 tcohen remember /etc/default/koha-common?
02:49 eythian oh
02:49 yes
02:49 that
02:49 use that
02:49 tcohen we actually use that
02:49 wizzyrea mm but I don't want to do that because I want to change it at my whim
02:49 eythian ah, I see
02:49 there's no reason it can't do both
02:49 well actually
02:49 it also needs to be on a per-instance basis
02:50 wizzyrea ok that I could get behind.
02:50 * eythian chooses not to think about that further for now
02:50 wizzyrea teehee
02:50 tcohen wizzyrea: I wrote a patch for kohadevbox:ansible (didn't push it yet) that puts a custom .bashrc on the instance user, so it is picked by the shell
02:50 wizzyrea obvs lots of ways to solve that one :)
02:51 tcohen we leave alone all people's deployment
02:51 and have our own set of tools for that scenarios
02:51 (dev, testing ,etc)
02:53 hm
02:54 eythian tcohen: bug 15012 signed off, marked passed qa. All yours now :)
02:54 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=15012 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Passed QA , koha-shell raises " no job control in shell" error
02:54 tcohen eythian: have you noticed that if we ran one plack serverfor all instances, then mpm-itk doesn't make any sense?
02:54 eythian tcohen: yes
02:54 tcohen cool, thanks eythian!
02:55 I can now go to bed :-P
02:55 eythian I figure we'll burn that bridge when we get to it
02:55 wizzyrea per instance settings so you didn't have to specify would be the best ever.
02:55 * Francesca waves
02:56 wizzyrea but the way I did it is a very close 2nd to that, it works the way I do anyway.
02:56 eythian per-instance would mean our gitified staging servers make more sense
02:56 later tcohen
02:57 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu5CA59MSlU <-- tcohen, if you're really keen, here's my one from last year
02:58 it'll probably help you if you're having trouble sleeping

03:15 mtompset Have a great day (24 hour period), #koha wizzyrea Francesca eythian
03:16 irma how good is the search and how refined are the search filters ... I don't know how satisfied users are and also I don't know the relationship with the library management system once a discovery layer has been installed.
03:16 So much to know ...
03:30 wizzyrea irma you mean like EBSCO or?

06:18 * eythian is making a slide on weird cases in searching, uses cait as an example
06:18 cait i am a weird case?
06:18 ....
06:18 eythian specifically, the author sorting behaviour you brought up
06:18 cait i still tihnk the browse is acting strange too
06:19 eythian possibly
06:19 I haven't had a chance to look at it recently
06:20 cait when is your talk? :)
06:20 eythian next week friday
06:22 cait wow
06:22 and making the slides now
06:23 eythian I go there on Monday, and I will be having a busy weekend

07:51 drojf joined #koha
07:51 drojf hi #koha
08:38 looks like opac search also searches itemnotes_nonpublic? i get hits for things that are only in there. is it supposed to be like that?
08:39 Joubu certainly not
08:40 drojf the info is not shown then, but it should not be searchable anyway
08:40 Joubu drojf: it's certainly because it's indexed by zebra
08:41 drojf hmm maybe it's leftovers from the last import. i'll try a full reindex
08:41 Joubu drojf: the default mapping is 952x, and does not seem to be indexed
08:42 drojf i expected bulkmarkimport -d to do that, but maybe it doesn't. the info was in there before
08:47 i can still find it Oo
08:58 Joubu: it does get the info from there. i deleted it in one record, reindexed, and that record is no longer found. the others still are
09:00 Joubu drojf:  is it mapped with 952x?

10:09 * cait waves
10:14 waves at khall
10:14 cait did you see, i had some problems with the schema on the rebased patches (fine max is replacement price)
10:14 khall hi!
10:15 I'll check on that
10:15 cait tcohen explained it - you cannnot merge the changes
10:15 so easiest is probably to redo and put on a separate patch
10:16 and then tcohen will fix
10:16 but the discussion is in last nights irc log
10:17 Joubu cait, khall: I am on bug 11250, and I am not sure to know what could be done to make things moving
10:17 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=11250 major, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Signed Off , "too many holds" message appears inappropriately
10:17 khall cait: will do. Those warnings during the unit test run are not a problem. I was concerned about those too but other tests have the same warnings
10:17 cait ok - so just splitting it then maybe
10:18 khall cait: I'll do that right now
10:18 cait Joubu: yeah. hm. I just feel torn about it really - I feel like we are losing information the way we display only one error at a time... but i am not strongly set against it. Ultimately i'd like the too_many to just be more clear? or just to deal with that one differently than the rest?
10:20 Joubu cait: maybe :)
10:20 cait like as Mark I think suggested - if no holds are allowed the message shoudl be different than if you just have too many ... things like that
10:20 khall which would require a lot of rewriting of the code, quite a lot
10:21 cait i know
10:21 so if you feel thsi works... let's try it
10:21 changing it back wouldn#t be huge either
10:21 khall cait: yes please! agreed.
10:21 Joubu yes, that's what I was trying to say. Actually you try to fix with a 10 lines TT patch a 50 lines pm patches :)
10:21 cait but if someone hates it.. you write a new patch? heh
10:21 Joubu obviously it cannot work
10:23 khall I'm also continuously working on the holds system, once we've got the ability to determine each status separately and distinctly, re-updating the messages will be simple.
10:23 but this is a good fix for now
10:24 Joubu khall: I am just wondering if the elsif blocks could be rewritten like : if ( cond1 or cond2 or cond3 ) { loop on conditions to display the errors# So we could have more than 1 errors } elsif maxreserves { display the generic message }
10:24 cait i'd like that
10:26 khall joubu: yes, that would work. Before we go further than that, which messages do you believe we will see at the same time?
10:26 cait age restriction and none available
10:26 could happen
10:27 i think theoretically... you could just have all but the Too_many one
10:27 in one block
10:27 Joubu The idea is mainly to prepare for the next one (not developed yet) which will just follow the existing pattern
10:27 khall cait: there's my arguement for simplicity. If the hold is age restricted, none_available is meaningless
10:28 because that patron will never be able to place a hold on that record
10:28 cait i think then Joubu is right... future thing
10:28 khall ok, I'll make those changes
10:29 cait compromise - and a quick one
10:29 khall : )
10:29 cait at leat not hard to change
10:29 i will try to test tonight
10:29 just have a ... ton of stuff on my desk :(
10:29 khall excellent@!
10:29 cait khall: you saw feature slush deadline?
10:29 khall yes
10:34 cait khall: everytime... it's a little scary. to me at least :)
10:34 khall lol, yes, I can totally understand that ; )
10:38 cait khall: could you maybe take a look at bug 8436? i did a kind of more extensive follow-up (not sure if i shoudl regret it...) so now i feel i should not pass qa
10:38 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8436 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, julian.maurice, Signed Off , Add branch limit on checkexpiration.pl
10:38 cait but it's not a big patch - was hoping jajm would take a look
10:38 khall will do cait!
10:38 cait hm my second patch could also move somewhere else if necessary
10:39 i kind of gave ni to temptation to fix a few things and not sure now about it :)
10:40 lunch time!
10:44 khall @later tell cait t/db_dependent/Circulation/TooMany.t has those same warnings
10:44 huginn khall: The operation succeeded.
10:44 khall @later tell cait bug 9129 is all fixed up!
10:44 huginn khall: The operation succeeded.
10:46 Joubu khall: I think I agree with you now, sorry a bit slow :)
10:46 khall Joubu:on 11250?
10:46 Joubu yes
10:47 khall excellent!
10:47 would you mind passing qa since cait is at lunch?

15:37 drojf i was wondering… can i run zebra on an external server? like mysql?
15:39 cait i think yes... but never tried
15:39 pianohacker drojf: yes, but you'll need to duplicate your koha config on that server
15:40 drojf pianohacker: do you know from experience?
15:42 mario joined #koha
15:43 pianohacker drojf: we don't have it in production but it's something we're testing
15:45 drojf so you need a duplicate installation of koha? how do you tell the one koha to look at the other zebra?
15:46 if you got some notes on that, i'd be curious to take a look :)
15:47 pianohacker drojf: I think all you have to do is change the biblioserver config near the top of koha-conf.xml on the first machine
15:48 drojf ah yes makes sense. i was scrolling through the file but somehow missed the socket part

18:33 wnickc does anyone know, is there a page like this, but going the other way?  So that you have the index followed by the fields it searches?

18:44 cait wnickc: hm i don't think so
18:44 it's also this way around in the config files
18:44 wnickc hmm..not doing that today, but tucking the idea away :-)
18:45 cait :)
18:49 pianohacker brendan's mentioned mutterings of the elasticsearch indexes being configurable from inside the staff client, which could support things like that
18:50 cait also maybe a structure that you can query... or at least parse better
18:50 but hven't looked really at it yet :(
18:51 pianohacker yaml is what the mutterings are saying
18:51 cait yep i heard muttering abou t that as wlel :)
18:51 magnuse wnickc: once upon a time i made a script for exploring indexes: https://github.com/Libriotech/[…]lob/master/rel.pl no idea if it still works
18:52 pianohacker but the mutterings say a lot of things, like "Rewrite the entire admin side in Angular!" and "Do we really want to deal with the madness of authority control?", so don't trust them too much
18:52 magnuse it will not work with the dom/xml-based config
18:52 wnickc thanks magnuse++
18:53 magnuse ah, the mutterings...
19:00 misilot pianohacker: the angular idea would be neat, as it would most likely mean the REST API is feature complete for almost everything
19:00 pianohacker it's one of those beautiful ideas that would be a very large amount of work :)
19:03 also, am I crazy, or is this a puff piece about what boils down to publicly accessible SQL reports? http://journal.code4lib.org/articles/10924
19:05 misilot so how much does the feature cost?
19:08 pianohacker if you have to ask...
19:09 misilot :) I couldn't figure out if it was included or not with the article

20:04 barton heykoha, I'm trying to use C4::Items::DelItemCheck in a command line script, and I'm getting the following warning: C4::Context->userenv not defined! at /foo/bar/baz/kohaclone/C4/Items.pm line 2336. Are there any guidelines for setting C4::Context->userenv within a command line script?
20:06 cait hm sorry, don't know
20:06 maybe take a look at some of the nwer scripts?
20:07 drojf barton: the easiest would be to use koha-shell
20:07 pianohacker my argument is that the check in question is only triggered if C4::Context->IsSuperLibrarian() returns false
20:08 and that should return true in a command line setting where you have infinite control :)
20:08 barton drojf: the script in question is going to be called in a cron job; I would rather not use koha-shell.
20:09 cait bgkriegel++ # translation manager continuing

20:23 wizzyrea yeah :(
20:23 cdickinson neither F5 nor hitting "Reload" specifically works?
20:23 ugh
20:23 wizzyrea no :(
20:23 barton wizzyrea: if you're just testing, you can a) use private browsing or b) use something like chrome developer tools
20:24 wizzyrea yep, I know.
20:25 I've done that, but I wanted to make sure the behaviour I was seeing wasn't the actual behaviour, I wanted to make sure it was just me before showing it to the client.
20:25 being responsible and stuff.
20:25 barton I would like to see us keep our javascript in versioned files, but i know that would be a *lot* of work.
20:26 wizzyrea nah, it wasn't koha
20:26 barton ah...

20:28 wizzyrea kek.
20:28 cait heh
20:28 drojf good night #koha
20:39 barton pianohacker: C4::Context->IsSuperLibrarian calls C4::Context->userenv ...
20:40 I'm inclined to say that if you're running from the command line,  C4::Context->IsSuperLibrarian *should* return true, but anyway...
20:45 pianohacker I very much agree

20:49 wnickc I wish I could just click on a column in a report and have it copied ot the clipboard directly, just saying if anyone is bored
20:49 wizzyrea you can get pretty close to that if you use libreoffice.
20:49 because it does sensible things with copied table data.
20:50 when you paste it.
20:50 pianohacker can't you just download the report as an .ods?
20:50 ibeardslee wizzyrea: certainly does that in linux with the middle click paste buffer
20:51 wnickc wizzyrea:yeah, just trying to skip the downloading part
20:51 wizzyrea yeah, that's what I'm talking about ;)
20:52 wnickc ah I see what you mean now
20:52 wizzyrea not exactly what you're talking about, but no downloading.
20:52 alternatively you could make your report only output the column you want.
20:52 wnickc but I just want to copy itemnumebrs or barcodes from a report with a bunch of columns and drop them into the batch modification tool or something
20:52 persnickety
20:52 wizzyrea or make another report that does that.
20:53 * wnickc is being persnickety
20:53 wizzyrea you're not married to having every column showing with the Koha report module :P
20:54 wnickc true, I just want it all!
20:54 mario joined #koha
20:54 wizzyrea what I would probably do
20:54 or try, at least
20:54 is put the link to the one column report in the description of the comprehensive report.
20:55 mveron good night / daytime #koha
20:55 wnickc ooh, smart
20:55 wizzyrea mind you I haven't tried it.
20:55 but I would try it, if I had a reason to. :P
20:56 wnickc the thorn is that for batch item mod by itemnumber I have to save into a file anyways.  Though fixing that is within my ken
20:56 wizzyrea do you? I thought they fixed that so you clicked a radio button to choose between them
20:56 I might have imagined that.
20:56 wnickc not in 3.18
20:56 :)
20:57 I will look at bug 14739 for 3.18 if I find time btw
20:57 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14739 major, P3, ---, nick, Pushed to Master , Add several patrons to a new batch will create a new batch per patron added
20:57 wizzyrea oh that would be good
20:58 wnickc++
20:58 hm, no, I imagined that
20:58 wnickc hehe, no promises on when that will happen but it weighs on my mind
20:58 wizzyrea but why wouldn't you just use barcodes?
20:58 if you want to copy/paste?
20:58 what benefit to itemnumber?
20:59 unless you're modifying things that don't have barcodes?
21:00 wnickc exactly
21:01 * barton wants the option of iteative copy / paste.
21:01 barton not necessarilty in koha ... just in general.
21:01 wnickc wizzyrea++ you can embed links into report descriptions, thanks!
21:01 wizzyrea \o/

22:57 cait @later tell khall 11431 looks promising - can you please take a look at my last comment?
22:57 huginn cait: The operation succeeded.
22:58 cbrannon Anyone here got solid experience with SIP?  I am working on a major upgrade to Eric Melton's self check, and have question.
22:59 cait nothing super solid.. but we have libraries using it
22:59 what's the question?
22:59 wahanui the question is "What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything?"
22:59 cbrannon 42
23:01 The question is, is there a way to check through sip if an item is renewable without acually trying to renew.  I can't see anything in the item information, nor does the patron info show this information.  So far, I can only find this info if I actually try to renew the item.
23:03 pianohacker cbrannon: :/ khall probably has that right at the top of his brain, but he headed out at 3 EDT
23:04 cbrannon Hmmm....I'll have to pick that brain when he is around.  Okay.  Thanks.
23:05 FYI, in case anyone is interested, I rewrote the renewal logic in Eric's self check, and also figured out how to preload the checkout screen with items already checked out.  I also updated some of the on screen messages for sip responses.  It's getting quite an overhaul here.

23:09 huginn 04Bug 11559: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jweaver, Signed Off , Professional cataloger's interface
23:09 pianohacker cbrannon: is it on github?
23:10 marc8--
23:10 cait cbrannon: not sure if that is covered by the standard
23:11 cbrannon No.  Something I am currently working on.  Will probably distribute it in the same location the original is currently at (Google Code).
23:11 pianohacker cbrannon: I don't think you can :/ google code is read only now
23:11 cait oh - thoguht that was dead
23:12 pianohacker: keep it simple fo rnow i'd say
23:12 cbrannon Is it?  Hmmm.  I'll have to figure out what to do when I am done.
23:12 cait warning
23:12 pianohacker kk
23:12 cait well not sure how hard the other solution would be :)
23:12 but not breaking it right now would be good
23:12 pianohacker MARC-8 is _madness_
23:12 so much madness
23:12 cait and we don't have a routine already for converting?
23:12 pianohacker it's the worst parts of three different character encodings filtered through the bureaucracy of LOC
23:13 cait: not in javascript...
23:13 cait ah
23:13 i need to sleep
23:14 night all
23:14 wahanui goodnight cait. You'll be back.
23:14 pianohacker good night :)
23:15 good time for me to head out too

23:53 eythian wahanui: XML::Simple is the most complex XML parser available.
23:53 wahanui OK, eythian.
