| 11:37 | oleonard | Hi #koha |
| 11:40 | arnold joined #koha | |
| 11:41 | arnold | Hello #koha! |
| 11:42 | oleonard | Hi arnold |
| 11:43 | CHRIS5 joined #koha | |
| 11:43 | arnold | I need to make sure that the status of each book can only be unique. It should not be both Withdrawn and Lost, for example. |
| 11:43 | Is there any way to enforce this, oleonard ? | |
| 11:45 | oleonard | Not that I know of arnold. Koha isn't designed to work that way. |
| 11:46 | arnold | So if I generate a report of damaged books, it will include books that are withdrawn too? |
| 11:47 | (ie withdrawn and damaged) | |
| 11:47 | oleonard | arnold: If you're talking about reports you can select whatever you want. damaged but not withdrawn, damaged and withdrawn, etc. |
| 11:47 | arnold | I see. |
| 11:47 | oleonard | That's just a matter of composing the right SQL |
| 11:48 | But it doesn't prevent your staff from changing the statuses | |
| 11:48 | meliss joined #koha | |
| 11:49 | arnold | Can I just make it invalid to set a status of Damaged and Withdrawn for the staff using jQuery? |
| 11:51 | oleonard | I'm sure that's possible |
| 11:53 | arnold | I don't know jQuery. First I tried to reset all other statuses if one status is changed. But it did not work. Can you help me with it? I'll post the code... |
| 11:54 | This is what I tried: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17429523/ | |

| 12:12 | NateC joined #koha | |
| 12:13 | arnold | oleonard: Did you test it, it does not work for me! |
| 12:14 | oleonard | arnold: Are you adding it as part of a $(document).ready() block in the intranetuserjs preference? I shouldn't have assumed that. |
| 12:15 | arnold | Yes I am. |
| 12:16 | There is no Authorized Value "0" for any of the fields. oleonard could that be the reason? | |
| 12:17 | oleonard | Maybe so. I thought 0 was the default, but perhaps it is blank in your system and not mine |
| 12:18 | arnold | Let me try "". If it is very difficult, can I at least alert the staff that it is not permitted and not submit it? (validate) |
| 12:21 | oleonard: Nope, the blank did not work either. | |
| 12:21 | oleonard | You're working from catalogue/moredetail.pl right? |
| 12:22 | arnold | yes, http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/[…]temnumber=1#item1 |
| 12:22 | oleonard | Please paste the contents of your intranetuserjs preference |
| 12:23 | arnold | http://paste.ubuntu.com/17430015/ oleonard |
| 12:25 | oleonard | What exactly isn't working arnold? |
| 12:26 | arnold | I am still able to set the status as both "Lost" and "Damaged". |
| 12:27 | oleonard | arnold: The jQuery is working correctly, but it must be more complicated than simply blanking the hidden inputs. I don't know offhand what is going on in the script so I'm not sure what to suggest. |
| 12:28 | arnold | oleonard: Since you know jQuery, can you be kind enough to write a script that will simply alert the user that it is in violation and not submit the unwanted change. |
| 12:28 | oleonard | arnold: Sorry I don't have time to do that |
| 12:29 | arnold | ie, force him to unset "Damaged" and then set "Lost" manually? |
| 12:30 | oleonard: is it very complicated, or do you think someone who has no Javascript experience like me can get it done? | |
| 12:31 | oleonard | arnold: It doesn't hurt to try. If you get stuck then you can seek help then. |
| 12:34 | drojf | every person i have to call today is unavailable. why do telephones exist at all? |
| 12:35 | "lets have a phone call, its much easier than sending an email and waiting for half an hour" | |
| 12:35 | yeah right, only that i wait half an hour to have that phone call :P | |
| 12:35 | oleonard | drojf: When I have to call someone and it turns out they're not available I feel like the universe has given me a precious gift. |
| 12:35 | drojf | hahaha |
| 12:35 | yes i know that feeling | |

| 13:55 | drojf | eythian: crazily expensive server constraints. unless it would be a very bad idea for some reason, a second server is not an option. (i guess it would mean no for the whole project) |
| 14:08 | ashimema | man I have a love hate relationship with UKFederation.. |
| 14:08 | makes settig up new customers who are already part of the federation a doddle | |
| 14:09 | but also means restarting the shibd service (which is required any time you make a config change, or add a new customer) take around 8 minutes (when your lucky) and a very well spec'd server | |
| 14:09 | parsing hundreds of lines of xml and validating thousands of certificates is time consuming it would seem ;) | |

| 15:47 | I'll see if I can s/o that other patch for you as well | |
| 15:49 | oleonard | khall: That'd be great. I'm looking for more opinions about whether it's even a good idea. |
| 15:49 | khall: One question: Why the 'aria-hidden="true"'? | |
| 15:50 | khall | oleonard: that shouldn't be there, I started with a copypasta from the FA website, I forgot to remove that |
| 15:51 | oleonard: yeah, I'm looking at it now. It does make moving a hold a number of places up or down a bit more cumbersome, but it's also more self-explanitory. I'm torn | |
| 15:51 | I'll fix that patch oleonard | |
| 15:52 | oleonard | I think pianohacker mentioned in IRC the idea of using a JS drag and drop reordering thing instead, but I don't think he was volunteering :P |
| 15:52 | khall | yeah, I was thinking ajax would be the real solution |
| 15:53 | ping him about it, if he's not volunteering I may take a crack at it. | |
| 15:53 | I wasn't thinking the full drag and drop, but that really sounds like the way to go | |

| 21:07 | nikki | Hello people! |
| 21:09 | I am trying to import patrons to my new library from a csv file. I tried importing the same data twice. This is what i get at the end of the first import: http://paste.ubuntu.com/17451853/ | |
| 21:10 | So I am guessing that the first attempt to import succeeded. But I don't see any patrons! | |
| 21:12 | never mind my previous question. | |
| 21:12 | I fixed it | |
| 21:13 | Now the problem is that I have imported the sample biblio data from a MARC file. I need to add barcodes to them to make them available. | |
| 21:14 | So after quick googling I decided to export the MARC data as a CSV file, insert the barcode, and then import it back. | |
| 21:14 | But the only problem is that the csv file is empty. I don't know how to select all the items. | |
| 21:15 | I just left all fields blank. What should I be actually be doing ? | |
| 21:18 | kidclamp | Hi nikki |
| 21:18 | nikki | hey |
| 21:18 | kidclamp | when you say the csv is empty, you mean nothing is exported? |
| 21:18 | nikki | yes, 0 bytes |
| 21:18 | so maybe I need to set a csv profile? | |
| 21:19 | kidclamp | and probably the eaisest is to edit the marc file you imported initially and add items record |
| 21:19 | via marcedit | |
| 21:19 | that could be, importing csv is going to be tricker than importing marc afaik | |
| 21:20 | nikki | I see, so is there a way to assign barcodes to all my books? |
| 21:20 | drojf | you can import biblio data as csv? what did i miss? |
| 21:20 | kidclamp | you can convert csv to marc then import that |
| 21:21 | I don't think you can import csv directly | |
| 21:21 | 'trickier than marc' was probably a generous statement :-) | |
| 21:21 | drojf | ok ;) |
| 21:21 | kidclamp | and nikki - do your biblio records have items? |
| 21:22 | i.e. are we talking records without items or items without barcodes? | |
| 21:23 | nikki | records without items. please don't shout at me for not being clear about this before, I just started using koha! |
| 21:23 | kidclamp | hehe, no shouting at all |
| 21:23 | just trying to make sure I am not confused and saying the wrong thing | |
| 21:24 | nikki | alright, so say the right thing ;-) |
| 21:24 | kidclamp | you can either catalog items through koha |
| 21:25 | or add items to the file you used for import and then redo the import | |
| 21:25 | adding items = adding a 952 marc field | |
| 21:25 | with at least $a and $p | |
| 21:26 | more info on koha holdings field here: https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]data_fields_(9xx) | |
| 21:26 | nikki | so how do I add bc to the field in linux? can I use libreoffice? |
| 21:27 | kidclamp | marcedit is the only way I know of off hand to edit marc and add items |
| 21:27 | you 'can' install via mono on linux | |
| 21:27 | nikki | Let me install it, wait a moment |
| 21:27 | kidclamp | or you can run it in a windows vm |
| 21:28 | it doesn't work perfectly | |
| 21:28 | adding the items via mysql trickery is your other option | |
| 21:28 | but after that I am out of ideas | |
| 21:28 | http://marcedit.reeset.net/mar[…]tion-instructions | |
| 21:29 | Karl_H | there are programmatic ways to edit marc as well |
| 21:29 | kidclamp | good point |
| 21:30 | Karl_H | pymarc is a python library, I think perl has a library too |
| 21:31 | marcedit is probably most user friendly though | |
| 21:32 | drojf | you can manipulate marc data with catmandu |
| 21:33 | https://github.com/LibreCat/Catmandu-MARC | |
| 21:33 | nikki | I am almost done installing marcedit. If it fails, I will get it done with pymarc. |
| 21:34 | Karl_H | this is kind of a tangent, but isn't catmandu being used for elasticsearch somehow? |
| 21:38 | drojf | in koha, yes |
| 21:38 | Karl_H | neat, I thought I heard that name somewhere |
| 21:38 | drojf | if you check the link you may find rangi and eythian in the list of contributors ;) |
| 21:39 | nikki | Can you guyz help me use marcedit? Firstly it is asking me to set default programs. |
| 21:40 | which one should I use for assigning values to 952 $a and $p in bulk? | |
| 21:45 | Jow do I use mareditor to det it done, kidclamp_away ? | |
| 21:48 | Karl_H | do you have some way of matching up the barcodes with the marc files? |
| 21:48 | nikki | I dont mind starin from 1 and incrementing |
| 21:48 | Karl_H | delimited text translator should allow you to convert from csv if that's what you've got |
| 21:49 | Joubu joined #koha | |
| 21:49 | nikki | I have a mrc file, and I need to add items. |
| 21:49 | basically how do I assign values to 952 $a and $p in bulk | |
| 21:50 | Karl_H | well first things first, you can use marctools to break the marc file into something that you can more easily edit |
| 21:50 | nikki | okey, so to csv? |
| 21:51 | Karl_H | yeah, convert to csv |
| 21:51 | * eythian | almost wants to write a free software marcedit type thing. Except I'd have to care for it forever. |
| 21:52 | Karl_H | create a new column in like, excel or whatever. Set the header row to 952a if that's the field you want to insert |
| 21:52 | create the barcode values for each of your records | |
| 21:52 | save and then convert back to marc | |
| 21:52 | that's how I'd probably do it | |
| 21:53 | nikki | That;s what I am thinking too, but which tool to use? delimited text translator |
| 21:54 | Karl_H | yeah, delimited text translator |
| 21:55 | either that or marc tools would probably have a MARC>CSV option in there somewhere | |
| 21:56 | eythian | It's extremely hard to make a proper CSV<->MARC converter thing with full fidelity. The formats are too different. |
| 21:57 | Not impossible, mind. Maybe I should try it. | |
| 21:58 | drojf | its easy to do csv to marc in catmandu |
| 21:58 | well, depends on your csv :P | |
| 21:59 | nikki | Karl_H: So what is the output file? The file to which i want to add 952p? |
| 22:00 | Karl_H | output file is the file you're going to save the csv data to |
| 22:00 | nikki, I wish you luck, but I gotta go | |
| 22:00 | have a great weekend everybody | |
| 22:00 | nikki | thanks for everything! |
| 22:02 | eythian | drojf: you can do one way conversions fine, but going back to MARC is hard. |
| 22:02 | drojf | you want to go from marc to csv to marc? |
| 22:02 | why? | |
| 22:02 | eythian | Eg determining what tags should be grouped and which shouldn't |
| 22:03 | So you can export, add barcodes, import | |
| 22:03 | drojf | dont import before you add the barcodes. problem solved :P |
| 22:04 | or import ite data to merge. but in this case, there is marc data available | |
| 22:04 | *item | |
| 22:18 | nikki | I tried something, and it did not seem to work |
| 22:18 | have worked* | |
