| 06:57 | marcelr | o/ |
| 06:57 | Joubu around? | |
| 06:58 | Joubu | yes |
| 06:58 | marcelr | hi; about 29523 |
| 06:58 | we are actually doing fields and strings but not embeds | |
| 06:58 | ashimema | really |
| 06:58 | marcelr | so this report does not really cover its title |
| 06:58 | i like to pass a foundation but have my doubts | |
| 06:58 | ashimema | embeds are within a loop.. that's the whole idea of the patch |
| 06:59 | marcelr | yeah but the embed loop is under your change |
| 06:59 | i asked Joubu now since I didnt see you yet :) | |
| 06:59 | ashimema | I just got to the keyboard |
| 06:59 | I can probably write a test to prove it | |
| 07:00 | marcelr | i tested on the api |
| 07:00 | ashimema | though I'm currently writing tests for another persons patch to get it over the qa finish line |
| 07:00 | marcelr | i did biblios/1/checkouts with embed patron |
| 07:00 | i get the patron for a user that should not see them | |
| 07:00 | he gets a 403 on /patrons | |
| 07:01 | ashimema | do you get all the fields in that patron though? |
| 07:01 | marcelr | yes |
| 07:01 | ashimema | ack, |
| 07:01 | marcelr | we need to change the embed loop too |
| 07:01 | which is under your code | |
| 07:01 | ashimema | I tested this on Joubu's branch |
| 07:01 | cait1 joined #koha | |
| 07:02 | marcelr | i am a bit hesitant do this on a qa follow-up ? |
| 07:03 | ashimema | I'll take another look now |
| 07:03 | that's the entire idea of the patchset | |
| 07:03 | marcelr | look at calls to $self->_handle_to_api_child |
| 07:03 | in to_api | |
| 07:04 | somewhere there we need to act | |
| 07:05 | Joubu | please submit a patch if you have one! |
| 07:05 | cait2 joined #koha | |
| 07:07 | marcelr | lol |
| 07:08 | added a comment | |
| 07:08 | ashimema | but _handle_to_api_child just calls to_api internally and passes the params |
| 07:08 | Joubu | @later tell fridolin can you confirm you saw my comment on 34959? You should not release 34959 and 35024 this month |
| 07:08 | huginn | Joubu: The operation succeeded. |
| 07:09 | marcelr | well, in this loop we are handling embeds |
| 07:09 | Joubu | @later tell fridolin please read the email I sent to the release team ("RMaints") about that last ween |
| 07:09 | huginn | Joubu: The operation succeeded. |
| 07:09 | Joubu | koha communication... |
| 07:09 | fridolin joined #koha | |
| 07:09 | Joubu | fridolin: ? |
| 07:11 | marcelr: weird, the use case you tried is very similar to what I am doing on 33568 | |
| 07:12 | ashimema | doh.. I squashed my docs patch into the tests patch.. that wasn't deliberate |
| 07:12 | marcelr | np |
| 07:12 | i am going to test it again to confirm | |
| 07:13 | just curious if the cache tricks me | |
| 07:13 | plack | |
| 07:14 | good news ashimema i am scaring you for nothing | |
| 07:14 | the recursion works, it must have been plack | |
| 07:15 | ashimema | phew |
| 07:15 | Joubu | cait2: around? |
| 07:15 | ashimema | I had no idea where to start with fixing that 😧 |
| 07:15 | glad it works | |
| 07:15 | Joubu | or cait1 maybe? |
| 07:15 | marcelr | i will remove your docs to a separate patch and pqa this morning |
| 07:15 | just leave it alone now | |
| 07:15 | ashimema | ok |
| 07:16 | Joubu | \o/ |
| 07:16 | marcelr | will put a few notes for later on it (i think we should not use unredact with public) |
| 07:16 | ashimema | did you want me to add a test for the embed.. it's not a bad idea.. right now your right.. we only test the top level.. it would be a good idea to have the recursion tested |
| 07:16 | Joubu | thx marcelr! |
| 07:16 | ashimema | thanks 🙂 |
| 07:16 | cait2 | good morning #koha |
| 07:16 | marcelr | hi cait2 |
| 07:17 | cait2 | @later tell fridolin don' forget "Needs documenting" :) |
| 07:17 | huginn | cait2: The operation succeeded. |
| 07:19 | aw-bib[m] | good morning :) could someone give me a pointer how koha stores user permissions? I thought that they go to the user_permissions table, but  select * from user_permissoins; yields Empty set and now I am a bit confused. (and there is indeed not perl-function to set them?) |
| 07:20 | cait2 | it#s a bit complicated (as you probably expected) |
| 07:20 | there is borrowers.flags | |
| 07:20 | ashimema | it's confusing 😜 |
| 07:20 | cait2 | that has a... bitmask? with the top level permissions |
| 07:20 | and than there is user_permissions for the sub_permissions | |
| 07:20 | ashimema | many a seasoned koha dev doesn't fully understand them |
| 07:20 | cait2 | so if you just check "acquisitions" that shoudl only create a change in borrowers.flags |
| 07:21 | there are open bugs to revamp the system | |
| 07:21 | *Â ashimema | would just love to do away with the whole bitmasking stuff.. it's confusing as |
| 07:21 | Joubu | it's base 2, not very complicated for whoever do a bit of programming ;) |
| 07:21 | ashimema | elegant for when it was written.. but times have changed |
| 07:22 | cait2 | it was interesting to figure out when I last did :) |
| 07:22 | ashimema | yeah, whilst I agree there Joubu.. many people just don't learn that stuff in coding courses now |
| 07:23 | and in general.. the world has moved to clearer string based stuff in modern systems.. | |
| 07:23 | having said that chmod and friends are still a thing | |
| 07:23 | lol | |
| 07:23 | I should really finish writing these tests | |
| 07:25 | cait2 | I believe the mix we have is the confusing bit |
| 07:25 | if we only had the bit mask or only the user_permissions... but both together is strange | |
| 07:26 | aw-bib[m] | cait2: / Joubu / ashimema thanks. so I need to check borrowers.flags if I don't have sub-permissions and only if I set sub-permissions we live in user_permissions. ok, then I think I can find my way through. and there is _no_ perl-function that I pass the mask to, I have to go SQL, right? |
| 07:29 | marcelr | lets make flags a bit more difficult :) |
| 07:29 | with primes etc to cover the subperms or so | |
| 07:29 | cait2 | marcelr: you are a mean person at times :) |
| 07:29 | krimsonkharne[m] | hey #koha |
| 07:29 | ashimema | lol |
| 07:29 | cait2 | aw-bib[m]: i never looked at how Koha does set them... but it has to somewhere I guess :) |
| 08:31 | Joubu | aw-bib[m]: it's a bit shift, base 2. Look at the userflags table |
| 08:32 | aw-bib[m]: the "bit" is the value of the shift | |
| 08:32 | aw-bib[m] | thanks :) I'll dive into this :) |
| 08:32 | Joubu | if you have (2, catalogue) and (11, acquisition) set for a given patron, borrowers.flags will be 2^2+2^11 |
| 08:33 | =100000000100 | |
| 08:33 | if I counted correctly | |
| 09:38 | fatimah26[m] joined #koha | |
| 09:50 | aude_c[m] | Joubu++ for work on Koha manual and translations |
| 09:51 | fatimah26[m] | Hi, does anyone here used the advance editor in cataloging module? |
| 09:55 | aude_c[m] | I have shown it but never actually used it to catalogue 😅 |
| 09:55 | cait | Joubu++ indeed! |
| 10:09 | khall joined #koha | |
| 10:22 | oleonard | o/ |
| 10:54 | Anyone awake who could have a look at this for me? https://bugs.koha-community.or[…].cgi?id=34869#c12 | |
| 10:54 | huginn | 04Bug 34869: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Failed QA , Convert OPACResultsSidebar system preference to HTML customization |
| 10:55 | oleonard | Need some smart person advice so I can get a whole pile of patches moving |
| 10:56 | cait | what do we make of noone rpelying to you yet? :) |
| 10:57 | Joubu | oleonard: it does not apply, is it about bug-34869-move-opacresultsside​bar-to-additional-contents.pl ? |
| 10:57 | + Â Â Â Â Â Â foreach my $lang ('default') { | |
| 10:57 | you could remove the loop, and replace $lang with 'default' in the INSERT | |
| 11:08 | paulderscheid[m] | Hi #koha, is there any way I can pass an additional -f in the ktd wrapper? |
| 11:11 | Ah got it I guess | |
| 11:11 | COMPOSE_OPTIONS="<ADDITTION>" | |
| 11:14 | Or not :D | |
| 11:16 | krimsonkharne[m] | maybe a typo? |
| 11:16 | "ADDITION" instead of "ADDITTION"? | |
| 11:17 | paulderscheid[m] | Nah, that's just a mistyped placeholder :D |
| 11:18 | krimsonkharne[m] | oh well :D |
| 11:34 | oleonard | paulderscheid[m]: What is the COMPOSE_OPTIONS thing supposed to allow? |
| 11:45 | paulderscheid[m] | The COMPOSE_OPTIONS is a string in the ktd script where the included files, e.g. docker-compose-light.yml, docker-compose.plugin.yml and so on reside, based on the flags you pass a different result is used for the executed docker compose command. |
| 11:47 | Ha thanks for the question oleonard! Of course my approach can't work, because COMPOSE_OPTIONS is explicitly set, overriding anything I set on the shell :D | |
| 11:47 | oleonard | Always good for my ignorance to be helpful XD |
| 11:47 | paulderscheid[m] | Haha :D |

| 12:46 | magnuse | it should be possible to have html in ODUE notices, right? overdue_notices.pl seems to say "The following terms were not matched and replaced" and then list all the html tags, e.g. div class="adress_odue" |
| 12:47 | krimsonkharne[m] | @magnuse: is the "HTML message" check mark set in the ODUE notices? |
| 12:47 | huginn | krimsonkharne[m]: I suck |
| 12:48 | krimsonkharne[m] | happened to me once :) |
| 12:48 | magnuse | krimsonkharne[m]: yes, sadly |
| 12:48 | krimsonkharne[m] | ah |
| 12:48 | then I don't have any useful tips | |

| 13:08 | ashimema | morning emlam |
| 13:08 | I left you a QA to complete ;O | |
| 13:08 | 😜 | |
| 13:10 | emlam | Morning ashimema! I'm working on it right now :) |
| 13:11 | thanks for signing off btw | |
| 13:22 | ashimema | awesome |
| 13:22 | no worries | |
| 13:22 | I was mid QAing it when I spotted it wasn't actually signed off 🙂 | |
| 13:22 | it's a nice piece of work.. some good solid code tidying in there | |
| 13:22 | along with a good feature improvement | |
| 13:25 | emlam | yeah, I'm really excited for it too :) |
| 13:27 | cait | krimsonkharne[m]: did you see my pm yesterday? |
| 13:27 | magnuse: I am pretty sure we have HTML notices - what doesn#t work? | |
| 13:28 | do you maybe have a doubled up << Â or >> somewhere that throes it off? | |
| 13:28 | magnuse | cait: i think i was just fooled by bug 35163 |
| 13:28 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=35163 minor, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , overdue_notices.pl wrongly reports "terms were not matched and replaced" |
| 13:28 | ashimema | Joubu around still? |
| 13:29 | cait | oh |
| 13:29 | we probably never run it with verbose :) | |
| 13:29 | magnuse | cait: yeah |
| 13:29 | ashimema | where are we at with the datatables update.. I've lost track a bit again |
| 13:35 | Joubu | ashimema: more or less |
| 13:35 | ashimema: it's ready for testing | |
| 13:35 | (more or less around) | |
| 13:35 | ashimema | okies |
| 13:35 | I can take another look shortly | |
| 13:35 | just reading bug 31074 again now | |
| 13:35 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=31074 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, olivier.hubert, Failed QA , Cached plugin code is used in Koha even after changes to plugin (install/upgrade/uninstall) |
| 13:36 | ashimema | I'd love to see that resolved |
| 13:39 | Joubu | Remove the installation of plugins from the UI and it's resolved ;) |
| 13:40 | krimsonkharne[m] | psd |
| 13:41 | darn this keyboard | |
| 13:41 | cait: yeah, I saw it, replied already :) | |
| 13:50 | caroline | does the koha ill module integrate ncip? |
| 13:51 | we've had like 3 clients ask us in the last week, I think the national library is looking to change their ill and are asking libraries about ncip | |
| 13:58 | oleonard | People have been asking about Koha and NCIP for (at least) 20 years |
| 14:05 | cait | oh, didn't see your reply then! |
| 14:05 | not using element, so I am not receiving old messages | |
| 14:06 | caroline: i think you'd integrate the NCIP in the backend | |
| 14:06 | the ILL module itself doesn't implement a specific API or such, as every country's are so different | |
| 14:06 | magnuse: does the backend for Norwegian ILL implement something NCIP? | |
| 14:07 | krimsonkharne[m] | ah.. I'll send it again |
| 14:07 | caroline | there's nothing under here https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]i/ILL_Module#NCIP, but the page seems to be out of date |
| 14:08 | _lukeg joined #koha | |
| 14:09 | _lukeg | Morning Koha! |
| 14:09 | caroline | hi _lukeg! |
| 14:09 | cait | caroline: I was thinking of this here: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ILL_backends |
| 14:09 | NNCIPP - Norwegian ILL, based on NCIP (in development) | |
| 14:22 | ashimema | rapido uses ncip behind the scenes |
| 14:22 | and that's a backend we're about to develop | |
| 14:23 | koha's core doesn't do protocols at all really.. it's the backends that handle everything | |
| 14:28 | caroline | thanks ashimema! It's the conclusion I've come to. When they change, if the libraries are willing to pay, we'll develop a backend |
| 14:29 | ashimema | beware there's a lot going on in ILL at the minute |
| 14:29 | including considerations around NCIP and ISO | |
| 14:42 | there's actually a chat about it on Monday if your keen to be involved caroline? | |
| 14:42 | or one of your devs | |
| 14:42 | might be rather technical though | |
| 14:42 | caroline | What time? I could attend but we are not close to starting to work on it |
| 14:48 | ashimema | my point is.. rather than us all working on it independently and against each other.. we should try to work together sharing the load/funding |
| 14:49 | it's 11am UK time | |
| 14:49 | oleonard | That doesn't sound right :D |
| 14:49 | caroline | ooh, that's like 7am I think... I'll talk about it with blou |
| 14:50 | cait | just keep it flexible... some of us don't use any NCIP... |
| 14:50 | :) | |
| 14:50 | oleonard | Oh I thought you were saying what time it is *now* XD |
| 14:50 | ashimema | I added you an invite caroline.. just so you can definitely get the timezone stuff right as I get confused easily with timezones 😉 |
| 14:50 | caroline | thanks ashimema! |
| 14:50 | ashimema | correct cait |
| 14:50 | we will keep it in the backend for protocols | |
| 14:51 | but ILL does need a whole host of under the hood improvements were going to talk about | |
| 14:51 | to help get things moving | |
| 14:51 | oleonard | Speaking of ILL... how do we feel about checking for an HTML customization instead of a preference to enable a feature? |
| 14:51 | I'm looking at ILLModuleCopyrightClearance right now | |
| 14:52 | tcohen[m] | +1 |
| 14:52 | we will finally be able to translate it | |
| 14:53 | ashimema | Pedro Amorim: Â ^ |
| 14:53 | tcohen[m] | I think we should move it to the HTML contents, but keep an ON/OFF switch |
| 14:53 | ashimema | he's done lots in that area lately |
| 14:53 | I'd love to move more to those contents blocks | |
| 14:53 | oleonard | ashimema: So create an ON/OFF preference (there isn't one) |
| 14:53 | tcohen[m] | even though I feel like each backend should handle the need for the step, honestly |
| 14:54 | ashimema | but Ill is a particular complex area in my head at the minute 😜 |
| 14:54 | pass | |
| 14:54 | Joubu | or.. we make the syspref's contents translatable... |
| 14:54 | moving the HTML custom is just a workaround here | |
| 14:55 | tcohen[m] | I will insist that, as with CirculateILL which is all or nothing, those things should all be handled at the backend level |
| 14:55 | ashimema | it's the DisclaimerByType that Pedro did lots on |
| 14:55 | but it's closely tied | |
| 14:55 | PedroAmorim[m] | o/ |
| 14:55 | tcohen[m] | \o |
| 14:56 | Now you need to say something really smart and clever, Pedro, all eyes on you | |
| 14:56 | nno pressure | |
| 14:56 | ashimema | lol |
| 14:56 | tcohen[m] | :-P |
| 14:57 | PedroAmorim[m] | I'm too busy finishing tests for 34587 so that you can push, no brain space for anything clever atm |
| 14:57 | cait | I think the step might appear outside of the backends? but not sure (disclaimer that is) |
| 14:57 | ashimema | I'm still baffled that we seem to be the only country where having multiple backends installed for ILL is a thing |
| 14:57 | cait | you are unique! :) |
| 14:57 | ashimema | disclaimer and copyright both appear outside backends |
| 14:58 | tcohen[m] | if we put Koha2Koha in the core |
| 14:58 | everyone using country-specific ILL would have two | |
| 14:58 | doesn't each ILL system have it's own usage terms and conditions? | |
| 14:58 | oleonard | Is there any practical reason we haven't put Koha2Koha in core? |
| 14:59 | PedroAmorim[m] | whats wrong about ILLModuleCopyrightClearance and ILLModuleDisclaimerByType? =D |
| 14:59 | tcohen[m] | lack of time |
| 14:59 | oleonard: I planned to spend time on that this cycle, but here we are | |
| 14:59 | ashimema | I don't entirely agree with koha2koha in core.. |
| 14:59 | oleonard | PedroAmorim[m]: I'm looking at how to convert ILLModuleCopyrightClearance to an HTML customization |
| 14:59 | PedroAmorim[m] | other than the fact that everything should be a plugin hook and plugins handle the ILL workflow stages on their own ofc )D |
| 14:59 | caroline | at least freeform in the core no? |
| 15:00 | tcohen[m] | yeah |
| 15:00 | ashimema | ish |
| 15:00 | PedroAmorim[m] | oleonard: why? |
| 15:00 | bag joined #koha | |
| 15:00 | ashimema | this is all stuff we're wanting to discuss on Monday |
| 15:00 | cait | i think it should also be able to turn it off in core |
| 15:00 | ashimema | translation pedro |
| 15:00 | oleonard | PedroAmorim[m]: Customization by language and library |
| 15:00 | cait | it only makes sense if you ahve another Koha library to share with :) |
| 15:00 | ashimema | ill backends -> plugins |
| 15:01 | koha2koha yes cait | |
| 15:01 | PedroAmorim[m] | ah interesting |
| 15:02 | ashimema | it's one thing I don't like about out impliemntation ofr DisclaimeByType |
| 15:02 | it's not translatable | |
| 15:02 | tcohen[m] | We need an ILL configuration section |
| 15:02 | where we can do things like allowing use of ILL per patron category, per backend, and things like that | |
| 15:03 | PedroAmorim[m] | DisclaimeByType is yaml, language is easily fit in there if that's a requirement |
| 15:03 | but an ILL configuration section is something we need yes | |
| 15:03 | oleonard | yaml is awful from the usability perspective |
| 15:03 | tcohen[m] | Sysprefs is fine, but we need more fine grained control on things |
| 15:04 | ashimema | indeed |
| 15:04 | tcohen[m] | we need the configurations table :-P and a module specific configuration page |
| 15:04 | oleonard | tcohen[m]: If there was ever a time for you to abuse your power... |
| 15:04 | ashimema | we've been trying to move conf based ILL stuff into prefs |
| 15:05 | reiveune | bye |
| 15:05 | ashimema | but not really had the funding or interest from community to help them move |
| 15:05 | reiveune left #koha | |
| 15:05 | tcohen[m] | oleonard: shoot, it is now or in a few years |
| 15:06 | Joubu | Versions of the translated manual available - https://koha-community.org/documentation/ |
| 15:06 | welcome Portuguese, Slovak and Swedish | |
| 15:08 | oleonard | Okay, but let's talk about me again :D Is there a consensus that scripts should *not* check for an html customization like we would a preference? Keep it strictly preferences? |
| 15:08 | Joubu | I don't think it's a good idea, oleonard |
| 15:09 | ashimema | confused by the question |
| 15:09 | Joubu | I guess you will want more arguments... :D |
| 15:09 | oleonard | Joubu: Not me! :) |
| 15:10 | cait | I am confused too |
| 15:10 | oleonard | ashimema: the copyright clearance page doesn't appear unless ILLModuleCopyrightClearance is populated. |
| 15:10 | cait | we do have some features that rely on existence of notices |
| 15:10 | ashimema | correct |
| 15:10 | it's a step in the ILL workflow | |
| 15:10 | oleonard | If ILLModuleCopyrightClearance is an html_customiation, we would have to check for that instead. |
| 15:10 | cait | is html customizations very different? |

| 15:11 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=18203 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, pedro.amorim, Signed Off , Add per borrower category restrictions on placing ILL requests in OPAC |
| 15:11 | ashimema | I don't understand how you would replicate the workflow without checking it exists |
| 15:11 | oleonard | ashimema: I can create a new preference to turn ILLModuleCopyrightClearance on or off. But we would want to include a default somehow and I'm not sure that's feasible |
| 15:12 | ashimema | I'm still confused |
| 15:12 | cait | so the templates would check either a pref or for existance of the html customization to determine if the feature is to be used |
| 15:13 | ashimema | why not just check if said content is defined and show if it is, not if it's not |
| 15:13 | cait | I think that's exactly what oleonard was asking |
| 15:13 | oleonard | ashimema: That's what I'm asking! |
| 15:13 | cait | see! |
| 15:13 | heh | |
| 15:14 | aude_c[m] | <Joubu> "Versions of the translated..." <- They look beautiful! :D |
| 15:15 | oleonard | Only Joubu has voted. |
| 15:16 | ashimema | Personally.. I wouldn't bother adding a further preference to turn it on/off.. just the presence of the block makes sense to me.. |
| 15:16 | especially given there's already effectively an 'on/off' built into content blocks as they require a publication date | |
| 15:16 | lucas1 joined #koha | |
| 15:16 | ashimema | (which I don't entirely agree with.. I think a simple on/off or draft/publish would make sense in many cases instead) |
| 15:17 | tcohen[m] | <huginn> "Bug https://bugs.koha-community..." <- I hate it so much |
| 15:17 | oleonard | :O |
| 15:17 | ashimema | ? |
| 15:18 | tcohen[m] | I hate that we keep changing our model for each business rule we need to add. |
| 15:18 | A category is a category, rules for categories are different entities | |
| 15:18 | ashimema | ok |
| 15:18 | tcohen[m] | Adding that column, and many more, is a shortcut |
| 15:18 | ashimema | so you hate that it adds yet another field to the categories table |
| 15:19 | I get that.. but it was written years ago and there still isn't a normalised table off it to use yet | |
| 15:19 | ok | |
| 15:20 | tcohen[m] | The 'configurations' table takes the best ideas from 'circulation_rules' to provide a framework for that |
| 15:21 | ashimema | I can't find your configurations table bug now |
| 15:23 | I agree with you on the longer solution and getting such a table in place | |
| 15:23 | it just annoys me that something written in 2017 is still stuck | |

| 15:28 | ashimema | lets re-open it.. that's why I couldn't find it |
| 15:29 | krimsonkharne[m] | bye all! |
| 15:34 | tcohen[m] | gotta drive the kids to school |
| 15:34 | TTYL! | |
| 15:35 | ashimema: I'm not against adding those extra columns (but hidden from the API) and considering them technical debt to be dealth with, with commitment from authors to deal with it on the next cycle | |
| 15:36 | ashimema | haha.. don't be late on your school run dude |
| 15:36 | we can talk later | |
| 15:36 | tcohen[m] | And I'm obviously on board with it |
| 15:36 | ashimema | lets talk next week after the freeze 😜 |
| 15:36 | everything is uber busy again right now for all of us | |
| 15:37 | but I do have some big questions and directions I want to advocate for next cycle | |
| 15:37 | and this sort of architectural underpinning is super tied in with that. | |
| 15:37 | oleonard | ashimema: Sounds like a leader talking. A manager of sorts ;) |
| 15:38 | *Â ashimema | spends 80%+ of his time 'managing' now instead of coding |
| 15:39 | ashimema | and that's only likely to increase |
| 15:53 | oleonard | Huh... famfamfam.com has been down since January according to Wayback Machine |
| 15:54 | cait | oh |
| 15:58 | Joubu | 18203 - why isn't it a subpermission? |
| 16:00 | cait | bug 18203 |
| 16:00 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=18203 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, pedro.amorim, Signed Off , Add per borrower category restrictions on placing ILL requests in OPAC |
| 16:01 | cait | if I remember correctly that's for opac users |
| 16:01 | the ydon't have permissions | |
| 16:02 | we discusse dit a bit on the bug as at first it also affected staff users | |
| 16:02 | but the conflusion was that staff should be able to place ILL requests for users, we'd need to have categoris not able to place holds from the opac | |
| 16:02 | Joubu | they could have permissions, why not? |
| 16:03 | cait | usually you'd have something like: our staff and the people working here, they can place ILL requests |
| 16:03 | but guests not | |
| 16:04 | it's a category/group thing really | |
| 16:04 | not an individual | |
| 16:04 | and we don't assign patrons with permissions | |
| 16:04 | it's not something that you'd want to have to assign individually for the OPAC side | |
| 16:04 | caroline | it'd be a hassle to assign opac users permissions... especially for larger libraries who have thousands of patrons |
| 16:05 | cait | for a staff user "can place ILL requests for others" would make sense as a permission |
| 16:05 | but this is for limiting what you can do in the OPAC | |
| 16:17 | Joubu | don't we have "default permissions for a patron category"? |
| 16:17 | there is at east a script for that | |
| 16:18 | I mean, the column in categories sounds wrong, especially if it's something that can be driven by a permission | |
| 16:18 | caroline | there is a plugin, but there is no way to assign permissions to all the patrons in a category, as far as I know, unless it's really new |
| 16:20 | bug 18787 | |
| 16:20 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=18787 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Create permission profiles for staff users |
| 16:22 | cait | Joubu: we have lots of features that can be limited by category, it's a very common thing |
| 16:22 | not sure how that is differnt from suggestions and other things? | |
| 16:22 | caroline: there is no way | |
| 16:22 | and permissions are for staff users | |
| 16:22 | and you can't give a permission by default | |
| 16:23 | we do password change by patron category, we do pasword reset by category.. there is no difference really to other on/off things in the OPAC | |
| 16:24 | caroline | I don't think the question is whether we already do it or not, but whether it's the best way to do it |
| 16:26 | oleonard | Trying to track down a canonical link for our old jquery.insertatcaret.js plugin and the Google results always include us |
| 16:28 | cait | yeah, but I think for this feature... by category makes a lot of sense |
| 16:28 | and we'd need a lot of othr features to make it usable for a permission (bulk changes, default profiels etc.) | |
| 16:29 | Joubu | bug 31184 |
| 16:29 | huginn | 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=31184 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Add default permissions by patron category |
| 16:29 | cait | yes, but for staff users |
| 16:29 | Joubu | so we need that, problem solved :D |
| 16:29 | cait | and i still think it's wrong |
| 16:29 | you want to have one staff category | |
| 16:29 | not mulitple | |
| 16:29 | I want a permission profile | |
| 16:29 | a new thing, not wrapped into categories | |
| 16:29 | i don#t want to maintain circulation rules for multiple categories that are all the same | |
| 16:29 | just because i need them to have different permission profiels | |
| 16:30 | usually all users of a group are treated equally for the library services | |
| 16:31 | caroline | Could it be a profile and the default permissions for a category is XYZ profile? |
| 16:31 | cait | sure |
| 16:31 | ashimema | Rbac |
| 16:31 | cait | but then you coudl change the profiels on the users without changing their catgories |
| 16:32 | I still think i don't want this specific feature to be a permission | |
| 16:32 | i want to be able to turn it on/off without having to change a load of patrons | |
| 16:33 | caroline | Is that what is blocking that feature? I thought we were just talking hypothetically |
| 16:33 | cait | Joubu asked about that feature |
| 16:34 | ashimema | We were |
| 16:35 | It's more that a lot of things get held up now by a lack of interest or a push back long after the development to have it done a totally different eay | |
| 16:35 | I'm clocking out now. Have a good appropriate time of day everyone | |
| 16:35 | cait | well we have both complaints |
| 16:35 | ashimema | Byw |
| 16:36 | cait | we have complaints about lack of consistency, modern patterns etc. and than we have complaints about rewrites |
| 16:36 | I am not sure there is always a good answer | |
| 16:36 | it's always about balancing | |

| 17:48 | oleonard | Is drag-and-drop of reordering Elasticsearch of mappings supposed to work even if Elasticsearch isn't enabled? |
| 17:56 | khall joined #koha | |
| 18:00 | cait | hm I believe there was some discussion on a bug about the drag and drop |
| 18:00 | but unrelated to the feature being off or on | |
| 18:01 | oleonard | I don't think I've ever been able to get it to work, but I also never have Elasticsearch working |
| 18:05 | cait | I think there was a discussion about sorting and drag & drop and the effect or not it would have |
| 18:05 | but I am not sure either, we are not using Elastisearch yet | |
| 19:44 | tcohen[m] | cait: I agree we need to find a balance. I got my own work rejected for not having full UI tests with Cypress for a simple CRUD page, but then people complain we are concerned about the code quality of super big projects that might even have modules with no tests at all. That drains a lot of energy for the whole team |
| 19:45 | cait | balance is hard, we will never get it right always, but we need to try |
| 19:46 | tcohen[m] | Generally speaking, QA should fail more if possible and raise the bar. Companies struggling with rebases on really bad code shouldn't be a valid argument. Unless we consider those half finished features key for the project future and we all agree on 'doing it right ASAP' |
| 19:47 | cait | I think if we manage to get the old stuff out of queues, like keep them movig, we'll hopefully have to deal with less of that at some point... but it's superhard |
| 19:47 | I am glad we got the numbers down some | |

| 19:48 | tcohen[m] | I got asked UI tests for CRUD |
| 19:49 | we cannot accept code with no tests in some places, and then require cypress tests on others | |
| 19:51 | cait | hm agreed |
| 19:51 | i need to learn about cypress tests | |
| 19:51 | tcohen[m] | And maybe some old devs in the queue deserve to die and get started over |
| 19:51 | cait | they are similar to selenium? |
| 19:52 | tcohen[m] | I barely wrote some, it seems testing it all wasn't possible, to Joubu is doing some research |
| 19:52 | I believe my dev should've been PQA without cypress tests | |
| 19:53 | cait | sorry, I think I didn't see the comment on thatone |
| 19:55 | ashimema | it's easy to miss things during QA when your already up against it with your own stuff |
| 19:56 | tcohen[m] | Yeah, this things are not easy |
| 19:56 | ashimema | It's hard 😞 |
| 19:57 | We all need more time and support | |
| 19:57 | tcohen[m] | yeah, same |
| 19:57 | I wrote a lot of tests this last cycle heh | |
| 19:57 | gotta leave | |
| 19:57 | ttyl! | |
| 19:57 | ashimema | Apologies, I was grumpy sounding this afternoon again I think.. another long day |
| 19:57 | tcohen[m] | we are almost there with the release |
| 19:57 | ashimema | Yeah |
| 19:58 | You've done great | |
| 20:02 | cait | tcohen++ :) |
| 20:08 | ashimema | @later tell tcohen talking about lacking tests, I can add more tests for embedded redaction.. I realised during the final QA run by marcelr that more depth could be gone to in tests but held off changing further whilst he finished. Â Happy to spend an hour adding more tomorrow if you wish |
| 20:08 | huginn | ashimema: The operation succeeded. |
