10:05 mifantrax Hi everyone, i need some help and guidance, we have setup  access to catalog after login, we use 2 authentication methods, username and password or google openid, when a patron opens a direct link to an item and authenticates with username and password they get to the item itself however with openid they get redirected to the opac main page
10:05 mifantrax how could this be solved
10:05 mifantrax Thank a lot!
10:05 nlegrand morgn
10:06 Joubu mifantrax: double check the value of the system preferences OPACBaseURL
10:07 mifantrax it is correct, thank you, searching through similar issues that has seemed to be a common issue but it is setup correctly
10:08 mifantrax this is my value
10:08 mifantrax https://library.tcmi.edu
10:09 mifantrax it had to be set correctly to make openidwork
10:14 Joubu I think it's a bug. Could you open a bug report?
10:16 alex_a joined #koha
10:16 alex_a__ joined #koha
10:17 cait hm we are noticing more andmore problems with /Locale::Currency::Format
10:17 cait I've emailed the author ages ago but nver heard back... any chance we could replace it?
10:18 cait it just printed rounded fines into notices...
10:18 cait it's used for the formatting of items.fines in overdue notices
10:19 Joubu you should not get a different behavior than before, the module has not been updated since 2015
10:20 ashimema[m] indeed
10:20 cait debian update
10:20 ashimema[m] I was just thinking that
10:20 cait the problem started exactly the day after our debian update - went unnoticed for a while
10:20 cait i think we caught the newest version then
10:21 cait but don't have a reference server to check
10:21 ashimema[m] grr.. no Changes file :(
10:21 Joubu we should actually use the way we format price in the template
10:21 cait i think i know where the error is actually
10:21 cait but it doesn't help... because i can't fix it
10:21 cait https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug[…]lay.html?id=71623
10:21 Joubu Koha::Number::Price, that use Number::Format
10:21 Joubu and use the default currency defined in Koha
10:22 cait TRY has frac_len = 0, which turns into "round to 0 decimal"
10:22 cait i think it would be good to have only one way doing things
10:22 cait overall
10:22 cait we also have had to add "false currency codes" because some of the currencies have the wrong symbol
10:23 cait but therounding is especially annoying - working around it now by adding invalid iso codes
10:23 cait not nice
10:23 ashimema[m] I could probably get you a maintainer bit on that module if you like cait ;)
10:23 ashimema[m] it falls under most of the guidlines for how to take over a module
10:23 cait the module is not overly complicated, someone who accepts changes woudl be nice
10:24 ashimema[m] there's no repo for it linked on metacpan :(
10:25 ashimema[m] interestingly though.. it's fairly high up the cpan river :(
10:26 cait yeah i ws looking into doing a merge/pull request
10:26 cait i don't remember it having an issue tracker last time either - but there is now one
10:27 ashimema[m] well.. it's had one for a while given that the bug you hughligted was reported 8 years ago
10:27 ashimema[m] want me to ask mst for a commit bit?
10:29 cait maybe i missed it back then
10:30 cait not sure what that is
10:30 ashimema[m] it's in effect becoming a second author on the module.. gaining permission to take it over for maintanence
10:30 ashimema[m] I've asked him to remind me what the process is..
10:31 cait i am not sure i could manage it - but i can report our known bugs once this is moving forward
10:31 cait i am not sure about the rounding issue - but the wrong smbols would be a really easy fix
10:32 ashimema[m] ooh.. Lars used to contribute to it
10:32 ashimema[m] he may already have permission.. I can check that
10:32 ashimema[m] nope.. he doesn't

12:56 vfernandes any idea how to put ES indexing running in background?
12:56 vfernandes batch actions are too slow...
13:01 vfernandes update_index_brackground method in Koha::SearchEngine::Elasticsearch::Indexer points to update_index
13:03 vfernandes update_index waits until indexing is finished
13:03 vfernandes we need to create some mecanism to improve this methods

14:24 kohaputti ashimema[m], I don't have the skills to re-implement locking for Bug 13193 so if I'm going to do something it should be debian packaging. Have you heard anything from Mirko?

14:28 caroline_catlady I just got a message on the French (from France) translation mailing list saying they don't see their translations in the manual, do we know if bernardo has implemented the automatic updates?
14:28 caroline_catlady I admit I'm a biut out of the loop on that particular issue
14:35 lukeG joined #koha
14:40 inlibro joined #koha
14:46 ashimema[m] which manual (koha version), and when did they look and when did they do their translations
14:46 caroline_catlady yup, waiting for that info and I will let you know as soon as I have an answer
14:47 ashimema[m] my understanding is that the language get built nightly but only published on bernardo's server which isn't linked to from anywhere so you have to know it exists..
14:47 caroline_catlady aaah...
14:47 ashimema[m] as for pushing those changes to the public manual, that's a manual process of merging in the changes at release time still.. which may not have happened since they translated.
14:48 ashimema[m] what I'd like to see if the public manuals receive the nightly translations whenever anything changes
14:48 ashimema[m] there's an ongoing discussion in a gitlab issue I believe
14:48 caroline_catlady ok... should all language administrators be able to push the manual changes?
14:49 caroline_catlady I know the france team do translating sessions regularly
14:49 caroline_catlady maybe they could push after the session
14:49 caroline_catlady (they had one session on Monday, so I think that's where the complaint is from)
14:50 ashimema[m] we should automate it rather than asking them to do it
14:51 caroline_catlady I agree
14:51 fridolin joined #koha
14:52 ashimema[m] https://gitlab.com/koha-commun[…]-manual/issues/13
14:52 ashimema[m] see that thread for details of where we're currently at
14:52 ashimema[m] I think we're very nearly there.. just needs some final chasing through but I've lost track of who needs chasing to do what
14:53 ashimema[m] you can of course just go ahead and do a manual merge this once to get it updated and keep your person happy
14:53 caroline_crazycatlady joined #koha
14:53 cait i think we stil didn't fully agree on how to
14:54 caroline_crazycatlady bbl
14:54 cait if we want something quick... we could just have Bernardo push his generated files to the website storage
14:55 cait so we would show his until we figure out how to do it from the main manual repo

16:24 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
16:24 oleonard Hi mtompset, been a while
16:25 mtompset It has.
16:25 mtompset Just upgraded koha -- finally.
16:25 mtompset but plugins seem to be half-broken?
16:25 mtompset It uploads the plug.
16:25 mtompset but then it says no plugins are installed.
16:25 mtompset and the plugins-data table is empty.
16:26 mtompset finding kpz's to test is a pain.
16:26 oleonard mtompset: I tried that recently and found errors in the log which suggested the plugin was the problem
16:26 caroline_catlady https://koha-resources.inlibro.net/
16:27 caroline_catlady to find plugins ^
16:27 oleonard That's neat caroline_catlady !
16:27 caroline_catlady :)
16:27 caroline_catlady Not everything's in there yet, but getting there
16:27 wizzyrea would you consider it a bug to require a notice for every transport in use, otherwise the script stops?
16:28 oleonard mtompset: I tried to add the Koha MARC Record Checker and it didn't work
16:30 marieluce joined #koha
16:31 mtompset okay... cover flow installed and lists.
16:31 mtompset So I guess it really is if the plug in is busted.
16:32 mtompset caroline_catlady++ # thanks for that link.
16:32 caroline_catlady +1
16:33 mtompset do we have a koha-conf upgrade script?
16:33 mtompset something that would allow you to pluck missing xpaths into your existing koha-conf.
16:33 mtompset and show differences for existing ones.
16:35 wizzyrea i thought magnuse had something like that
16:36 mtompset really? That would be handy to know about.
16:36 mtompset I just upgraded from 3.20 to 19.05
16:38 * oleonard gets sympathetic whiplash
16:40 mtompset the upgrade was bumpy.
16:40 mtompset a field or two didn't get created.

16:43 Marie-Luce joined #koha
16:43 mtompset out of curiousity...
16:44 mtompset I think I noticed a strange error in the apache log...
16:45 mtompset Config variable ${instance} is not defined
16:49 mtompset ah... that's if plack is enabled.
16:52 tcohen mtompset: MARC checker has an extra dependency that is not pulled automatically by koha-common
16:53 tcohen and there's a install_plugins.pl script in the devel dir
16:53 tcohen just in case
16:53 tcohen somehow
16:53 tcohen it didn't get installed

17:01 oleonard Hi tcohen
17:02 oleonard tcohen: I'm back on Bug 23501 and have a question if you have a moment

17:03 khall_ joined #koha
17:14 tcohen oleonard: shoot
17:15 oleonard The API returns some data which isn't end-user friendly, like borrowernumber and itemnumber. What is the best way to translate that data into something useful?
17:16 Joubu :)
17:16 * oleonard suspects Joubu has thoughts
17:18 Joubu I have been waiting for that answer for years
17:18 Joubu however there is something more or less ready I think, tcohen knows

17:54 * ashimema[m] seems to remember implementing a re-orderable list somewhere which didn't require full page reloads
17:54 * ashimema[m] thinks it might have been stock rotation.. could we not follow that example?
18:04 ashimema[m] It was stock rotation rota stages management

21:19 huginn hayley: The operation succeeded.
21:19 hayley sorry for the interruptions ashimema[m] :)
21:19 ashimema[m] #info Katrin sends her apologies, not feeling well this evening
21:19 ashimema[m] I'm happy to take a look at Jenkins too once the meeting is closed ;)
21:19 hayley oh thank you! :D
21:20 ashimema[m] #info QA is moving along, lots more to do, but it's nice to see the pace picking up again.
21:20 * ashimema[m] is looking forward to well rested QA people in the nw year wo ar super keen to test all the tihngs
21:21 ashimema[m] #topic General development discussion
21:21 Topic for #koha is now General development discussion (Meeting topic: Development IRC meeting 18 December 2019)
21:21 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #199: STILL FAILING in 32 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/199/
21:22 ashimema[m] #info So, we raised the idea of shaking up release cycles during the last general meeting.. Please take a look at the minutes and contribute you're thoughts to the wiki page
21:22 ashimema[m] #link https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]Versioning_-_Next Cycles Discussion
21:24 ashimema[m] To summarise, with all the things going on the library world at the moment (FOLIO, Acquisitions and Mergers) I think it's important to swing around and ask ourselves as a community what our strengths and weaknesses are and if we can improve anything.

21:24 davidnind ashimema++
21:25 hayley ashimema[m] sounds good!
21:25 ashimema[m] We discusses release cycle cadence, continious integration/deployment practices, expiriment and stabalise and various other practices..
21:25 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D8 build #209: STILL FAILING in 29 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D8/209/
21:26 ashimema[m] conversation to date is summarised on that wiki page, please contribute your thoughts there or catch me here if you want to discus anything with a smaller audience before expanding it to the wider groups.
21:26 davidnind always good to have a look around at what other projects are doing, and picking up ideas for improvement
21:26 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #200: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/200/
21:27 ashimema[m] anything you wish to raise regarding dev and documentation davidnind ?
21:27 ashimema[m] as in.. hows the translations processes going.. do we need to tie it down any further... are you waiting on anyone for anything
21:27 davidnind not at this stage, caroline_catlady is adding all the bugs to our task list in taiga
21:27 ashimema[m] brill
21:28 caroline_catlady it's slower this week at the office, trying to catch up on docs work
21:28 ashimema[m] ok.. lets move on then unless anyone else wants to take the floor and raise anything.. now's your chance
21:28 davidnind I'll post a summary on the issue about the translation process, and then we need tod ecide what to do I guess
21:29 caroline_catlady There was the message from this morning regarding translations
21:29 caroline_catlady (my morning time sorry)
21:29 davidnind should we try and get release note text added once the bug is pushed to master, rather than trying to do all at once nearer the end?
21:29 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D9 build #211: STILL FAILING in 34 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D9/211/
21:29 caroline_catlady +1
21:30 * ashimema[m] did sort of try to do it whilst going along last cycle.. but struggled to keep up
21:30 davidnind that helps when working what the issue is about, sometimes it can be hard to work out what the change is about and waht documentation changes are required
21:30 lukeG joined #koha
21:30 ashimema[m] very good idea to raise it again though.
21:30 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D8 build #210: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D8/210/
21:30 ashimema[m] any thoughts on what to concentrate on with that regard
21:30 caroline_catlady I'll try to keep an eye on release notes, and let you know ashimema[m] if there's any bug that should be described more
21:31 ashimema[m] in the last release I tried to ensure all new features had a good summary, then I picked as many enahncements as I could get through and finally I went through looking at bugs for preference changes and db changes that would need report updates
21:31 ashimema[m] :)
21:31 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #201: STILL FAILING in 31 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/201/
21:31 caroline_catlady loved the preferences and reports notes :)
21:31 ashimema[m] this sort of ties into the next topic
21:31 ashimema[m] so...
21:31 lisettelatah I try to add release notes as I see things are PQA. If you want to let me know if you think something needs release notes I'm happy to help with that.
21:32 ashimema[m] awesome
21:32 hayley is there a guide to writing a good release note?
21:32 davidnind great!
21:32 ashimema[m] hmm.. no formal guide yet.. but perhaps we should create one
21:33 ashimema[m] #topic Review of coding guidelines
21:33 Topic for #koha is now Review of coding guidelines (Meeting topic: Development IRC meeting 18 December 2019)
21:33 davidnind if there isn't I'm happy to have a go
21:33 ashimema[m] #idea Should we add some guidlines for writing good summaries for the release notes
21:34 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D9 build #212: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D9/212/
21:34 davidnind can propose something for the next meeting as a coding guideline for the next meeting
21:34 ashimema[m] #idea Should we require summaries for release notes for certain categories of bugs as part of the QA process?
21:35 ashimema[m] #idea Should we require documentation merge requests for certain bug categories as part of the QA process?
21:35 caroline_catlady I'm ambivalent... I fear it would make the process heavier
21:35 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D8 build #211: STILL FAILING in 30 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D8/211/
21:35 ashimema[m] hmm..
21:36 ashimema[m] not sure it's heavier as much as it's just shifting the 'when' for doing it..
21:36 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #202: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/202/
21:37 ashimema[m] I really don't like enhancements and new features going in without any form of documentation at release time
21:37 ashimema[m] and it's a massive task for you guys to write all the docs for everything new in the last days/weeks before release
21:37 caroline_catlady docs is still very behind, but if we can be more involved during the process maybe we could be of help?
21:37 ashimema[m] it also makes testing and qa simpler if we have a clear manual for what the feature is meant to do
21:38 hayley I agree, but then I don't have the QA/Documentation experience
21:38 ashimema[m] indeed.. all QA is 'guidelines' anyway.. so the team won't allow it to hold up code without good reason ;)
21:39 lisettelatah If there are clear guidelines for what it should do, we might be able to get more people to do signoffs.
21:39 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D9 build #213: STILL FAILING in 33 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D9/213/
21:39 ashimema[m] one of the things I do occasionally for bywater bugs for instance is that I request their educators write docs for a bug before I go ahead and do a final QA run on it.
21:40 davidnind in an ideal world it would be nice to get docs updated soon after bugs are pushed to master , while everything is fresh in everyone's minds
21:40 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D8 build #212: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D8/212/
21:40 ashimema[m] indeed
21:40 davidnind once we get through the backlog... :-D
21:41 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #203: ABORTED in 29 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/203/
21:41 davidnind even an attachment to the bug would be helpful, however it is written
21:42 inlibro joined #koha
21:42 ashimema[m] lets leave those as idea's then and bring it back up next meeting in January
21:43 hayley ++
21:43 aleisha sorry im a bit late but i think it would be cool if it became custom to update those docs. extra work for sure but helpful for everyone and could just become habit after some time
21:44 aleisha but yes can be brought back up in jan!
21:44 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D9 build #214: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D9/214/
21:44 ashimema[m] Yeah.. I'd like to make it a good habbit people get into..
21:44 ashimema[m] rather than just introducing more pain
21:45 ashimema[m] ok.. shall we move on to setting the time of the next meeting
21:45 ashimema[m] #topic Set time of next meeting
21:45 Topic for #koha is now Set time of next meeting (Meeting topic: Development IRC meeting 18 December 2019)
21:47 davidnind 15th January? (unless you want the 1st of Jan !)
21:47 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #204: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/204/
21:47 ashimema[m] I was just thinking the same
21:48 ashimema[m] there's a general meeting on the 8th
21:48 ashimema[m] so yeah.. 15th works
21:48 ashimema[m] nd the general meeting is a later one I believe so the 'flop' to the earlier time for the dev meeting makes sense I think
21:48 ashimema[m] so
21:49 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_D9 build #215: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]oha_18.11_D9/215/

21:51 ashimema[m] so.. Jenkins
21:51 ashimema[m] looks like the nodes are all down and the master is stuck in a loop
21:51 ashimema[m] I don't have the access to kick that I think
21:51 ashimema[m] so.. we do need tcohen :(
21:51 koha-jenkins Project Koha_18.11_U18 build #205: STILL FAILING in 12 sec: https://jenkins.koha-community[…]ha_18.11_U18/205/
