08:35 davewood hi, is there a prefered way to delete books from the koha database?
08:36 davewood im testing a catmandu fixer script and just want to wipe the DB
08:46 liliputech_asu joined #koha
08:58 inlibro joined #koha
09:34 ashimema C4::Biblio::DelBiblio.. perhaps?
09:54 davewood bulkmrcimport.pl has a flag to delete
09:54 davewood -d  Delete EVERYTHING related to biblio in koha-DB before import.
09:54 davewood Tables: biblio, biblioitems, items
09:56 davewood but that gives me foreign key constraing violation errors. my confidence in this script workin at all is not very high.
09:58 inlibro joined #koha
10:10 cait1 davewood: which version?
10:10 wahanui rumour has it which version is thiis
10:11 cait1 I believe bug 12488 should have fixed your issue
10:11 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12488 normal, P5 - low, ---, magnus, CLOSED FIXED, Make bulkmarcimport.pl -d use DELETE instead of TRUNCATE
10:15 cait1 davewood: depending on the number of records the bulk delete tool might also work for you - but it will move them to deletedbiblio etc.
10:36 davewood koha 20.11
10:39 davewood http://paste.scsys.co.uk/594293
10:41 cait1 hm can you file a bug report please?
10:41 cait1 we have tightened some things in the db, this might be a side effect
10:41 cait1 but basically... you have issues
10:41 cait1 Ausleihen
10:41 cait1 so it's correct in failing
10:41 cait1 if you truncate the issues first this is probably going to work better
10:42 cait1 the script is not supposed to be used once you have loaded other transactional data atm
10:42 cait1 for the same data...
10:43 magnuse \o/
10:44 cait1 hi magnuse :)
10:44 cait1 has someone done very basic subscriptions in migration?
10:44 cait1 i basically need them for orders - they will have to be edited later
10:45 magnuse hiya cait1
10:45 cait1 i wonder if i need to go full way with the history table and serial table too or if i can cheat and do just a basic entry in subscripion
10:45 magnuse never tried it
10:46 cait1 thx for the honest answer :)
10:46 cait1 would you recommend against it?
10:47 cait1 the system we are migrating from has stnding order, normal orders and subscription orders... I'd like to do the same in Koha
10:47 cait1 but have been wondering
10:50 cait1 I*ll do some testing with manual imports
10:58 inlibro joined #koha
10:59 cait1 hm subscription.status - it's not the one to indicate if cancelled... so what is it? :)
10:59 cait1 no comment on schema
10:59 cait1 varchar 100
11:01 fridolin Bug 27310
11:01 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=27310 minor, P5 - low, ---, fridolin.somers, Needs Signoff , Wrong CSS float on 'Visibility' in framework edition
11:01 fridolin staff interface needs to be perfect ;)
11:16 magnuse cait1: worth a try, i'd say

12:56 cait1 fist find: you need subsriptionhistory because GetSubscription is a little dumb
12:57 davewood cait1: https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=27313
12:57 huginn Bug 27313: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , bulkmarcimport.pl -d foreign key constraint fails
12:57 davewood thanks for the help so far

13:09 liliputech_asu joined #koha
13:21 magnuse should an atomicupdate file for just adding a syspref still be a .sql file, or is .perl preferred?
13:22 cait1 perl is always preferred afaik
13:22 cait1 i guess it makes sense, because it's easier to copy and paste for RM
13:33 magnuse yeah, that's what i thought too
13:34 did joined #koha
13:42 cait1 Next find: serial is required because GetFullDescription is a little dumb too ;)
13:42 SarahD joined #koha
13:42 magnuse dumb and dumber...
13:42 bdonnahue1 joined #koha
13:42 cait1 kind of
13:42 cait1 WHERE     serial.subscriptionid = 2
13:43 cait1 in GetFullSubscription
13:43 cait1 well it's based on serial so there is no way out really
13:44 cait1 it's also interesting that we have biblionumber in all tables
13:44 cait1 subscription, subscirpitonhistory and serial
13:46 SarahD Hello! Curious if anyone here has integrated MedlinePlus XML records into Koha?
13:47 cait1 hi Sarah
13:47 cait1 I assume these are an internal XML format, not MARCXML?
13:47 SarahD Correct
13:51 SarahD From here: https://medlineplus.gov/xml.html
13:51 fridolin joined #koha
13:52 cait1 Koha can only work with MARC data, so I think you wil have to convert it to import them into Koha
13:53 cait1 ashimema: have you seen data like that?
13:53 SarahD Ah, yes I knew that. Just wanted to see them in someone else's catalog to show to my supervisor what's possible. looking for an example.
13:54 ashimema I have migrated/imported similar authority data somewhere I think
13:55 ashimema classification/categorisation data isn't it?
13:55 ashimema I have very vague recollections though I'm afraid.. must have been at least 5 years ago
13:56 ashimema but it was around medical terms too
13:56 ashimema we've done similar for legal terms I believe
13:57 cait1 Sarah: there are some health related libraries on the mailing list I think - maybe worth trying there as well
13:58 SarahD I'll give that a shot. Thanks!

14:14 magnuse have fun #koha - see you next year!
14:43 liliputech_asu joined #koha
14:59 inlibro joined #koha
15:02 tcohen What is needed, is a plugin that takes care of the conversion
15:03 tcohen and then, use the regular workflow for importing
15:06 cait1 true, would be a good case for an import plugin
15:06 cait1 but i think at the moment we don't have many examples for that type at all?
15:11 deb-CSPL joined #koha
15:41 tcohen there's the CSV2MARC one
15:42 tcohen https://github.com/bywatersolu[…]a-plugin-csv2marc
15:42 tcohen we added some pretty awesome enhancements recently
15:42 tcohen we should port it into Koha
15:44 cait1 hm how do you mean? as a core feature?
15:44 cait1 i've only ever seen the CSV one
15:44 cait1 workign with XML like the medline woudl need a different base one as a model
15:47 liliputech_asu joined #koha
15:52 tcohen I mean the CSV one could be a core feature
15:52 tcohen and yes, the XML would need a different piece of code, to handle XML instead of CSV, and the mappings could need to be different

16:37 lukeG joined #koha
16:39 cait1 isn't HAVING standard?
16:39 ashimema it is..
16:39 ashimema but mysql 5.5 and 5.6 had a broken implementation I believe
16:40 cait1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Having_(SQL)
16:40 cait1 ok, I don't know about that
16:40 cait1 I used it in my reports somewhat regularly
16:40 cait1 time to sign off - cya tomorrow!

19:43 tuxayo tcohen++ thanks for the review, I'll be able to write more UI tests now :D
19:44 tcohen tuxayo++ you did a gretat job
19:45 tuxayo tcohen: thanks, it was a good way to get the hands on the tooling :)
19:46 tcohen indeed
19:46 tcohen I always stayed away from selenium
19:47 tuxayo hehe, for me it's the unit and integration tests that I struggle with
19:47 paul_p joined #koha
19:47 * tcohen knows he will regret saying this, but 'I enjoy writing tests'
19:48 tuxayo For me it's UI test :P
19:48 tuxayo *tests
19:48 tcohen good team :-D
19:50 paul_p joined #koha
19:50 tuxayo :D
19:51 tuxayo I hope future selenium versions support will be there in our perl lib or that we will find an alternative before having too much perl Selenium tests to port.
19:52 tcohen we really need to find something else
19:52 paul_p joined #koha
19:53 tuxayo really? I'm lacking info on this so I don't know on which side to lean
19:54 tuxayo > really?
19:54 tuxayo Indeed the words or our lib maintainer aren't encouraging ^^"
19:57 tcohen we could keep doing Selenium, but not using the Perl library for that
19:59 paul_p joined #koha
19:59 tcohen there are JavaScript or Python libraries for that as well
