07:56 cait morning #koha
07:59 francharb 0/ cait
07:59 cait hi francharb :)
08:12 drojf hi #koha
08:26 cait wow
08:26 cait I can search again
08:26 cait after reverting one patch
08:29 drojf great
08:29 drojf what patch was it?
08:30 cait the same htat gave jared trouble
08:30 cait adding limits to search history
08:31 cait I am sure it didn't do that when I tested it
08:32 drojf ah the one that rangi reverted out of 3.8?
08:34 rangi yep
08:34 cait exactly that one
08:34 cait i really wonder what's going wrong there, strange symptoms
08:35 drojf oh-oh that could have been bad
08:35 cait drojf: but you weren't able to confirm the problem... it still quite a mystery
08:35 cait did you activate search history?
08:36 drojf not that i know of
08:39 cait not sure if it's activated by default or not
08:39 cait it would show up as a separate link on top of your opac
08:40 cait where the link to the borrower account is
08:42 drojf oh yes i had thar
08:42 drojf that
08:43 drojf apparently it does not break everything for everybody or it would not have been pushed to 3.8
08:44 cait hm yeah, but it certainly broke my master installation
08:44 cait perhaps some bad combination of preferneces? I am running out of ideas...
08:44 cait only glad I can continue testing now
08:45 cait ok brb
09:32 cait @wunder Konstanz
09:32 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 21.1°C (11:30 AM CEST on July 08, 2012). Conditions: Mostly Cloudy. Humidity: 69%. Dew Point: 15.0°C. Pressure: 29.95 in 1014 hPa (Steady).
09:32 cait not so hot today it seems :)
09:36 cait oook, deactivating search history in opac fixes all my problems on master (for the logs ;) )
09:36 drojf1 heh
09:37 rangi http://dashboard.koha-community.org/
09:37 rangi checkout the random bug
09:38 rangi it pulls up one that isnt closed, resolved or pushed
09:38 cait wow cool!
09:39 cait rangi++
09:39 cait I love it
09:39 cait one problem with gbsd I think was lack of visuals :) this is very nice!
09:39 drojf1 hey that's cool
09:39 drojf1 rangi++
09:39 rangi im gonna add oldest 5 bugs needing sign off now
09:40 drojf1 make it look scary so we get a guilty conscience :)
09:41 cait hehe
09:41 cait yeah :)
09:41 cait hm I could try to come up with some css
09:41 cait for the last 10 sign offs
09:41 drojf1 make a double rainbow for jcamins_away
09:41 drojf1 he has half the sign offs
09:43 rangi thatwould be good, any css gratefully accepted
09:43 cait yeah
09:43 cait thinking
09:43 rangi im making that 5, and 5 needs signoff
09:43 rangi and ill also try to get info from jenkins to display
09:44 cait we don't have long lines here, so I think breaking the information on 2 lines would be better
09:44 cait like name and time and bug number and description on next
09:44 cait and then give some more space between entries
09:45 cait I am making a dummy
09:51 * drojf tries a different modem
09:51 cait good luck :)
09:51 drojf thanks
09:51 drojf but the one i'm trying is supposed to be the one that acts weird
09:52 drojf i'll guess i'll make them send me a third one :(
09:52 cait meh
09:52 cait it refuses to upload the picture
09:52 francharb hey cait, do you know the difference between "budget_manage" and "budget_add_del"/"budget_modify" permissions in the acquisition module
09:52 francharb ?
09:52 drojf eeew some plastic waste is hanging down on my balkony from the guy one floor up
09:52 cait no but there is a long standing bug abou tit
09:52 cait and noone ever gave me an answer
09:52 cait look for acquisition permissons
09:52 drojf balcony even
09:53 francharb cait, I will ask julian tomorrow
09:53 cait francharb: it's been confusing from the beginning :( and the descriptions are sometimes even the same
09:53 cait francharb: please ask him to take a look at the bug too maybe?
09:53 cait bug 3849
09:53 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3849 normal, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, NEW , Acq Permissions unclear
09:53 cait it's really an old one
09:54 rangi updated
09:55 francharb cait, the thing I already know is that "period" means "budgets" and "budgets" means "funds"
09:55 francharb :)
09:55 cait confusing! heh
09:55 cait we should really make it match the interface at least
09:55 cait wher eit shows in the interface
09:55 rangi the needs signoff will get new ones every 100000 milliseconds
09:55 francharb and I guess : manage budget is when you want librarian to be able to use funds
09:56 francharb and budget add/del modify is to allow librarian to manage funds on the admin level
09:56 francharb cait++
09:56 drojf rangi: the number of last signoffs is a lie ;)
09:56 rangi oh yeah ill change that
09:56 cait rangi give me a minute to show oyu my screenshot... all my tools acting up toda
09:56 cait y
09:56 * francharb is adding something new on his todo list
09:56 francharb \0/
09:58 francharb (by the way, I'm using trello.com to help me getting organised. it's kind of cool! i recommend it ;)
09:58 francharb time for lunch
09:58 francharb see you later
09:58 cait [off] http://librarygeekgirl.de/pics/test.png
09:59 cait rearranged the information a bit and added padding:5px to the li element
09:59 rangi looking now
10:00 rangi can you paste the css/html
10:00 cait it's a bit ugly because I did it in firebug, give me a sec
10:07 cait hm instead of using padding:5px you could do padding-bottom:10px - then the other things will fit a bit better
10:08 cait and maybe give the content div a bit of margin to the left border
10:08 cait margin:left:5px or something
10:08 cait I am not so good with css - owen would probably not be too happy with me :)
10:17 rangi hows that?
10:18 cait yay :)
10:18 cait I like it :)
10:18 cait hope you do too?
10:18 rangi yup
10:18 cait cool :)
10:18 rangi wanna reply to my mail, with the link to that
10:18 rangi im gonna turn the other one off
10:18 cait ah, so what do you want me to rewrite?
10:18 cait new improved version at ... ?
10:19 rangi :)
10:19 rangi yep, in the spirit of collaboration that koha is famous for :-)
10:19 cait you did all the work on it :)
10:21 rangi updated the nav
10:21 cait maybe better use {padding-bottom:10px;} and add some padding to the content element? it looks a bit squashed
10:22 rangi ?
10:23 cait #content {padding:Â 15px 20px 15px 10px;}
10:23 cait what would make it the same as the sidebar
10:23 cait moving the text a bit away from the borders
10:23 rangi lemme try
10:24 cait and then: #example_4 ul li {Â Â Â Â padding-bottom:Â 10px;}
10:24 cait because else the left padding adds up
10:24 rangi like that?
10:29 cait rangi: the needs signoff are the oldest now? or random?
10:29 rangi oldest
10:33 francharb re
10:33 rangi wb francharb
10:34 francharb \0/ rangi
10:35 cait rangi: about the css - still looks the same?
10:36 cait nice navigation :)
10:36 cait rangi: I think the css does not work because there are some weird characters in there
10:37 cait I will make you a clean paste
10:37 rangi hmm?
10:37 cait http://paste.koha-community.org/18
10:43 rangi hows that?
10:44 cait yep
10:44 cait :)
10:44 cait now it looks like intended
10:46 cait so if you now made last 5 sign offs h3 instead of h2... all the headlines would be the same size
10:46 cait :P
10:46 cait yes, I am terrible
10:47 cait hm jenkins status is h2 too, it's only b it of mixed, perhaps intentional
10:51 rangi all h3 now
10:58 cait yay
10:58 cait :)
10:58 cait what will jenkins show?
10:59 rangi probably just the status of jobs
11:01 cait :)
11:41 cait drojf++ for overdue bug 7143
11:41 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7143 trivial, P5 - low, ---, katrin.fischer, Passed QA , Bug for tracking changes to the about page
12:36 jcamins Hey, didn't I sign off on bug 5635?
12:36 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5635 enhancement, P1 - high, ---, stephane.delaune, Needs Signoff , bulkmarcimport new parameters & features
12:38 cait jcamins: I can't remember
12:38 cait but I had to fail 2 of your patches :(
12:39 jcamins cait: oh no!
12:39 cait I am sorry :(
12:39 jcamins That's what QA is for.
12:39 cait yeah, but I am still sorry
12:40 jcamins Could you attach a screenshot of bug 8204?
12:40 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8204 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Failed QA , Authority viewer in OPAC ugly, unfriendly, and mostly useless
12:41 cait what's the critical point?
12:41 jcamins I'm wondering where the links to the MARC view went.
12:41 jcamins I'm hoping if I see a screenshot, it will give me a hint about why the tabs aren't there.
12:42 cait ah
12:42 cait so there should be tabs to different views?
12:42 jcamins Yup.
12:42 jcamins Also, the hash thing is an old bug.
12:42 jcamins Actually, let me see when I attached the patch.
12:42 cait it's not appearing on current master
12:43 jcamins Old bug in my code.
12:43 jcamins Of course it doesn't appear on current master... neither does any indication of what the main entry is. ;)
12:43 cait oh !
12:43 cait I missed the tabs
12:43 cait I am sorry!
12:44 cait the tabs are there :)
12:44 cait so it's only the hash thing
12:44 cait and maybe not showing the headline when there are no entries following
12:46 cait hm
12:46 cait and the fact that my system keeps mailing errors
12:47 jcamins Okay, found the errors.
12:58 cait jcamins: have you seen http://dashboard.koha-community.org/
12:58 cait ?
12:58 jcamins cait: I have.
12:58 jcamins It's very, very cool!
12:59 cait it totally is! rangi++
13:03 jcamins 8204 is ready for another look. :)
13:07 cait ok
13:07 cait going back to that
13:08 jcamins :)
13:09 cait hm
13:55 mveron hi #koha
13:55 cait hi mveron :)
13:56 cait why are you not at the beach!?
13:56 mveron It is to hot...
13:56 cait @wunder Konstanz
13:56 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 24.3°C (3:55 PM CEST on July 08, 2012). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 61%. Dew Point: 16.0°C. Pressure: 29.92 in 1013 hPa (Steady).
13:56 cait mveron: I can undertand that reasoning
13:56 mveron 24° is not bad...
13:56 cait no, it's nice
13:57 mveron But the early morning and the evennings are nics
13:57 jcamins Ah-ha!
13:57 mveron Much sun, I have not to much contraast on my screen...
13:58 mveron mbalmer around?
14:03 mveron @wunder Kamares
14:03 huginn mveron: Error: No such location could be found.
14:04 cait haven't seen mbalmer today I think
14:05 mveron Thanks, cait :-)
14:26 * mveron ...has to get some cold drink :-)
14:47 francharb see you later
14:59 mbalmer cait, actually I am here
15:04 cait ah
15:04 cait only meant I didn't see you talking that day
15:05 * cait just finished her attempt on making baileys fudge like bought in edinburgh
15:05 mbalmer yeah, I did not say much, was occupied with debian packaging stuff and setting up secure chrooted repositories
15:06 cait ... and I covered half of my kitchen in caramel...
15:06 mbalmer hehe ;(
15:07 cait hope the result is worth all the stickiness
15:09 cait the first saucepan was too small
15:10 mbalmer it will work out.
15:11 jcamins_away Why did you chroot the repository?
15:11 cait thx :)
15:12 mbalmer jcaming_away, every "customers" gets an account and registers the machines using a ssh key. they can access the repo in a safe manner and only get the packages they need to (we use the apt-get ssh method)
15:13 jcamins_away mbalmer: ah, I see.
15:13 mbalmer so they don't get a shell when they log in via ssh, they can only execute the commands apt-get needs, and are confined to a chroot jail.
15:14 jcamins_away Right, that makes sense.
15:14 * jcamins_away uses a regular apt repo, so it's just a matter of apt-get upgrade on the customer's server.
15:15 mbalmer wrote a small shell, aptsh, which allows only find and dd to be executed, aka what apt-get needs. that plus chroot makes it more or less secure (I I think more more than less)
15:15 mbalmer yes, and this is a regular repo, clients use synaptic or apt-get update/apt-get upgrade
15:17 jcamins_away Ah, just one only accessed via SSH.
15:17 mbalmer client enters our server to the apt sources and hands in his ssh key. we then decide what packages he "sees"
15:17 mbalmer yes, and of course it contains only the "special" packages, i.e. customer specific ones.
15:17 jcamins_away Okay, that's pretty cool. :)
15:18 mbalmer in the case of licensed software, he only sees those packages he licensed. an all seems to be secure.

15:37 cait hi drojf

15:37 cait @wunder Konstanz
15:37 drojf overcast. haha. thunderstorm again
15:37 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 23.7°C (5:35 PM CEST on July 08, 2012). Conditions: Mostly Cloudy. Humidity: 65%. Dew Point: 17.0°C. Pressure: 29.92 in 1013 hPa (Steady).
15:48 sandeepbhavsar hi all
16:20 drojf rangi: can you make the "last signoffs" appear in a different colour if it was a bug from the "needs signoff" list?
16:21 drojf like, premium signoff?
16:23 cait the older the better?
16:24 cait I fear my fudge is not setting
16:24 drojf oooh
16:24 cait or i am afraid it does not
16:24 cait *sigh*
16:25 drojf don't know mudge (haha) about fudgemaking, but maybe some patience will help
16:25 cait i hope
16:25 * drojf hopes too
16:26 cait thx :)
19:08 * drojf wonders what he has to do to index authorities so that they can be found
19:09 mbalmer so
19:10 drojf so?
19:10 wahanui so is a long road.
19:11 jcamins_away drojf: shouldn't need to do much of anything.
19:12 mbalmer so means I am going to take a sauna bath ;)
19:12 drojf jcamins_away: i added an authority personal name record when i wanted to try a patch of you. turned out it shows up nowhere
19:12 drojf mbalmer: too much information :P
19:12 mbalmer it's only hot
19:14 drojf jcamins_away: i have not really done anything with authorities before so maybe i'm just missing something. zebra said something of 4 authority records, nut i cannot find them either in opac or staff client
19:14 drojf +but
19:15 mbalmer the hot pot is a cool place to discuss koha features, trust me!
19:39 drojf jcamins_away: so you are right in the end and now it just shows up. weird, because i put that data in yesterday.
19:48 rangi Wow not one of those suggestions is either valid or good
19:49 jcamins rangi: I wondered.
19:50 cait rangi, jcamins?
19:51 jcamins cait: on the list.
19:51 * jcamins won't get involved.
19:53 cait hm me neither
19:53 cait not until I have figured it out with my coworker
19:54 rangi Well it's easy syspref and move on to something actually useful.
19:54 rangi Pointless discussions are pointless
19:57 rangi And let 'helpful' people help
19:59 drojf yes i don't see why "let's have a syspref" is not the one and only answer to this. after that i don't care what anybody does with it
20:02 rangi Slightly
20:02 drojf "Solr uses at least 1Gb of memory by default and http://vufind.org/wiki/performance suggests more than 4Gb"
20:02 drojf who puts such raspberry-pi-unfriendly stuff in koha?
20:02 rangi Heh
20:02 jcamins Hehe.
20:02 jcamins Zebra won't be going anywhere for a while, I don't think.
20:03 drojf i guess i should get a "real" git too
20:03 rangi Hence the desire to make it optional
20:07 jcamins Am I the only one who saw this "loophole" as a feature?
20:07 jcamins The ability for non-authenticated users to e-mail records is standard in every single other OPAC that I have seen.
20:07 cait i liked it too :(
20:08 jcamins Since it's considered harmful, I'll just revert out that patch for my customers in a year.
20:19 rangi Well it gets worse if ppl listen to that email. That would restrict to only send to yourself
20:19 jcamins Yes, that would be a lot worse, but not being able to send a cart without logging in is a pretty huge nuisance already.
20:21 rangi yes, yes it is
20:26 * cait nods
20:43 ropuch Good evening
20:43 cait hi ropuch :)
20:43 ropuch cait: how's your opac-search problem? have you solved it?
20:43 cait oh yes I have
20:43 cait it was a bad patch
20:44 ropuch What was the cause?
20:44 ropuch Oh
20:44 cait not sure how the patch caused the proble
20:44 cait but reverting it or disabling opacsearchhistory fixes it
20:50 ropuch Hm, it's been a long time since I send some patch, what should I type in "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?"
20:51 ropuch (I'm trying to send updated polish translation for some installer files)
20:51 rangi https://gitorious.org/koha-dashboard now people can clone and fix my css
20:52 rangi ahh, ropuch i would just attach them to the bug
20:52 rangi and mark it needs signoff, and not worry about the mailing list
20:52 ropuch So I should create a bug first?
20:53 rangi *nod* or check if one already exists and update it
20:53 rangi there might be one marked resolved already
20:53 rangi if not yep, a new one (every patch should have a bug number)
20:54 ropuch Make sense ;)
20:55 ropuch It's kinda funny I'm back on Koha translating when I'm about to stop working in library ;>
20:56 rangi heh
20:56 rangi you can never escape koha :)
20:57 cait ropuch: oh?
20:57 rangi or libraries
20:57 wahanui libraries are the kings of overcomplication
20:57 rangi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWpyAWjfySY&feature=g-upl
21:09 ropuch cait: yup, from the next month I won't be working as librarian or in library (but I'll still consider myself as one ;-)
21:10 cait hm
21:10 cait so what are you going to do then? :)
21:10 ropuch technical support engineer
21:10 cait sounds important
21:10 cait :)
21:10 ropuch hehehe
21:11 ropuch Yea, 3 words! ;-))
21:11 cait working with libraries?
21:11 ropuch Nope, afair completly unrelated
21:11 cait ah
21:11 cait but updating koha before you leave?
21:11 ropuch We have 3.8.2 already ;>
21:12 cait oh
21:13 ropuch Actually I think I will contribute more form now on
21:13 rangi w00t!!
21:15 cait :)
21:15 cait woot indeed
21:15 ropuch I mean: in my spare time
21:16 cait you are here now... and I am too... heh
21:17 drojf oh cait signed off my patch for the german translators. that's cool, i really don't want to enter koha history with a patch that just puts my name in a file. i have not submitted this since 3.4 so i have something real before…
21:17 cait drojf: we should have added your name there earlier :)
21:17 cait was I not supposed to sign it off?
21:18 drojf doesn't matter, but i'd prefer to get my other patch in first
21:18 drojf so i have actually done someting ;)
21:18 cait heh
21:18 cait don't worry about that
21:18 cait you already did something
21:20 drojf heh that is just a blatant scheme to get somebody to look at bug 8377 :D
21:20 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8377 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, 5p4m, Needs Signoff , Show HTML5 video/ audio in OPAC for media files in 856
21:20 drojf also i wonder how i would make it not call me 5p4m without changing my email address
21:21 cait I suspected it :P
21:21 cait hm, you can't probably
21:21 rangi drojf: git or bugzilla?
21:22 drojf rangi: i thought that huginn gets that from bugzilla
21:23 rangi bugzilla has your real name
21:23 drojf if that is something in git i should change it myyelf of course
21:23 drojf yes
21:23 drojf that is why i am confused
21:23 rangi hmm not sure lemme try something
21:24 drojf but i entered the bug in bugzilla first. and the info huginn gives is not from a patch. so i assume it just uses whatever is before the @ in my email address?
21:24 cait drojf: your author line looks nice in the patch
21:24 cait drojf: that was my guess
21:24 rangi bug 6679
21:24 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6679 minor, P1 - high, ---, chris, Needs Signoff , Fixing code so it passes basic Perl::Critic tests
21:25 rangi hmm yeah its just not taking the real name field
21:25 rangi looks like huginn needs a fix
21:28 drojf i think i have a "too much information" problem in my bug description. because the crazy things from the rfc are not part of the patch now, it's just basic functionality plus a little extra. but for a person that does not live inside my head it looks like a lot more has to be considered
21:29 cait drojf: step by step test plan on the bug? :)
21:29 drojf there is one
21:29 drojf its just a little above
21:30 drojf i made that manually and not in the patch, that was no great idea
21:30 cait don't worry so much
21:34 rangi ill try to test tonight when the kids are asleep
21:34 rangi drojf: have you see magnuse's semantikoha ?
21:35 rangi combine that with html5 and the koha opac would be one of a kind
21:35 cait true :)
21:41 drojf rangi: that looks very interesting actually :)
21:41 drojf also it reminds me that he had some bug where he asked about html5 and said it would be too early?! i think about maps
21:43 rangi i think if it degraded
21:43 rangi then would be fine
22:04 ropuch Good night
22:04 cait night :)
22:05 rangi cya ropuch
22:06 mtj morning #koha
22:06 mtj rangi: do you know anyone that uses a before/after perlcritic check on commits for qa?
22:07 rangi i run the t/00-perlcritic.t
22:07 mtj something like Test::Perl::Critic::Progressive
22:07 rangi nope
22:07 rangi its not actually a requirement yet
22:08 rangi if you introduce one into a file thats clean, thats bad, if you dont fix some that already exist i dont think thats a qa fail
22:09 rangi so getting all files clean is something that people can work on, but carefully, we have busted functionality cleaning code before
22:09 rangi and thats a particularly horrible thing to do
22:09 rangi no regressions beats 'clean' code imho
22:09 mtj sure, i agree
22:09 rangi so we have to make sure we dont give passing the perlcritic tests to high a priority
22:10 cait yeah
22:10 cait please don't break things!
22:10 mtj test::Perl::Critic::Progressive seems like a win
22:10 rangi yep
22:11 mtj it will test your modded files before the commit, and then after too...
22:11 rangi also, fixes for critic gripes (which dont actually break anything)
22:11 rangi should be sep to functional changes
22:11 rangi so that the actual change can be seen
22:11 mtj agreed :)
22:12 rangi i think that the perlcritic bug is a good place to keep adding them to
22:13 mtj im gonna write a perlcritic qa script, to spot newly introduced perlcritic errors for a commit
22:13 rangi cool
22:14 cait :)
22:14 rangi i think a nice thing to do to ease into it, is if you find some, write a quick follow up
22:14 rangi as a teaching tool
22:14 mtj i thought i might just check that no-one else has that already
22:14 rangi then people will learn how to fix them
22:15 mtj yep, thats a nice idea, rather than just fixing them myself
22:15 rangi *nod*
22:15 mtj hi cait :)
22:16 cait hi mtj :)
22:16 jcamins mtj: I would love a script like that.
22:17 mtj yeah, if wanted it for a while now, too...
22:17 mtj s/if/ive/
22:19 jcamins Wow... a 23" monitor running at full resolution is really a wonderful thing.
22:19 mtj i want a qa script that does 3 things for a commit ...
22:19 mtj checks for new perlcritic errors, 'perl -c' syntax errors, and t::t errors
22:19 jcamins Good idea.
22:19 rangi yep
22:19 jcamins I want a script that runs perl -c on all .pl files.
22:20 jcamins I can't figure out how to do that.
22:20 rangi find file
22:20 jcamins rangi: has pointed me at examples at several times, but it never seems to work.
22:20 rangi and then system() it
22:20 jcamins Sorry, not a script. A test.
22:21 mtj a test script? :)
22:21 rangi tests are scripts
22:21 jcamins Yeah, but one that doesn't make prove angry even when it passes.
22:23 jcamins (mtj: watch, rangi is going to say this is easy)
22:23 rangi ok(system(perl -c file));
22:23 jcamins ... can I really do that?
22:24 jcamins Cool.
22:24 jcamins That I could manage.
22:24 mtj can we start a koha-qa-tool repo on git.k c.org?
22:24 jcamins mtj: there's release-tools.
22:24 jcamins I have to talk to gmcharlt about getting push access to that.
22:24 rangi The return value is the exit status of the program as returned by the wait call.
22:24 rangi so yep it should work
22:25 rangi give it a try
22:25 jcamins rangi: thanks.
22:25 jcamins I would like to have a set of WWW::Mechanize regression tests that are not in the main Koha repo.
22:26 rangi hmm maybe not it returns this
22:26 rangi mainpage.pl syntax OK
22:26 rangi so
22:27 jcamins system("perl -c $file") =~ m/syntax OK/ maybe?
22:28 rangi something yeah that oughta do it something like that
22:28 jcamins mtj: see, if we did that, we could do really sophisticated things like run the test against a known good version and then compare the results to the new version.
22:29 mtj that == www::mech tests?
22:29 rangi ahhh
22:29 jcamins mtj: that == separate repo
22:29 rangi 0 = pass
22:29 rangi 1 = fail
22:29 rangi got: '0'
22:29 rangi so
22:30 rangi perl -e 'use Test::More; ok(!system("perl -c mainpage.pl"))'
22:30 mtj hmm, why not in the main repo?
22:30 rangi ok 1
22:31 jcamins mtj: because then we have to have the tests in for the known good versions.
22:31 rangi which makes sense. perl -c passes if nothing is wrong so 0 exit state
22:31 mtj rangi++ awesome :)
22:33 rangi so if you look at t/00-load.t
22:33 rangi for how to use File::Spec and File::Find
22:33 rangi should be able to do it like that
22:33 jcamins Yeah, that's the one I just copied.
22:36 jcamins Yup, that worked.
22:36 jcamins Only one problem... it only checks files with the .pl extension.
22:38 rangi i think you could run 2 loops
22:39 rangi like it does, one for .pm too
22:39 rangi althought load.t catches those
22:39 jcamins Right. But there are also Perl scripts with no extension.
22:40 rangi ah yep, you might have to spec them manually, and/or fix that :)
22:40 jcamins Need some interface to file...
22:40 rangi ie make a an array of their names, (or just give them .pl)
22:42 rangi probably worth checking why we do that, and if we need to anyway?
22:42 jcamins Yeah, that's the option I'm going to go with.
22:42 jcamins We need to in /svc, I think.
22:42 jcamins Not elsewhere.
22:42 rangi hmm true
22:42 jcamins Hey!
22:42 rangi well we could do Alias /svc/clown /svc/clown.pl
22:42 jcamins Rewrite rules!
22:42 rangi yeah or that
22:43 jcamins /svc/*.pl -> /svc/*
22:43 rangi yep
22:43 rangi alias is a little faster
22:43 rangi but you cant shortcut like that
22:43 rangi so rewite wins
22:44 rangi rewrite too
22:47 rangi ok walking 2 five year olds down the hill to the movie theatre
22:48 rangi bbl, hopefully :)
23:22 jcamins Oh, cool!
23:23 jcamins Test::Strict does this automatically.
