On my to-do list is putting chef into production. 01:19 rangi Provide a data dictionary which allows searches on symbols to be recognised as words (e.g ampersands (&) and hyphens) 01:19 rangi do we need to do that? 01:20 rangi they are search as words by default eh? 01:20 jcamins rangi: huh? 01:20 jcamins Oh. 01:21 jcamins No, Koha doesn't do that. 01:21 rangi from a requirements spec 01:21 rangi ta 02:33 * chris_n steps off of the software raid roller-coaster and tries to figure out which way is up 02:53 chobbs Hi #koha! Any way to hide patron address info from certain staff? I need a solution between self check-out and staff check out to allow volunteers to help circulate. 02:53 chobbs Hi #koha! Any way to hide patron address info from certain staff? I need a solution between self check-out and staff check out to allow volunteers to help circulate. 02:53 chobbs Ah jeez, sorry for the double post :( 02:54 rangi nope, you'd have to write that, or find someone to do that for yoou 02:55 chobbs Figured it was a long shot :) 02:59 rangi one of these days, when i invent a time machine, i am going to go back and find who invented RFPs and stab them with a rock 03:02 wajasu so if i want someone to decide whether to keep smsoverdues.pl and rss.pl, or actually fix the existing tests at the nexy meeting(8th i think), how do i suggest that be put on the agenda? an email mailing list? 03:02 rangi thats not really a meeting topic 03:03 rangi the koha-devel mailing list is the best place for that 03:07 wajasu rangi: the other db-dep tests that failed. one was Serials.t and I was trying to look at related commits. Like if a coumn was added to a schema or EAN related commits. then it might show what changed to break it. 03:07 wajasu are you familiar with that test? 03:07 rangi nope 03:08 wajasu when was the last time all the db-dep test passed? a release? 03:08 rangi they all pass on jenkins right now 03:08 rangi for 3.8.x and 3.6.x branches 03:09 rangi most likely you are missing data in your db for Serials.t 03:09 wajasu well i must have a bad test setup. maybe i need the test data from wizzyrea. 03:09 rangi yep, all 34 tests pass currently for Serials.t on jenkins 03:10 wajasu does jenkins load test data, then updatedatebase.pl then run em? 03:10 rangi it just runs updatedatabase.pl it has all the test data in it already 03:12 wajasu so i should be able to pull master fresh, do dev install, run webinstaller with all data options selected, then run prove t/db_dependent without loading test data? 03:13 wajasu jaca and wizzyrea were saying otherwise yesterday. Reserve.t would fail, because there wasn't a biblio inthe db, etc. 03:19 rangi try it and see, you probably need to create at least one biblio and one item 03:19 wajasu http://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_master/810/console cearch for Serials.t 03:20 wajasu i did create a biblio and it worked. but you must have loaded one before the jenkins test run. 03:21 rangi you answered your own question then 03:23 wajasu so i just wonder if you had a test data load that is in git master that is run on a db install, or are you just running the updatedabase before each test run on the same database? 03:23 rangi the latter 03:23 rangi 15:08 <@rangi> it just runs updatedatabase.pl it has all the test data in it already 03:24 wajasu oh. thx for your patience :) 03:24 rangi no worries, i have less of it today than usual 03:25 rangi as im having to answer 107 pages of questions in an RFP 04:38 Oak Ahoy me hearties :) 04:38 Oak magnuse 04:38 Oak cait o/ 04:39 cait hi Oak :) 04:39 Oak how long before the meeting starts? 04:39 Oak in hour 04:39 Oak s 04:40 cait hm 04:40 cait not sure 04:40 cait many 04:40 Oak okay cool 04:40 cait I am not good with time zones 04:41 Oak me also 04:41 Oak 'not good' would be an understatement fo me though 04:58 Oak i meant you may be not good, but i'm worse... for example i just googled what utc means. 04:59 Oak this looks fun: http://nicolargo.github.com/glances/ 05:29 Oak Ahoy mtompset 05:29 mtompset Greetings, #koha -- Oak :) 05:29 Oak :) 05:30 mtompset Do you have have reverse proxy setup experience with redis and/or node.js? 05:30 mtompset have have -> have any 05:30 Oak nope 05:39 magnuse Oak 05:39 Oak \o/ 05:39 Oak present 05:39 magnuse :-) 05:40 magnuse Oak: te meeting is in 12 hours and ~20 minutes, as far as i can tell 05:41 Oak ah... roger that. 05:41 Oak ten four 05:55 halcyonCorsair hmm, the install doesn't seem to be obeying the WEBSERVER_IP variable...thoughts? 05:59 mtompset WEBSERVER_IP variable? 05:59 mtompset What file is that in? 06:00 mtompset What file is that in, halcyonCorsair? 06:01 halcyonCorsair mtompset: gets used by koha-http.conf 06:01 halcyonCorsair umm, rewrite-something.PL 06:01 mtompset Are you doing a tarball or a git install? 06:02 halcyonCorsair git install 06:02 mtompset What do you mean doesn't seem to be obeying? 06:03 mtompset you've run the perl Makefile.PL 06:03 mtompset you've run the make 06:03 mtompset have you run the make test? 06:03 mtompset have you run the make install? 06:04 mtompset Because once you have the install... that's when the variable should be changed to the value you are expecting. 06:05 mtompset You don't need to edit any files between these four steps (perl Makefile.PL, make, make test, make install) 06:06 halcyonCorsair mtompset: i'm talking about setting the environment variable 06:07 mtompset I know, but I'm trying to understand why you are looking at that variable. 06:08 mtompset And why do you expect Koha to know about it? 06:08 halcyonCorsair i expect one of those four steps to use that variable to create the http config correctly 06:08 mtompset I was convering the case that you were referring to something else. 06:08 halcyonCorsair mtompset: ^ 06:09 mtompset Uh, no. 06:09 mtompset I do not believe it does. 06:10 mtompset During a tarball, git install, you end up editing the apache config file that is generated. 06:14 halcyonCorsair no, rewrite-config.PL definitely uses it 06:21 koyauni hi guys, how can one create additional normal Admin, I want my system to have one Super Admin and many normal Admin with limited permissions 06:28 magnuse koyauni: PAtrons > New patron > Staff 06:29 magnuse koyauni: then, when you have added a user, you click More > Set permissions 06:29 magnuse then you can choose what each user is allowed to do 06:32 cait halcyonCorsair: maybe you are looking at the wrong file? 06:32 cait halcyonCorsair: did you do a git dev or standard install? if you did adev, there is a generated file in koha-dev directory, so outside of the git controlled part 06:34 halcyonCorsair mmm, no...i *think* the issue is that the environment isn't correct when make, etc are getting run 06:43 reiveune hello 06:43 wahanui hey, reiveune 06:46 koyauni Thanks I found an old help page saying the same thing, thank you anyway, 06:48 cait bbl 06:50 koyauni http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2008-January/012973.html 06:53 francharb hello #koha 07:02 matts hi ! 07:19 gaetan_B hello 07:19 kf hi gaetan_B 07:20 kf good morning #koha 07:21 Dan_T whois Dan_T 07:22 Dan_T oh right...

I'll have a new patch ready in moments, just adding some POD 12:58 jcamins_away magnuse, tcohen, and kmkale are all working on the problem. 12:58 jcamins_away Though, kmkale hasn't been doing anything with Koha in the last six months. 12:58 oleonard eythian: Do you observe something different? 12:58 Oak jcamins_away, does not that result in multiple images appearing for a single item? if there are multiple sources available... 12:58 jcamins_away Oak: yes, of course. 12:59 jcamins_away That's why it's a problem. ;) 12:59 eythian we have another cover source to add, and would need to make them behave so that only one shows 12:59 Oak that's bad 12:59 Oak ah yes 12:59 Oak got it 12:59 jcamins_away And not just a happy little accident. 12:59 eythian I thought I had seen it behave differently 12:59 eythian But I may be wrong 12:59 magnuse yeah, currently you get multiple covers if you turn on multiple sources and more then one gives a hit 13:00 Oak i wish there could be a way to check if result of one source is True, then a all other sources ignored. 13:00 oleonard eythian: Not unless you saw an unintended behavior 13:00 magnuse i am thinking of solving it server-side - have a script that accepts a biblionumber and that returns/redirects to the first image found. with caching 13:00 oleonard I imagine that an AJAX script could roll through each source and stop on first success 13:01 Oak or if two sources have the images, then the one with bigger dimensions gets chosen automatically :) 13:01 jcamins_away magnuse: the problem with that is Amazon. :( 13:01 kf *sigh* 13:01 oleonard magnuse: Caching results violates Amazon's terms of service I think 13:01 kf I know I had a checklist for opac features somewhere... 13:01 magnuse Oak: yeah, that is an interesting twist on it 13:01 oleonard Maybe Google's too 13:01 eythian oleonard: you can cache the success of the request 13:01 magnuse aren't we throwing out amazon? 13:01 * kf blames eythian (habit) 13:01 kf nah, not really... *continues search* 13:01 magnuse eythian: yeah, that might be what i was thinking 13:02 oleonard magnuse: We haven't thrown out Amazon covers yet because they don't require the API 13:02 magnuse ah yes 13:02 jcamins_away magnuse: not yes. 13:02 magnuse cache the others and check amazon last, then 13:02 magnuse kf: search for what? 13:02 kf for my missing document :) 13:03 jcamins_away magnuse: ooh, that makes sense. 13:03 jcamins_away search for something? 13:03 magnuse bug 7187 13:03 oleonard You guys, you're making wahanui pass out 13:03 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7187 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kmkale, NEW , Prioritize cover image sources such as Amazon, Google and add fail over i.e. if first source fails, go to next 13:05 eythian hmm, wahanui needs some reconnection logic, he gets banned for reconnecting too fast. 13:05 jcamins_away Is there anything I need to say about 3.6.x beyond what I already said? 13:05 jcamins_away eythian: if he didn't whenever anyone said "change" or "search," that'd help. :P 13:05 eythian yes, that too :) 13:05 jcamins_away On schedule, new sacrificial lamb found... 13:06 Oak let's have a bar-b-q 13:06 eythian huh, he also has a 60MB log of the channel 13:06 magnuse yeah, sacrificial lamb is yummy! 13:06 magnuse with lots of garlic and rosemary! 13:07 Oak :) 13:10 mveron Hi #koha 13:11 drojf hi mveron 13:11 mveron ...and many thanks to paul_p for pushing my age restriction :-) 13:12 mveron hi drojf 13:13 mveron @wunder Basel 13:13 drojf don't want to spam the channel with off topic links again, but rap news 15 is awesome! 13:13 huginn mveron: The current temperature in Basel, Switzerland is 24.0°C (3:00 PM CEST on September 05, 2012).

I know) 13:19 drojf kf: i will have a look at what they did in earlier conferences to get an idea maybe 13:19 kf I did a presentation on Koha when the conf was in Zürich 13:20 kf I think 2 years ago? 13:20 kf not sure we matched the cfp back then :) 13:20 drojf heh 13:22 nengard I got this question and I think the answer is yes ? but I don't know what the limit is "is there a limit to the overall size of a MARC record within Koha?" 13:24 eythian nengard: 99,999 characters 13:24 eythian that's a limit to the ISO MARC format 13:24 nengard thank you! 13:25 drojf kf: it would be nice if that conference was half a year later. when we are live and can actually think about doing internetty things to our library 13:26 eythian nengard: as an aside, that value exposes one of the multitude of things wrong with the MARC format :) 13:27 nengard you'll get no argument from me there!! 13:27 nengard :) 13:27 nengard i saw an email on the list artives that says 9999 ? do you have a typo or was that a typo? 13:27 nengard archives 13:27 druthb That was the typo. It's 100,000 minus 1. 13:27 eythian I think it's bigger than 10k 13:28 eythian yeah 13:28 eythian 5 character field for the size 13:29 eythian wholly chao, it costs CHF58,00 to buy the ISO2709:2008 spec. 13:29 eythian also ha ha 2008, 1965 more like 13:33 mbalmer hallo mveron! 13:33 mveron hallo mbalmer... 13:36 kf eythian: why do you want to pay in CHF? 13:36 drojf kf: found your talk. "koha in action" :D 13:36 * kf hides 13:36 eythian kf: I don't 13:36 eythian It's just what it offered 13:36 kf Interesting 13:36 wahanui i think Interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 13:36 eythian I think that the ISO is based in .ch 13:41 magnuse the price is yet another reason to get rid of the marc formats... 13:41 eythian hmm, searching for something with '&' in it doesn't work well at all. 13:42 nengard i think there is a bug for that already 13:43 magnuse is C4::Biblio::GetMarcISBN really the best way to get ISBNs out of records in Koha? it seems to be returning things like "91-0-010573-2 9100105732 (inb.)" 13:44 druthb If you're looking for just the ISBN, what I usually do, magnuse, is GetMarcBiblio, then grab the 020$a, and pump it into Business::ISBN, so I can do useful things with it. 13:44 gmcharlt indeed 13:44 gmcharlt good morning 13:44 druthb hi, gmcharlt. 13:44 druthb :) 13:45 gmcharlt hi druthb 13:47 magnuse hm, there is GetNormalizedISBN too, which lives in C4/Koha of all places... 13:47 druthb magnuse: For the data mashing I do, I treat the marc as the official, authoritative source, and utterly ignore all the database fields that (are supposed to) duplicate those, or any subroutine in Koha that uses those. 13:48 druthb That is not always the easiest way to do things, but my confidence in the quality of the data is much, much higher. 13:49 eythian druthb: yeah, I do the same there 13:49 magnuse GetNormalizedISBN get's it from the marc, unless you give it a value from biblioitems.isbn to clean up 13:50 druthb eythian: Your csvtomarc is freakin' brilliant; I came up with a minor mod that made it do what I wanted in one odd case--I'll turn that into a patch for you at some point, after I figure out how to describe the use case precisely. 13:50 eythian druthb: awesome :) 13:51 eythian druthb: most of that script is handling odd cases 13:52 druthb Was a wierd case of turning something non-MARC-ish (a marriage record) into a MARC, just to make it searchable. I had BRIDE NAME, BRIDE DATE OF BIRTH, GROOM NAME, GROOM DATE OF BIRTH, and wanted to turn it into two 600 fields, with different $e, and name in $a and dates in $d. 13:54 druthb Since the mappings are handled in the order they are given, it makes sense to me that if you're doing multiples of something--which it did know how to do--you should look at the *last* one of those created, to see whether to add a subfield or create a new field, but the script was looking at the *first*. I fixed. 13:54 druthb It was doing 600 $aJohn Doe$egroom$dJune 8, 1968 600 $aJane Smith 600 $ebride 600 $d July 19,1969. Now it does what I expected. :) 13:56 eythian ah yes, I see 13:56 eythian that does make sense 13:58 druthb That one had me bedeviled for a while. You don't organise your code the same way I do, so it took me a while to trace down where to fix that. 13:59 druthb That's a *very large* bit of brilliance. 14:00 eythian heh yeah, it's become quite bloated beyond its initial intentions. 14:00 eythian it's also not really organised. 14:00 eythian If I knew it was going to swell like that, I would have split it into modules 14:01 * druthb is debating a refactoring of it, along with adding a few tricks of her own, based on things she's doing in her assortment of MARC mashers. 14:02 * magnuse cheers druthb on 14:02 druthb I haven't worked with it in concert with a running Koha; I use it in isolation--grab CSV, make MARC, and use marc: and multimarc: mappings rather than fieldname maps. 14:04 druthb Don't want to step on eythian's toes, magnuse. I outmass him by a bit, and that would hurt a bit. :) 14:05 eythian druthb: I tend to work the same way too, the first time I wrote it I used fieldnames a lot, but now almost never. 14:05 mtompset Greetings, #koha. 14:05 eythian refactoring would not be a bad thing at all. 14:05 mtompset Greetings, eythian. Got the proxy settings all nicely sorted out. :) 14:05 eythian mtompset: awesomecross 14:06 mtompset It was the short name vs. long name. 14:06 eythian thought as much 14:07 druthb :) I'll take a look at possibilities for refactoring, eythian...might be able to modularise some of that, along with some of my stuff, and finally get the migration toolkit started, instead of the disorganized cluttery mess I have on gitorious. 14:07 eythian that's a good plan 14:08 mtompset What is the role of "Bug Wrangler"? 14:12 oleonard mtompset: Test patches, review bug reports, confirm bugs, correct bug details, correct assignment, anything else they can think of? 14:13 mtompset libsysguy++ # Yes, yes writing documentation is exactly like having one's fingernails pulled off. 14:14 nengard i disagree 14:14 nengard i like writing documentation :) 14:15 oleonard Thank goodness for us nengard! 14:15 magnuse nengard++ 14:15 oleonard nengard++ 14:15 nengard :) 14:15 nengard hehe 14:15 gmcharlt nengard++ 14:15 kf nengard++ 14:15 mtompset nengard++ 14:16 nengard oooo boy :) 14:16 mtompset For a developer. :) 14:16 * nengard is blushing 14:17 kf nengard: and i got a queston :) 14:17 nengard okay? 14:17 kf do we have a description of easyanalytics somewhere? :) 14:17 kf I found the Add host item in the manual, now I am looking for the easyanalytics feature 14:18 * druthb reaches for the Velcro. 14:18 nengard I have a question too ? can anyone help me with this? http://lists.katipo.co.nz/pipermail/koha/2012-August/034028.html 14:18 nengard kf yes, let me find it 14:18 nengard http://manual.koha-community.org/3.8/en/cataloging.html#cataloganalytics 14:18 nengard now, I think there is a problem with the wording, it's a bit confusing 14:19 jenkins_koha Project Koha_master build #813: STILL UNSTABLE in 2 hr 18 min: http://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_master/813/ 14:19 jenkins_koha * jcamins: Bug 8622: Fix theme fallback 14:19 jenkins_koha * jcamins: Bug 8623: Do not accept "lib" as a valid theme 14:19 jenkins_koha * jcamins: Bug 8623: Move YUI out of prog 14:19 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8622 major, P3, ---, jcamins, Pushed to Master , Koha themes broken 14:19 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8623 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Pushed to Master , Javascript libraries should be outside theme directories 14:19 kf hm I found that 14:19 kf but that works without easyanalyticstoo 14:20 kf aaah 14:20 kf no 14:20 kf I got my mistake 14:20 kf there is something new now 14:20 kf where you can add a child record 14:20 jenkins_koha Starting build #814 for job Koha_master (previous build: STILL UNSTABLE -- last SUCCESS #773 2 mo 2 days ago) 14:20 kf and that is child to parent 14:21 oleonard What frequency do folks set up their process_message_queue with? 14:21 nengard hourly 14:21 kf same here I think 14:21 oleonard That could be a problem for patron self-registration 14:22 nengard oh! 14:22 nengard hmmmm 14:22 oleonard People are going to expect their confirmation email right away 14:22 nengard good point 14:22 nengard khall would know best 14:22 khall I had thought about that. We need some kind of "send immediately" sub 14:23 wizzyrea don't the hold notices go immediately 14:23 eythian 15 minutes for the packages 14:23 wizzyrea or… the checkin notices 14:23 wizzyrea one of them goes right away 14:23 eythian We need to use real queue systems, not cron jobs 14:23 khall wizzyrea, thanks, I'll look at the code. 14:23 eythian everything needs to send email the same way, but we need to improve how it gets sent. 14:23 wizzyrea ^^ but this 14:24 wajasu ^^ yup 14:24 eythian also we could do smart things like having them run over a network, so you could have a zebra reindexing machine, and a mail processing machine 14:26 wajasu generic message notification with various transports decouples(sms, email, etc) an ESB of sorts to decouple. 14:27 * magnuse starts to make some notes on http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Covers_from_multiple_sources_RFC 14:27 khall CHECKOUT notices use the message queue 14:27 eythian password notifications don't, and there's something else that doesn't 14:27 eythian maybe it was sending lists or something 14:29 rambutan Has anyone looked at what it would take for Koha to have the hooks to services like Dwolla? http://dwolla.com http://developers.dwolla.com/dev 14:30 rambutan Seems like I remember somebody (rangi?) mentioning it a long time ago. 14:30 eythian rambutan: hooks to do what? 14:31 oleonard eythian: Sending lists and sending carts 14:31 rambutan OK, a patron has fines or a bill, so you have a button in Koha "Pay amount with Dwolla" and Koha accesses the Dwolla API to process the fine, and when completed Koha credits their account with the payment 14:31 eythian ah yes 14:32 kf claims is also another example I think 14:32 eythian rambutan: oh, good idea. I haven't heard of it, doesn't mean someone hasn't put thought into it though 14:32 kf or some of the claims, but possible it changed with the recent owrk from biblibre :) 14:32 kf claims got redone mostly 14:32 nengard you can't have the checkouts or checkins go immediately cause they might be digested so you need a bit of time between checkin and email sending 14:33 nengard which someone might have said 14:35 huginn New commit(s) kohagit: Bug 6617 - Wrong first indicator value in test <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=ea5c5bf3b4e78d51cc6e3b82f3247906b222a8fd> / Bug 6617: Improve MARC21 enhanced contents display (intranet) <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=4a8e71ea93f577403e77cce695a1e00ce9b99e76> / Bug 6617: Improve MARC21 enhanced contents display <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git 14:35 wajasu looking t t/db_dependent/Reserves.t AddReserve call is missing resdate and expdate in call.

OK 15:11 mbalmer well, not for Koha, obviously. 15:11 gmcharlt still, half the battle 15:11 rambutan Since very few patrons would have any given service though, to make it worth coding you'd probably have to find the top five services and hook them all in. 15:12 mbalmer saferpay is a well established service and paypal could also be intregated quite easily 15:13 jcamins It seems to me any secure service that allows one-off CC payments would cover the vast majority of uses. 15:13 mbalmer imo, most patrons likely prefer to pay on the spot, aka in the library 15:13 jcamins Right, vast majority of uses of an online payment system, not vast majority of fine payments. 15:14 jcamins The situation changes in an academic institution, of course, where students might want to use their student account card to pay fines. 15:15 Oak logs? 15:15 wahanui logs is http://irc.koha-community.org/irclog/koha/ 15:18 Oak may I ask something stupid? 15:19 wizzyrea @quote search ask 15:19 huginn wizzyrea: 9 found: #117: "<druthb> basking ?

Is there a work around to do this in Koha? 19:16 karra ur welcome, :) 19:17 cait gbengaadara: i think currently not - I think someone had an alternative fines script doing that, but it's not in koha 19:18 thd nengard: Is this strictly a friendly interface functionality issue where the HTML form is not created? 19:18 nengard well i understand the html form not being created with that many titles, but the option to delete the bibs should still be there 19:18 nengard so it's not design issue 19:19 thd nengard: I am confused about your last sentence. 19:19 gbengaadara cait: Thanks. Any advice on how i can track the script down 19:19 thd nengard: Are you saying that a low level delete of over 1000 records would work fine but the friendly form would not appear? 19:19 cait gbengaadara: i think a mail to the mailing list may make it show up perhaps 19:20 nengard it's not an interface functionality issue like you said - it's a missing feature ? if there are 999 titles you can delete the bibs as well, but if there are 1000+ you can't delete the bib records 19:20 cait gbengaadara: it was a while ago, not sure who it was and if it will work on current version 19:20 gbengaadara cait: ok. will try that 19:20 thd nengard: OK, thanks for the clarification. 19:21 thd nengard: My experiments have only involved smaller numbers of records and when I delete I usually purge everything. 19:21 nengard yup 19:23 * thd does laundry and prays that headache inducing summer weather ends today. 19:23 karra Hey, listen, Another thing. Are there any opac searchable fields in Serial Item records? 19:23 cait karra: sorry, I don#t understand it :( can you give a use case? 19:24 karra Serial collection has, items. 19:24 karra and they have notes 19:24 karra But not to search by patrons? 19:24 karra ok? 19:24 karra :) 19:25 * drojf still has not touched serials in koha 19:25 drojf so no idea from me 19:26 karra As I have item 2011/22 there http://hailuoto.virtuaalitehdas.fi/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=2&viewallitems=1#holdings 19:26 karra with a note, but it or likes of it do not get found. 19:26 karra Can it be worked somehow? 19:26 cait karra: it depends, if its real items they are searchable ai think or you could make them searchable 19:26 cait but not the fields from the subscriptions 19:27 karra ok? but.. 19:27 karra from.. 19:27 karra THis is an item note, yess?? 19:29 karra Further, the selfbrowsing w serials is of no use... :( --> http://hailuoto.virtuaalitehdas.fi/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=2&shelfbrowse_itemnumber=306#shelfbrowser 19:30 karra So, cait, they are real items, but can serach find the items notes, its not a big deal, but interests me:)) 19:31 cait I don't know without testing 19:31 cait but the items information is in th emarc 19:31 cait so you could index it easily if it was not searchable 19:31 karra Ok, thanks. 19:31 cait subscription information is in the database - that wouldn't work so easy 19:32 karra But all in all, it is easily imaginable that you had a issue of a serial with important articles. 19:33 karra How do I make a working note of the content, related to the item/issue. (sorry I have not read all the manual yet..):) 19:33 cait you coudl do analytics records for those articles 19:33 cait or put them in th enotes 19:33 karra hey, im only a librarian.. :D 19:34 cait but koha doesn't support that structure right now serial - issue -analytic (article) 19:34 cait it would have to be serial - analytic 19:34 karra uuh, ok, i think i see. 19:34 jcamins cait: one should never create individual bibs for each issue. 19:34 cait or you could use the notes maybe, but formatting would get a bit messy 19:35 * jcamins would use analytics. 19:35 cait jcamins: makes sense to me 19:35 karra or i should catalouge my valuables... :) 19:36 karra I mean remarkable issues separately, 19:36 jcamins karra: no, that's not such a good idea. 19:37 pikin can i install koha on my corei3 window 7 pc? 19:37 jcamins pikin: only by installing Linux in a virtual machine. 19:37 pikin how 19:37 karra thanks jcamins yeaa, i know, im just helping myself. bc items do not.. 19:38 jcamins I have terrible lag. 19:38 jcamins Typing is very slow. 19:38 pikin sori 19:38 jcamins karra: if the issues do not have separate titles, you will just end up with a lot of records for the same thing. 19:38 jcamins If they have separate titles, treat them as a monographic series, and give each issue a record. 19:39 jcamins pikin: I can't explain setting up Koha on a VM for you. It's somewhat complicated, and the work I'm getting paid for comes first. 19:39 pikin k i understand tnx. 19:40 mbalmer get vmware workstation, install debian squeeze, follow the instructions on the koha-community wiki. 19:40 mbalmer invest an afternoon, I'd say. and you, pikin, get an Koha up and running 19:40 karra The real life here is that I have a copy of a cartoon serial w dialect special issue. Just one. And I can not catalogue it as a serial issue for patrons to find. 19:41 jcamins karra: ohhh. Special issues. 19:41 pikin tnx man 19:41 * jcamins thought you meant "regular issue that you consider special." 19:41 karra Golden!:) 19:41 wajasu jcamins: is karra trying to categorize valuables issues for circulation purposes? what about a koha item_type? 19:42 rangi I think that is a new record, kids fed, dressed, lunches made and on the bus in 46 minutes 19:42 jcamins karra: in this case, you can do an *issue* analytic and add 773/775s. 19:43 cait rangi: yay :) 19:43 wajasu sweet 19:43 karra jcamins: Oookei, thanks, Ill ask by tech buddy what that means. :) )) 19:44 jcamins karra: it's a librarian thing. 19:44 jcamins It's going to make less sense to a tech. ;) 19:44 jcamins You use NORMARC/MARC21, yes? 19:44 karra marc21 19:44 jcamins Good. 19:44 rangi Where is karra from? 19:44 jcamins NORMARC is crazy. 19:44 karra scares me to chance issue item type to book 19:44 karra Finnboy 19:45 karra Finland. 19:45 mbalmer MARC is fun, actually…. 19:45 drojf jcamins: is NORMARC very different from MARC21? 19:45 jcamins drojf: no. 19:45 jcamins Almost the same. 19:45 mbalmer long live ISO 2709… (not) 19:45 drojf i assumed it wouldn't 19:45 drojf okay 19:45 jcamins Having it at all is crazy. 19:45 karra (but why marc, for how long) :) 19:45 drojf ah. yes 19:45 jcamins karra: you receive the special issue as usual. 19:45 jcamins To record it received. 19:46 jcamins Then, you create a new record for your special issue. 19:46 karra ok. 19:46 mveron Good night #koha 19:46 jcamins Give it a 773 referring to the serial record. 19:46 jcamins Then add a 775 to the serial record, pointing at the new issue record. 19:46 jcamins Basically what you suggested originally, but I objected to because I didn't realize you meant special issue (and not "issue that is special"). 19:47 karra Okei. .. hrm, actually I thought i meant issue that is special. 19:47 karra :) but im fine here, perfect! to have you with this.. 19:48 jcamins A dialect issue is a "special issue." An issue which happens to have an article by your favorite author is an issue that is special. ;) 19:48 karra jcamins, thanks, good stuff, but I doubt I lone public librarian shall take on your advice. 19:49 karra actuqally the issue has a dialect appendix.. :)) bound.. 19:49 mbalmer amazing how many museums also have libraries of a kind... 19:49 jcamins karra: it's easy. :) 19:51 mbalmer slowly time to pull out, switzerland is dark... 19:51 jcamins mbalmer: probably most museums. 19:51 cait night mbalmer 19:51 jenkins_koha Project Koha_master build #817: STILL UNSTABLE in 1 hr 8 min: http://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_master/817/ 19:52 mbalmer jcamins, yes, it interesting, since I am doing museum stuff, and this might open doors... 19:52 karra But this is academic question now, since my public library has Donald Duck cartoon extra leaflet moded in local finnish dialects- And I am happy to use IRC for the first time in my life. Thanks for your time. 19:54 karra We have one Koha museum in Finland, btw, 19:56 mbalmer I hope to get some jump on the train in .ch…. 20:05 rangi My stop bbiab 20:05 drojf mbalmer: will you be doing a general koha talk in konstanz? 20:06 mbalmer yes, I hope so. 20:06 drojf nice 20:07 mbalmer it will have nothing to do with my other involvement in switzerland, I plan to even mention BSZ as a "Koha company" 20:07 mbalmer (gives potential users a better feeling when they know there are several "companies" that can help them, and that will help koha to gain "market share"; I hope) 20:08 drojf mbalmer: yes, it seems not that many libraries are as adventurous as we are and just want to do it all themselves ;) 20:09 mbalmer but then your library can be happy to have someone like you... 20:09 jcamins drojf: thank goodness! :P 20:10 * mbalmer pulls out. gn8 20:10 drojf good night mbalmer 20:11 libsysguy anybody have any experience with t-prefixed barcodes 20:12 libsysguy I am writing the unit tests for C4::Circulation 20:12 libsysguy and I have no idea what is happening for the t-prefix filter 20:25 rangi back 20:25 wizzyrea wb 20:26 gmcharlt IE-- 20:26 gmcharlt IE-- 20:26 gmcharlt IE-- 20:26 trea ^^ 20:26 jcamins IE-- # it cannot be said enough 20:27 libsysguy codebase-- 20:27 libsysguy codebase-- 20:27 libsysguy documentation++ 20:27 libsysguy unit-tests++ 20:27 libsysguy that is all 20:28 cait IE-- 20:28 cait ie-- 20:29 drojf is that still a thing? 20:30 drojf @karma IE 20:30 huginn drojf: Karma for "IE" has been increased 0 times and decreased 50 times for a total karma of -50. 20:30 drojf lol 20:30 libsysguy @karma ie 20:30 huginn libsysguy: Karma for "ie" has been increased 0 times and decreased 50 times for a total karma of -50. 20:30 libsysguy i guess case doesn't matter 20:31 drojf in that case it doesn't 20:35 libsysguy @karma libsysguy 20:35 huginn libsysguy: Karma for "libsysguy" has been increased 28 times and decreased 0 times for a total karma of 28. 20:35 libsysguy @quote random 20:35 huginn libsysguy: Quote #28: "<owen> I'm glad munin doesn't follow me around all day remembering *everything* I say."

We aggregate professional critic reviews or editorial reviews from sources like nytimes to come up with a rating of high quality. We were wondering whether we could work with you guys to get our ratings incorporated into Koho 23:05 idreambooks yes, we use github 23:05 jcamins idreambooks: oh, did Greg Lawson contact you? 23:06 idreambooks We were contacted by Liz Rea about a month ago 23:06 idreambooks I just sent her an email too 23:06 jcamins Ah, nifty. Greg was talking about your site a few weeks ago. 23:06 rangi the first thing would be definitely filing an enhancement request at bugs.koha-community.org 23:07 idreambooks cool...yeah we'd love to work with you guys 23:07 jcamins Yes, definitely necessary to file the bug. 23:08 jcamins Ooh, you have more reviews now. 23:08 idreambooks yes we are adding more every day 23:08 idreambooks we want to be the go to place for book reviews like rottentomatoes is for movies 23:09 jcamins It's a very cool-looking site. :) 23:09 idreambooks ok...so i'll follow the steps you outlined: install koha, file a bug, write a patch and so on 23:09 idreambooks thanks! 23:10 idreambooks what is the difference between koha-community and liblime? 23:10 jcamins File the bug first. 23:10 jcamins koha-community.org is the website for an open source project. 23:10 jcamins LibLime is a company that forked the open source project a while ago. 23:10 rangi liblime forked from the community a while ago, they run their own project 23:11 rangi what he said :) 23:11 jenkins_koha Starting build #157 for job Koha_3.8.x (previous build: SUCCESS) 23:11 jcamins Their project is now closed source. 23:11 jcamins Well, one is, one isn't. I think. It's hard to know what exactly they're doing. 23:11 rangi or at least, sporadically, and not openly developed 23:11 rangi yeah its hard to know 23:12 jcamins Right. 23:12 idreambooks hmm...yeah their result shows up first on google and I thought I needed to get in touch with them. It was a bit confusing. Luckily found you guys through wikipedia :) 23:13 jcamins Unfortunately they own the koha.org domain. Long, unpleasant story. 23:13 rangi yeah, hopefully that google ranking will change, its improving all the time, the more people who talk about Koha (proper) and link to it etc help 23:13 jcamins You should put a sample of the API output on your API page. 23:14 idreambooks jcamins: if you click on the link in the grey box it will show you the output 23:14 jcamins Oh, so it will. I assumed that "example_key" would lead to a broken link. 23:15 rangi you know what they say about assume :) 23:15 jcamins Yes, I know. 23:15 idreambooks jcamins: hmm...maybe we should give it a separate section just to make it clear 23:15 jcamins I might be the only one who gets confused. 23:15 jcamins Then again, I might not. 23:16 jcamins If you already have Javascript that will process that, you could set up a mockup really quickly without modifying any of Koha's source code. 23:17 jcamins (it wouldn't be viable as a solution to the "let's integrate Koha and idreambooks.com" issue generally, but a screen capture of cool things you can do is never a bad idea) 23:18 jcamins There's a system preference that allows you to add arbitrary Javascript/jQuery to the OPAC, which is how I'd do the mockup. 23:20 idreambooks hmm... 23:21 rangi yeah if you had a snippet of jquery that would work with the api to insert pretty stuff into a div or span, we could do a mock up really fast 23:21 rangi http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=325# 23:22 rangi see the box on the right, with the print/add to cart 23:23 rangi a really simple thing to do would be to link to a review on idreamofbooks there, if there is a way to craft a url to get to a review 23:23 rangi eg if 23:23 rangi http://idreambooks.com/newbooks/259-Yoga-Cures 23:23 rangi was accessible as 23:23 rangi http://idreambooks.com/isbn_number_goes_here 23:24 rangi oh look there is :) 23:24 jcamins Ooh, I like the readometer thing. 23:24 jcamins *that* is what you should be embedding. 23:24 rangi hmm or not, there is a way to get the xml via the isbn 23:25 idreambooks yes...http://idreambooks.com/newbooks/api.xml?q=9781101475973&key=example_key 23:25 rangi yep, for the xml 23:25 idreambooks that will give you the rating, 5 snippets and a bit more info 23:25 rangi but is there a way to get to the html page 23:26 rangi given just an isbn ? 23:26 rangi im think could add a link in the more searches really easy for a start 23:26 rangi and that the rest, you would want to have a tab down by the holdings for probably 23:27 idreambooks yeah html via isbn is not present right now. we can add it though 23:27 rangi cool 23:27 jcamins rangi: definitely, but you could add the tab with jquery for a mockup. 23:27 rangi yep 23:28 jcamins You know what you need? The ability to get a readometer from the XML. 23:29 jcamins I don't think I see one. 23:29 idreambooks hmm...right now there is a way to embed the readometer anywhere through the "Embed Readometer on your site" link 23:29 idreambooks http://idreambooks.com/newbooks/9-Unbroken 23:29 idreambooks if you go that page, you will see that link underneath the readometer 23:30 idreambooks it works like youtube embed url 23:30 jcamins Yeah, that's what I was looking at. 23:30 rangi yeah we'd need that as isbn 23:31 idreambooks but it might be better....yeah 23:31 rangi so we could do it dynamically ;) 23:31 rangi that would be cool 23:31 idreambooks we could send the readometer through the xml file too 23:31 idreambooks all the data in the readometer is being sent through xml file right now 23:32 rangi so yeah all we need is some jquery to take your xml, and parse it into some nice html 23:32 rangi for a proof of concept 23:33 rangi even if all we had for a start is the rating 23:38 idreambooks ok...i see what you mean 23:40 idreambooks so ill go ahead and file the bug 23:40 rangi excellent 23:41 rangi jcamins: bug 8622 do we need/want that on 3.8.x, i dont think ill be pushing the related ones moving js libs around and the new theme etc, so it probably is safest to leave it for 3.10 eh? 23:41 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8622 major, P3, ---, jcamins, Pushed to Master , Koha themes broken 23:42 jcamins Agreed. 23:42 rangi cool 23:50 rangi ok so i have clients wanting to shwo the itemtype from 942, instead of the one from the leader+003+006+007 on the xslt/normal view 23:50 rangi so im wondering wether to change 23:50 rangi DisplayOPACiconsXSLT 23:50 rangi or add a new one 23:51 rangi im leaning to a new one 23:51 rangi opacitemtypeimages 23:51 rangi use marc control fields, use koha biblio itemtype 23:51 rangi something like that 23:51 rangi sound mental? 23:53 * rangi assumes not and does it anyway 23:55 jcamins New one. 23:55 wahanui new one is all open? 23:56 rangi cool 23:56 rangi bug 8732 23:56 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8732 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Add a systempreference to allow users to choose to display an icon based on the marc control fields, or based on the koha biblio level itemtype
