01:32 dcook        Hmm, according to msaby (https://twitter.com/27point7/status/298004078347317248), Zebra supports left and right truncation for ICU? I find IndexData's "news update" to be somewhat indecipherable...(http://www.indexdata.com/zebra/doc/NEWS)
01:34 jcamins      2.0.53
02:20 eythian      rangi: is there no tag for v3.08.10?
02:20 rangi        i may have not pushed it, i certainly tagged it
02:21 rangi        my release script works with tags
02:21 eythian      I can see the 3.10.03 one, so it might just not have been pushed
02:21 rangi        ahh there its
02:21 rangi        http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=summary
02:22 rangi        i had pushed it, wonder why you arent seeing it?
02:22 dcook        Yeah, I see it on my end
02:22 dcook        But I just fetched a few minutes ago
02:22 eythian      I am doing a fetch with --tags, looks to be getting a whole lot more stuff.
02:23 rangi        last push was 8 hours ago
02:23 eythian      I think I remember something about that: it only gets tags that you have some local thing relating to them, or something along those lines
02:23 rangi        ahh yeah thats right
02:23 rangi        that's caught me before
02:23 eythian      * [new tag]         v3.08.10   -> v3.08.10
02:23 eythian      thar she goes
02:23 eythian      hmm, oddly that came via the catalyst repo only
02:23 eythian      oh well, I have it now, that's the important but
02:23 eythian      bit
02:25 dcook        If one of you fine folk has a moment, could you take a quick look at Bug 9703 and let me know if it sounds like a reasonable idea?
02:25 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9703 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, dcook, Needs Signoff , Add optional parameter "as_string" to GetRecordValue subroutine
02:26 dcook        I can also summarize if the bug summaries are too verbose :p
02:29 eythian      just from reading the bug it doesn't seem like a bad thing. Note that an alternative would be to have a utility sub that does the conversion, but I would only do that if it gained you something else (e.g. being able to be used my other subs.)
02:31 dcook        Cool. When the idea first crossed my mind, I thought about doing a utility sub, but I wasn't sure if it would be useful elsewhere, so I figured it would be best to embed it in the existing sub.
02:31 dcook        Thanks for the input, eythian :). Very much appreciated.
02:32 eythian      it could even be an internal utility sub, that way a) there's more modularisation, and b) it can be made public easily should that be useful.
02:35 dcook        I like your points, but what do you mean by an internal utility sub? Is that in reference to C4::Koha?
02:36 eythian      no, just something nearby that's not designed to be public, and the name starts with _
02:36 eythian      it's just that splitting up subs is a good thing.
02:36 eythian      (I haven't looked at your code btw, it might be you've done that)
02:37 eythian      yeah, looking at it now, I would do that
02:37 dcook        So something like |_koha_delete_biblioitems"?
02:38 dcook        And just locate it at the bottom of Biblio.pm?
02:38 eythian      you have if ($as_string) three times, I'd post-process it in another sub if ($as_string)
02:38 eythian      I'd put it just below GetRecordValue, and call it something like _record_to_string, or similar
02:38 dcook        Oooh, I like that
02:39 dcook        I was a bit worried about a utility sub being lost, but if I can just put it below..
02:40 dcook        Certainly seems more straight forward
02:41 dcook        Sometimes I wonder how many useful subs are hidden away in the depths of Koha
02:42 eythian      brazillions, I expect
02:44 wizzyrea     hey you leave brazlilans out of this.
02:44 wizzyrea     brazilians
02:44 wizzyrea     :)
02:53 mtj          eythian, about?
02:53 eythian      mtj: yarp
02:54 mtj          shall i have a go at building this round of koha deb packages?
02:55 eythian      mtj: you can't at the moment, I haven't sorted out changing the signing keys.
02:55 eythian      (also, I'm actually right in the middle of it :)
02:55 mtj          yep, i recall that
02:56 mtj          ah :)
02:56 mtj          classic
02:57 mtj          next time?
02:57 wahanui      next time is in 87 years or something... ;-)
02:58 eythian      yeah, but that'll be in 87 years or so :)
02:58 mtj          i cant remember… is the 'changing the signing keys' step, tricky somehow?
02:58 eythian      actually doing it is easy, but it takes time to get people to update them.
02:58 eythian      Maybe I'll do that today.
02:59 eythian      that way they can be ready for the next one.
02:59 mtj          do i need to give you my ssh.pub key, too?
02:59 eythian      no
02:59 eythian      actually
02:59 eythian      hmm
03:00 eythian      you'll have to get access to debian.koha-community.org to deploy them
03:00 eythian      Not sure who does that, possibly galen.
03:00 mtj          thought i might, for push access to the kc.org box
03:00 mtj          yep, ok
03:00 eythian      yeah, I don't think I can give you access to that
03:00 eythian      gmcharlt: you about?
03:01 mtj          ill mail him :)
03:01 mtj          ok, all good
03:01 mtj          hope you're feeling better, this week
03:01 eythian      OK. Also, you'll want to add the catalyst repo to your git, as the packages differ very slightly from the canonical copy
03:02 eythian      http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?p=koha.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/3.10.03-packaging <-- for example
03:03 eythian      this'll be a good chance to update the docs on this, too.
03:04 mtj          cool, yep - i got it :)
03:05 mtj          im curious to learn the process myself
03:11 tweetbot`    [off] twitter: @ByWaterSolution: "“Papertab” paper tablet is your flexible friend http://t.co/ZH9B2iwVii #kohails"
03:41 eythian      all new packages updated (3.8, 3.10, 3.11.) jcamins: I've removed the koha package from all of these.
03:42 jcamins      Thanks.
03:53 dcook        "When the local variables are initialized, the @array variables grab all of the elements in the @_ array, leaving none for the scalar variable. This results in the uninitialized value message displayed in the output. You can fix this by merely reversing the order of parameters. If the scalar value comes first, then the function processes the parameters without a problem."
03:53 * dcook      twitches
03:54 eythian      it makes sense
03:54 jcamins      dcook: don't use arrays as arguments.
03:54 dcook        array refs instead, right?
03:54 eythian      yeah, perl lists don't nest, and arguments is a list
03:54 eythian      (for power users: perl arrays only nest when using arrayrefs)
03:55 eythian      and lists/arrays can be used more or less interchangeably, but there's no such thing as a listref.
03:56 dcook        O_o
03:56 eythian      dcook: I'd be inclined to re-evaluate what you're doing
03:56 eythian      well, at least a part of it
03:56 dcook        Certainly part of it
03:56 eythian      there's often a more elegant way to approach things at that level.
03:57 dcook        The whole array of hashes thing gets me sometimes and how to de-reference or access the data
03:57 eythian      what are you trying to pass in?
03:57 dcook        That array from GetRecordValue
03:57 dcook        Well, array of hashes
03:58 eythian      OK, and just that?
03:58 eythian      strictly, it's an array of hashrefs
03:58 dcook        And a string
03:58 wahanui      well, a string is soft
03:58 eythian      ah right. The easy way is to put the string first.
03:58 alohabot     Hi mib_ap8tl6, Welcome to #koha. Feel free to use the '/nick yourname' command to choose a different name. alohabot, wahanui, and huginn are bots. If you need any help, just ask - there's usually someone around to help :)
03:58 eythian      the other way is to pass the array as an arrayref
03:59 dcook        Right, that took me a little while to figure out. Hence the pasted bit above
03:59 dcook        Wait..
03:59 mib_ap8tl6   hi does anyone know the location of where i should place my custom images so that it would reflect in the web interface?
03:59 eythian      wahanui: wait is <reply>is Godot coming?
03:59 wahanui      bugger all, i dunno, eythian
03:59 dcook        I was thinking of passing the array as an arrayref (not that I'm 100% on what that means), but then the whole thing seems to fall apart
03:59 eythian      wahanui: wait is <reply>is Godot coming#
03:59 wahanui      OK, eythian.
03:59 eythian      wahanui: wait =~ s/#/?/
03:59 wahanui      OK, eythian
04:00 eythian      it would just be _my_sub(\@result, $the_string)
04:00 mib_ap8tl6   anyone here knows about the opac??
04:00 wizzyrea     mib_ap8tl6: you would have to add them using the tool - Tools -> upload local cover image
04:00 mib_ap8tl6   thanks!
04:00 wizzyrea     assuming that's what you mean by "custom images"
04:00 jcamins      mib_ap8tl6: but only if you want to upload a local cover image.
04:01 jcamins      And I am pretty sure that is not.
04:01 wizzyrea     the first question?
04:01 wahanui      "What are you trying to do?" or "What is the goal?"
04:01 jcamins      ^^ exactly
04:01 mib_ap8tl6   i want to use our school's logo in part with the koha
04:01 jcamins      wizzyrea will take you through the four questions that help us help you, while I go to sleep.
04:01 jcamins      Good night, #koha.
04:01 * wizzyrea   will go pick up her kid, actually :/
04:02 wizzyrea     the short answer is
04:02 wizzyrea     anywhere you can link to, you can put your image
04:02 mib_ap8tl6   my goal? i want to customize the header image
04:02 eythian      dcook: then when you access it: my ($array, $string) = @_;
04:02 eythian      dcook: and $array->[4]; # get the 5th value
04:03 eythian      dcook: and $array->[4]{subfield}; # get the 5th value's subfield entry
04:05 dcook        eythian: That requires an explicit reference to subfield though, right?
04:06 eythian      I don't know what you mean there, but I suspect the answer is "no"
04:06 dcook        eythian: At the moment, I'm using a for loop to get each element of the array, then I'm trying to do a foreach on the keys of the hash
04:06 dcook        Well, in the case of $array->[4], you need to write 4 into your code
04:06 dcook        To get that 5th value
04:06 eythian      that was just an example
04:07 eythian      that can be a variable
04:07 eythian      or you can use a foreach
04:07 eythian      foreach my $val (@$array)
04:07 dcook        I figure using loops makes the sub more re-useable overall
04:07 mib_ap8tl6   solution wont work
04:07 dcook        Hmm, I think I missed the @ reference!
04:07 eythian      then inside that: foreach my $key (keys %$val)
04:07 dcook        Or dereference..
04:07 eythian      if it helps, @$foo is the same as @{ $foo }
04:08 eythian      you're dereferencing it into it's "real" type
04:08 dcook        Right
04:08 dcook        When I was passing the array rather than the array ref, I didn't use any dereferencing (obviously)
04:09 dcook        But when I changed to the reference, I forgot to dereference *facepalm*
04:09 eythian      ah right :)
04:09 dcook        And now the order that I pass my variables is irrelevant
04:09 eythian      yep
04:10 mib_ap8tl6   i can't seem to change the appearance of the opac
04:10 dcook        Sweeet
04:10 eythian      most of the times I'm mixing types, I use references
04:10 mib_ap8tl6   can't locate where the image file are
04:10 dcook        Mixing types?
04:10 eythian      strings, arrays, hashes, etc
04:10 dcook        Mmm, k. That's what I thought you were saying
04:11 dcook        I had never encountered references in a programming language before Perl. It certainly has taken some getting used to
04:11 eythian      really?
04:11 eythian      C has them, Pascal has them, ...
04:11 dcook        Well, Perl is the first "serious" language I've encountered
04:11 mib_ap8tl6   where is the right location to put the images to be used for the changing of the appearance of the opac?
04:12 dcook        Maybe I shouldn't have said serious :P
04:12 eythian      most high level languages do
04:12 eythian      ah right
04:12 dcook        Yeah?
04:12 dcook        I have a humanities/social science background. I grew up playing with computer game scripts and then PHP, but...you know. PHP.
04:12 eythian      not all, but I think most imperative or OO ones do
04:12 eythian      I think PHP has them too, but they're probably more stupid
04:12 dcook        Never ever noticed a mention of them *shrug*
04:13 dcook        I've only noticed scalars and arrays though
04:13 dcook        The whole hash concept was new to me with Perl as well
04:13 eythian      PHP definitely has them, and they are definitely stupid there.
04:14 eythian      http://search.cpan.org/~mschwern/perl5i-v2.10.0/lib/perl5i.pm <-- I wish we were using this
04:14 eythian      It makes everything a fair bit smarter
04:15 dcook        Whoa...
04:15 dcook        I'm liking that at a glance
04:15 eythian      turns everything into an object, etc.
04:16 dcook        Yeah, I've only started getting into OOP, but I suppose I'm a bit surprised that we don't use more of it
04:16 dcook        Not that I completely understand it or "us" yet :p
04:16 eythian      In old perl it's ugly, in new perl, there's many competing ways to go about it.
04:18 dcook        Mmm, certainly not the best environment then
04:18 eythian      though, pure-perl OO isn't too bad any more.
04:18 eythian      but it is hard to turn a non-OO app into an OO one
04:19 eythian      lots of impedence mismatch
04:20 dcook        Impedence mismatch being an impedence through having to get code in extra handling to link it up?
04:21 eythian      well, in part. It's more that they result in different designs of code.
04:21 eythian      you tend to think of things a bit differently
04:21 eythian      and many things that we do would be quite ugly in an OO world
04:21 eythian      like your thing would be totally different in OO
04:22 eythian      you'd be creating a method on the record class that returned it as a string, rather than modifying the retreval sub.
04:23 dcook        Mmm, I saw that somewhere in there
04:23 dcook        Yeah, the Marc record class definitely has a method like that already
04:24 eythian      the newer stuff will, we're slowly transitioning to that
04:24 dcook        So the impedence mismatch is why you have the terms OO vs interpretive/procedural?
04:24 dcook        Well, not the cause but...
04:24 eythian      well, they're different designs.
04:24 dcook        Yeah, that's what I was meaning
04:24 eythian      so the abstractions are different.
04:25 dcook        Is one better than the other, or just more useful in particular situations?
04:25 dcook        useful/appropriate*
04:25 eythian      Depends. OO is quite nice in many ways, in general I prefer it to procedural.
04:25 eythian      Especially for larger things, it's more maintainable
04:26 eythian      and generally better for writing test cases for
04:26 alohabot     Hi mib_fji3js, Welcome to #koha. Feel free to use the '/nick yourname' command to choose a different name. alohabot, wahanui, and huginn are bots. If you need any help, just ask - there's usually someone around to help :)
04:26 dcook        I've used it in a few instances, and am thinking about it for some other projects I have in mind
04:27 dcook        I think Chris once said that Koha was written in Perl because that's what folks knew
04:27 dcook        I take it that it was also written as procedural rather than OO because of old perl being ugly in regards to OOP?
04:27 eythian      Most likely, yeah
04:27 eythian      also, it was used much less back then
04:27 eythian      (OO in perl that is)
04:27 eythian      it may not have even been a thing, I'm not sure when it came about.
04:28 eythian      actually, I started using it a few years later, and I think it was there then, so it probably was
04:30 dcook        Hmm, interesting in any case. So you weren't one of the original developers?
04:30 dcook        Despite some mild attempts to remedy it, my Koha history knowledge isn't comprehensive
04:30 eythian      oh no, I started on it just 2 or so years ago.
04:30 dcook        I suppose I really should read that code4lib article in its entirety..
04:30 eythian      there's a fair bit of history :)
04:30 dcook        Oh wow
04:30 dcook        I only started about a year ago, so there you go ;)
04:31 dcook        Hopefully things will become clearer in October
04:31 eythian      April '10. So nearly three years
04:31 tweetbot`    [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails  Mozilla Persona login support in Koha http://t.co/vIOJgc29qU"
04:31 eythian      though I was part time on it for the first few months.
04:31 dcook        Mmm, that's how I spent the end of 2012
04:31 dcook        Had to go back to Canada to finish the MLIS
04:32 dcook        A bit painful wanting to work on Koha full-time but having to sit through class instead
04:32 eythian      heh
04:33 dcook        I've been promoting the conference quite a bit though, so maybe there will be a fair number of SLAIS folks in Reno
04:33 * dcook      should remember to send some emails to the faculty admin...
04:33 dcook        So you had been working in Perl before Koha?
04:34 eythian      everyone wants a junket :)
04:34 eythian      yeah, I used it when I was at uni
04:34 eythian      for data processing and such
04:34 dcook        That's how I had traditionally heard it being used as well
04:34 dcook        I had no idea that it was more widespread until I encountered Koha
04:35 dcook        But then I met my current partner who mentioned Paul Fenwick and how he's a mover and shaker in Perl, which expanded my concept of Perl's impact quite a bit
04:35 dcook        It's just not a language that you hear a lot about though. It seems like it's mostly Ruby, Python, and PHP that are trendy
04:35 dcook        With Java being...well...omnipresent
04:35 eythian      oh yeah, it's all over the place
04:36 eythian      it used to be known as the language that glues the internet together, that's probably still true to a degree.
04:37 dcook        I remember seeing quite a few cgi-bins years ago. I assume those were all Perl scripts?
04:38 eythian      could be anything. You can write cgi-bin scripts in bash, or C if you want.
04:38 eythian      just something that's executable
04:38 dcook        Hmm, I see
04:39 * dcook      sometimes wishes that he had done comp-sci or comp-sci/english rather than just english :p
04:40 eythian      heh
04:40 dcook        Or that library schools did more with programming
04:40 dcook        But having thought on that one for a while, I don't think it would be so easy to implement
04:41 dcook        I suppose if it were, they would have done it by now
04:41 eythian      I think anything that involves data should include an element of programming
04:41 dcook        Mmm, makes sense
04:41 eythian      you're not going to be as useful as you could be if you can collect and organise, but can't process freely.
04:42 dcook        Very true. I was in a cataloguing class once where we had to design a reclassification project, and most of the ideas required time-consuming hand-to-keyboard type tasks
04:43 dcook        My idea was to get the systems person/people to do a programmatic change and let the cataloguer focus on something greater than manual data manipulation :S
04:43 dcook        Not to devalue the processing, but rather to take advantage of automation
04:44 eythian      I used to work in a psychology department helping out with that kind of thing. The amount of times I caught people who had spent a day getting half way through a manual conversion, and I was able to do all of it for them in 30 minutes.
04:45 dcook        Exactly
04:54 cjh          Programming isn't yet mainstream, it's still a rather specialized task. I look forward to the day when this is no longer the case.
05:01 druthb       o/
05:08 dcook        Me too, cjh. Me too.

09:30 Herwig       Hey all ... question .. is there a way to make a list of patrons + barcodes of the works they have
09:44 kf           Herwig: you could do it with reports
09:44 kf           maybe take a look at the reports library, if there is something like that already?
09:44 kf           reports library?
09:44 wahanui      reports library is found at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/SQL_Reports_Library
10:06 Herwig       test
10:08 Herwig       gonna have a look at it did not see the patron/barcode combination but maybe i can make one myself (maybe) :)
10:13 kf           we can help you a bit :)
10:13 kf           I think you will need borrowers and issues tables
10:21 Herwig       http://mibpaste.com/92mG37 this one is a good start only i get an error
10:21 Herwig       got him on the wicky
10:22 kf           hm yes
10:22 kf           that makes not so much sense
10:22 kf           issues is a table - not a colum :)
10:22 kf           let me try
10:23 kf           what infrmation do you need?
10:24 Herwig       patron name and firstname - barcodes off all the works they have
10:25 kf           ok
10:26 kf           maybe like that? http://paste.koha-community.org/399
10:26 kf           it's normally easier to start simpler and add more information as needed

11:05 samuel       hi everybody, we have a problem when we create a biblio record: the date of the creation of this record is not added. We use 099$a for this information , which is linked to biblio.datecreated.
11:06 kf           hm is this a standard unimarc field?
11:13 samuel       my colleague want use this field but i have the same question
11:18 samuel       oups, it's 099$c for the date of the creation.
11:19 samuel       When I create a record, the columns biblio.datecreated and biblio.timestamp of the database are not copied in the subfield 099$c and 099$d of the MARC record
11:27 kf           hm I am not sure if you can make it work this way
11:27 kf           I think the fields might be handled by the database and not manually, but not sure

15:07 oleonard     Anyone else not having any luck with Persona logins?
15:10 oleonard     I can log in to Persona, and my email address matches, but I can't log in to the OPAC
15:10 jcamins      oleonard: It works for me.
15:10 jcamins      I had to allow cross-site cookies for persona.org, though.
15:10 oleonard     I guess it would have had to :)
15:10 oleonard     Oh I'll bet that's it
15:12 oleonard     You had to explicitly allow cross-site cookies? How did you do that juts for persona?
15:13 jcamins      They're generally enabled by default.
15:13 jcamins      I had previously disabled them.
15:13 jcamins      I whitelisted the domain.
15:14 jcamins      In Chrome, under Privacy choose "Content settings..." and under "Manage exceptions" add "login.persona.org"
15:19 kf           hmm
15:22 magnuse      i see a link called "Sign in with your Email" in the opac, but it does not seem to do anything?
15:23 magnuse      ah, maybe because i tried with the ccsr theme...
15:23 oleonard     I wonder if it doesn't work with "localhost" addresses?
15:24 jcamins      oleonard: oh, of course not.
15:24 jcamins      You'd have to have your own persona authentication server.
15:24 magnuse      bug 9704

15:26 oleonard     Okay, works if I use a domain name rather than localhost
15:27 kf           oleonard: hm worked for me with localhost too
15:27 kf           maybe one of the recent changes?
15:28 jcamins      kf: Persona should not have let you authenticate with a localhost address.
15:28 jcamins      Wait... e-mail address or URL?
15:29 kf           you can#t have a localhost email address, because you have to confirm your registration I think?
15:29 jcamins      kf: exactly.
15:29 kf           my koha runs on localhost and I tested this successfully
15:29 jcamins      That's why I said it didn't work.
15:29 jcamins      Ah.
15:29 jcamins      Okay, that worked for me.
15:29 * oleonard   shrugs
15:30 jcamins      But your opacbaseurl has to match the URL you are using to access Koha.

15:33 kf           this
15:33 kf           breaks sending out emails :(
15:33 kf           when you have an overdue notice that has no borrowrnumber... which happens when you have a "print overdues for patrons without emails" notice
15:33 kf           that you can't deactivate btw...
15:33 kf           *sigh*
15:34 jcamins      That patch went into Koha well over a year ago.
15:36 kf           hm so it is not that maybe after all
15:37 kf           *sigh*
15:37 kf           maybe a side effect from some other change?
15:37 * kf         goes to dig deeper
15:38 kf           and sorry poor patch for blaming you
15:40 drojf        look who's back
15:40 drojf        with a crosspost
15:42 kf           jcamins: maybe overdues wasn't using this part of the code before?
15:42 jcamins      kf: it's possible.
15:42 kf           I will have to check, but it's the only notice this problemwould occur with
15:49 kf           jcamins: the patch went in after 3.6.3....
15:49 kf           which we updated from before it broke
15:49 jcamins      That could be the patch.
15:50 kf           yeah, the one from marcel... but it would mean it's still broken... I have to make a test case on current master
15:50 drojf        »In some cases, on email lists and forums, an individual is put under a Stealth Ban  where their posts are distributed back to them as if they were being  distributed normally, but the rest of the subscribers are not sent the  messages. «

20:14 bag          yeah I think edveal here has been trying to submit some patches for those - but got distracted by some other things
20:14 bag          :)
20:14 cait         bag: probably no one at first - or to opac default
20:14 bgkriegel    I changed it
20:14 bag          cool yeah opac default :)
20:15 bgkriegel    wizzyrea: I'll look at it in a moment
20:15 * bag        goes back to his ramen noodles :P
20:15 wizzyrea     oh no worries - I thought maximep had something to do with it
20:15 wizzyrea     it can sit for as long as it needs to.
20:15 cait         bgkriegel++ #sign-offer of the month :)
20:15 maximep      I wish I had time :/
20:15 wizzyrea     ah it's all god

20:17 magnuse      "it's all god" - that's deep wizzyrea ;-)
20:17 wizzyrea     heh.
20:18 maximep      is there any rules for sending selenium tests for an enhancement I will soon send ?
20:19 maximep      do I only attach the html from the IDE or do I also send an exported pl
20:19 rangi        morning
20:19 cait         morning rangi
20:20 magnuse      kia ora rangi
20:20 bgkriegel    hello rangi
20:21 bgkriegel    rangi: can you look my comment on Bug 9704?
20:21 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9704 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Needs Signoff , Add persona login to the CCSR theme
20:22 rangi        ill look after work
20:22 bag          morning rangi
20:22 libsysguy    hey maximep
20:22 bgkriegel    ok
20:22 libsysguy    sorry, just saw your question
20:22 libsysguy    I would *suggest* that you just send the html
20:23 libsysguy    its easiest to plug into the ide
20:23 libsysguy    the FF plugin won't re-read the .pl file
20:23 libsysguy    but if you want to submit the .pl file as a patch for the prove function you can put it in the selenium test folder
20:23 maximep      sure, but the pl tests could be executed when jenkins run
20:23 maximep      with something like ghostdriver
20:23 libsysguy    true, but the pl tests can be generated when your patch gets through
20:24 libsysguy    and then integrated into jenkins
20:24 maximep      ok
20:24 libsysguy    there are a few selenium tests in git
20:24 libsysguy    but none of them are plugged into Jenkins
20:24 maximep      yeah, saw the selenium dir
20:25 maximep      not really sure how to organize my tests into it
20:25 maximep      I guess I will create a suite for the test
20:25 libsysguy    that is what I would do
20:26 maximep      ok
20:26 libsysguy    I have some tests that you can have that are in html form
20:26 libsysguy    tests to log-in
20:26 libsysguy    do some basic clicking
20:26 libsysguy    etc
20:26 maximep      what login do you use ?
20:26 maximep      is there one by default with the test data ?
20:27 libsysguy    typically I use the admin login.
20:27 libsysguy    then I have a test to create a patron
20:27 libsysguy    and assign them as a staff user
20:27 libsysguy    then I log out and log in as that patron with the test
20:27 libsysguy    it'll probably be broken soon the way oleonard has been ripping out YUI code
20:27 libsysguy    oleonard the YUI-ripper
20:28 maximep      the tests currently in /selenium seems to assume youre logged in
20:28 maximep      probably the simplest way to do it
20:28 libsysguy    I think all of those are written by biblibre
20:29 maximep      well, they are in french
20:29 maximep      so probably :p
20:29 libsysguy    oh I was just saying that because I saw some wine stains :p
20:29 libsysguy    jk paul_p
20:29 magnuse      it would probably be a good thing if someone checked that they still work...
20:29 libsysguy    aww he's not even here to hear my french wine joke :'(
20:29 magnuse      libsysguy: apropos - are you still coming to marseille?
20:30 libsysguy    I am not
20:30 magnuse      aww... too bad!
20:30 maximep      I like the way everyone says "apropos" in english
20:30 libsysguy    I know, we had some good fun stuff to hack on
20:30 maximep      i'm from quebec btw =) <insert poutine joke>
20:31 libsysguy    hopefully I can still get some of it working and send it along with bag
20:31 * magnuse    usually says "apropos" in norwegian
20:31 magnuse      libsysguy: put it in a bag and hope customs don't find it
20:31 magnuse      :-)
20:31 maximep      never understood why use it instead of "about"
20:31 magnuse      sorry for the pun bag...
20:32 libsysguy    its okay bag has a bag of puns
20:32 bag          no worries
20:32 libsysguy    :p
20:32 bag          that's my bag baby
20:33 magnuse      :-)
20:33 maximep      when I create a ticket with my selenium test, it's ok I CC it to you libsysguy ?
20:34 maximep      to validate what i did
20:34 libsysguy    sure
20:34 libsysguy    there is a patch to go with it?
20:34 * libsysguy  is excited somebody *wants* to use selenium
20:35 maximep      used it for years at my old job
20:36 libsysguy    I feel like its gotten quite a bit better
20:36 libsysguy    the IDE is my best friend
20:36 maximep      did everything to convince the client to have time
20:36 maximep      well, the IDE is less useful now with webdriver
20:36 maximep      the export is really buggy
20:37 libsysguy    ^^ this
20:40 maximep      I became addicted to doing selenium tests
20:40 maximep      but almost 2 years at this job without doing one :/
20:40 Dyrcona      maximep: Withdrawal is a pain....
20:41 maximep      the pain is when you find all kind of regressions
20:41 maximep      that should have been tested
20:41 maximep      really hurts :P
20:42 bgkriegel    wizzyrea: Done. It works
20:42 wizzyrea     bgkriegel++ thanks :)
21:00 drojf        no love for koha from the duckduckgo FOSS donations
21:00 wizzyrea     ?
21:01 drojf        they donate a part of their revenue each year to FOSS projects
21:01 wizzyrea     did we ask?
21:02 wizzyrea     I guess HLT could be the recipient of those funds.
21:02 drojf        they choose half, and half is chosen by their community. i nominated the search rewrite
21:02 wizzyrea     was there a vote?
21:03 drojf        no, they just ask for suggestions and decide afterwards
21:03 wizzyrea     so how does the community choose then?
21:03 wizzyrea     link
21:03 wizzyrea     I"ll just read about it :P
21:03 wizzyrea     instead of hassling you :)
21:03 drojf        http://duckduckgo.tumblr.com/post/44000299625/duckduckgo-foss-donations-2012
21:04 drojf        that is the result
21:04 drojf        https://duck.co/topic/foss-2012-donation-nominations
21:05 drojf        it is usually from ddg's sie projects they use for the search engine and the community part is usually privacy-ish, so it is again this year
21:05 drojf        s/sie/side
21:07 wizzyrea     cool thx
21:07 drojf        i should have nominated myself and ask them to pay for email encryption in koha ^^
21:07 wizzyrea     or rewriting the password storage engine
21:07 rangi        :)
21:10 drojf        at least they did not donate to reactos :P
21:10 wizzyrea     true
21:12 magnuse      "ReactOS® is a free open source operating system based on the best design principles found in the Windows NT® architecture"?
21:13 wizzyrea     yikes.
21:14 magnuse      and with that nugget i bid #koha a good time of the day
21:16 rangi        cya magnuse
21:16 wizzyrea     later magnuse
21:16 drojf        heh yeah reactos is really bizarre. i never heard of it before there were a lot of people (or a few people doing it very often…) asking for it in last year's ddg donation thingy
21:17 drojf        why would anyone want a FOSS OS that looks like XP and runs none-free windows-software? :D
21:17 wizzyrea     next year we should apply again, and let everyone know so they can +1 on it
21:17 drojf        the +1 does not really matter
21:18 wizzyrea     no? then why did the projects that got more than a few +1's win?
21:18 wizzyrea     i'm seriously asking.
21:18 drojf        it's not a vote, it's just suggestions, and ddg people try to put it together in a kind of theme
21:18 drojf        reactos got a lot of +1 last year ^^
21:19 wizzyrea     yea, but it would probably be more of an impact if more than one person suggested it.
21:19 wizzyrea     "oh one guy thinks koha is cool... whatever look at this stuff that like 10 people liked"
21:19 wizzyrea     you can't tell me that doesn't sway people.
21:19 drojf        don't know. we can try :)
21:20 wizzyrea     reactos is a dumb idea - it's not suprising it didn't win even if lots wanted it
21:20 wizzyrea     good ideas with support > bad ideas with support
21:21 libsysguy    anybody know what Julian Maurice nick is
21:22 wizzyrea     riseup seems like a really worthy project
21:22 drojf        nobody nominated javascript blocker ^^
21:22 wizzyrea     cryptocat too
21:23 eythian      hi
21:23 wizzyrea     but funds to TWO javascript blocking plugins seems excessive.
21:23 drojf        hi eythian
21:24 drojf        yeah. two javascript blockers, no library system doesn't sound right
21:24 drojf        ;)
21:25 eythian      @wunder nzwn
21:25 huginn       eythian: The current temperature in Wellington, New Zealand is 18.0°C (10:00 AM NZDT on February 26, 2013). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 73%. Dew Point: 13.0°C. Pressure: 30.36 in 1028 hPa (Steady).
21:26 wizzyrea     lovely.
21:27 drojf        anyway, if all koha support providers donated 10% of their 2012 revenue the search rewrite would be paid for already :P
21:27 rangi        heh
21:27 wizzyrea     if every koha library donated 10% of what they saved in licensing fees it'd be paid for 10x over.
21:27 drojf        true
21:28 rangi        i think we'd be taking from the pot
21:28 drojf        bill them for that
