It would be great if you have a repetitive group of tasks that you do over and over, if you could do it like a macro. :) 22:37 pianohacker woot woot 22:35 bag we demo’d your rancor today 22:35 WNickC_ pianohacker: are they stored in browser? or actually on the system 22:35 bag what’s up man 22:35 bag yo pianohacker 22:34 pianohacker I'd like to have some sort of shared macro functionality, but that's down the line 22:34 WNickC_ yay! you read our minds! 22:34 pianohacker LordOfDuh: of course ;) what specific areas, though? 22:33 pianohacker hi, WNickC_.

At least I as a patron would like that instead of having to wait until morning and call the library :) 10:19 cait we use a separate itemtype for ill material 10:19 cait renewals for this cmbination of itemtype/patron category/library 09:43 Viktor I'd like to see a middle ground where you can still do a "request renewal from staff" where the renewal is handled by the staff as we do with tags etc. 09:42 Viktor But am I right that this will block borrower renewals altogheter? 09:41 Viktor Good idea. I think that is how we have it configured actually :) 09:18 cait and set it to 0 for the patrons 09:18 cait Viktor: you could allow staff to override renewal limits 09:18 cait Viktor: ah... sorry, i am a bit slow today 09:10 cait Viktor: i only said that for the renwals the configuratin is in the circ matrix now - so that shodl be ok 09:02 huginn Viktor: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready 09:02 Viktor @cait - Sorry. Browser acting up. Working away from regular computer and no IRC-client. 08:45 cait Viktor: hm you can do renewals in the circulation matrix 08:34 Viktor DVDs is fine if they renew by themselves but ILLs require the staff to check with issuing library before allowing renewal. A "request renewal" would be better for those. 08:33 Viktor Another ILL-thought. A "per item type" flag for "allow patron renewals" would be great. 08:33 Viktor Yes. Manually is no fun.. 08:32 cait apart from putting it on the account manually 08:32 Viktor No problem. Being confused is part of the fun. 08:32 cait hm guess right now ill fee is a bit complicated 08:32 cait sorry for confusing 08:32 Viktor Ah. Glad I didn't miss an important part though :) 08:31 cait it's been a while, our ill workflow is not in production yet 08:31 cait Viktor: ah you are right... we wanted to use it, but it's by patron category 08:31 Viktor I only see rental fee under item types. Does hold/reserve fee live i syspref? 08:30 Viktor Hm - wondering if I missed an important part 08:29 cait bit it depends on the workflow 08:29 cait the hold/reserve fee is what we use for ILL 08:29 cait for checkout and for renewal 08:29 cait i think the rental fee is charged every time 08:28 cait the change int he database is not too bad 08:28 cait maybe a step by step thing 08:08 Viktor Then I think a bugzilla thread might be called for. But as it feels like a patch that needs to store an extra parameter in the database it might be a little over my head. 08:06 Viktor It's not the end of the world of course. But it would be a welcome improvement 08:02 cait but we'd have a similar problem i think 08:02 cait Viktor: hm I can't remember something like that 08:01 Viktor Asking so I don't post a duplicate thread on Bugzilla. 08:00 Viktor We have DVDs that should cost the same for each renewals while ILLs is a one off fee where renewals are free. 07:59 Viktor Is anyone aware of any work on a separate renewal fee for item types? 07:59 Viktor Hi! 07:52 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 17.7°C (9:50 AM CEST on August 06, 2014). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 85%. Dew Point: 15.0°C. Pressure: 30.06 in 1018 hPa (Falling). 07:52 cait @wunder Konstanz 06:14 pianohacker jaysis I never closed my IRC! 05:42 dcook Need to get more windows around here... 05:42 dcook Interesting...if I slump forward I get sunlight reflecting off a window, but if I have proper posture there is no glare 05:29 dcook Actually, I think I might do that rather than do a local patch while waiting for this one to be signed off... 05:29 dcook Of course, I suppose I could've just turned off AuthoritiesLogging this time... 05:29 dcook Yay...now I won't get a million entries in my action_logs... 05:22 dcook Me too, so I should hurry up on this patch 05:22 eythian good, because I have to leave in a few minutes :) 05:22 dcook Suffice it to say, I won't bother re-enabling the syspref cache in this case :) 05:22 dcook Hmm, I think that leads me to more questions, which I might not burden you with at the moment 05:21 eythian when it's killed a new one is started. 05:20 eythian it depends. You might have 10 on startup, and it gets killed after say 50 requests. 05:20 dcook And how often is a process initiated? 05:19 eythian the startup overhead only happens once per process 05:19 eythian that's why it's faster 05:19 eythian yeah 05:19 dcook Multiple requests you say? 05:17 eythian it serves multiple requests with one process, so once C4::Context etc. is loaded in that particular process, it doesn't need to be loaded again. 05:16 dcook So what sort of persistence does Plack provide then? 05:16 wahanui i think interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 05:16 dcook Interesting.. 05:15 eythian it's a totally different process. The only communication they have is via the database or memcache. 05:15 dcook Admittedly, I've only poked at Plack a little bit so far 05:15 dcook So long as there are no "our" variables? 05:15 eythian bulkmarcimport doesn't know nor care that you have plack somewhere else. 05:14 eythian plack has nothing to do with bulkmarcimport 05:14 dcook Or is it with Plack it would only load C4::Context when Plack goes up, but the object is still created and destroyed within the process? 05:14 eythian yeah, though I'm not sure that it creates a new C4::Context (it might, I can't remember.) 05:14 dcook Stop me if I'm wrong... in both Plack and non-Plack, bulkmarcimport.pl will load C4::Context, then calling C4::Context->disable_syspref_cache(); will create a new C4::Context object and disable the syspref cache, then the object is destroyed at the end of the process? 05:12 eythian no, you're not setting it in plack if you call it from bulkmarcimport 05:11 dcook So that means C4::Context gets re-loaded regularly with Plack? 05:11 eythian it'll just apply to the bulkmarcimport.pl process 05:10 dcook Admittedly, I don't know how that works with Plack :/ 05:10 eythian it's not setting any global state 05:10 eythian it's just an in-process cache, I think 05:09 dcook I suppose for Plack setups... 05:09 dcook Would I need to re-enable it afterward? 05:09 dcook Sweet. 05:09 eythian yeah, I think then you should call that 05:09 dcook Totes 05:08 eythian ah, that'd be an issue 05:08 dcook bulkmarcimport.pl temporarily changes CataloguingLog, but it with caching it doesn't actually change... 05:08 dcook I suppose for now I should just use "C4::Context->disable_syspref_cache();" ? 05:06 dcook Hmm 05:05 eythian after doing it, I wrote a proper caching system, and the syspref fix doesn't use it. 05:05 eythian I need to re-do it actually 05:05 eythian yeah 05:05 eythian there is, sometimes 05:05 dcook eythian: Didn't you do a fix for that? 05:04 dcook Hmm, I seem to recall there being an issue with system preference caching... 05:01 * cait waves 04:46 dcook hey cait 04:46 eythian hi cait 04:42 dcook "Upgrade to 3.17.00.000 done (there is no time to rest on our laurels)" 04:42 dcook Hehe. Like this line in updatadatabase.pl: "Upgrade to 3.15.00.000 done (the road goes ever on)" 04:35 wahanui fix is probably https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg_ArW8lrl0 04:35 dcook fix? 04:35 wahanui well, fix is going to be something else 04:35 dcook fix? 04:35 wahanui okay, dcook. 04:35 dcook fix is also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg_ArW8lrl0 04:35 dcook hmm 04:35 wahanui fix is going to be something else 04:35 dcook fix? 04:35 wahanui somebody said fix was going to be something else 04:35 dcook fix? 04:35 dcook fix is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg_ArW8lrl0 04:34 dcook Well, not the actual patching. Just the process... 04:34 dcook But... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pg_ArW8lrl0 04:33 * dcook ponders patching bulkmarcimport.pl 04:32 mtompset Have a great day, #koha eythian dcook. 04:28 mtompset Good video. 04:26 dcook He seems like he'd be good for a few things 04:26 dcook Placement I think... 04:26 dcook No, not counting 04:26 dcook Apparently Korean is super interesting when it comes to counting 04:26 eythian he does a lot of videos on various interesting things that are good. 04:24 dcook This guy is fantastic 04:24 dcook Bahaha 04:18 eythian I'm not sure, but that is pretty accurate: http://youtu.be/0j74jcxSunY 04:16 mtompset How accurate is http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Translating_Koha 04:16 mtompset Greetings, #koha. 04:14 eythian .zip is a silly format on unix machines. 04:14 eythian There's a terrible annoyance with the plugin system. When you upload files using them, they go onto the system with 666 perms. a) other-writable is bad, b) some of them may need to be 755 and you have to manually update that. 03:32 dcook If you have logging for authorities turned on, your action_logs will fill up when using bulkmarcimport.pl for authorities 03:31 dcook Btw, mtj, you might want to look at your action_logs 03:31 dcook Me too 03:28 mtj dcook: thats all , i think... ^^ 03:01 dcook Staged MARC Management, Z39.50 Authority Search, bulkmarcimport.pl... 03:01 dcook Hmm, trying to think of all the ways to import authorities... 02:49 dcook The documentation is wrong :/ 02:48 dcook Yep, it does 02:48 mtj afaik, the -u arg did add new unmatched records too (as i hoped) 02:47 dcook I think I'm going to use your method. Cheers :) 02:47 dcook mtj++ 02:40 dcook Hmm, the documentation looks like it might be wrong... 02:39 dcook Not add missing ones 02:39 dcook I'm just looking at the documentation now, but it looks like that's supposed to only update existing authorities 02:39 dcook mtj: Now that I think about it... wouldn't -u not work that well? 02:30 dcook MARC-- 02:30 dcook Since it's "may", you could never count on 001 as a local number really... 02:30 dcook Same for authorities.. 02:28 dcook http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd001.html 02:28 dcook An organization receiving a record may move the incoming control number from field 001 (and the control number identifier from field 003) to field 035 (System Control Number), 010 (Library of Congress Control Number), or 016 (National Bibliographic Agency Control Number), as appropriate, and place its own system control number in field 001 (and its control number identifier in field 003). 02:28 dcook Now that I think about it, perhaps it is appropriate to leave the 001 untouched 02:27 dcook I don't know about this stuff either 02:20 dcook I don't know. 02:19 dcook Well, stored in the DB but maybe not as the primary key 02:19 dcook So maybe not store in the DB... 02:19 dcook I suppose there is some difficulty with that though.. 02:19 dcook (the 001 for both authorities and bibliographic records) 02:19 dcook Ideally, I think the 001 would be a unique number that we would also store in the DB and use for linking records together 02:16 dcook Because that will toss the 001 and put authid there instead 02:15 dcook The only downside would be if someone imported records via the web UI 02:15 dcook Your workflow works, which is good 02:15 * dcook shrugs 02:14 mtj i'll take a closer look next tme i work on it 02:14 dcook I don't think anyone ever considers it ;) 02:14 mtj hmm, this is stuff i havent considered yet, to be honest 02:13 dcook Which could get nasty when importing records... 02:12 dcook But fixing that will screw up the workflow for others (like yourself) 02:12 dcook That's probably a bug... 02:11 dcook bulkmarcimport.pl won't replace the 001 unless you use -keepid=FIELD 02:10 dcook Ahh, yep, as I expected 02:09 dcook If I were really fussed over everything, I wouldn't get out of bed in the morning :p 02:09 dcook I can't be too fussed over this 02:09 dcook But...*shrug* 02:08 mtj ah ok 02:08 dcook Probably 016$a according to the spec 02:08 dcook Ideally, we should be using a Koha-specific number in 001, and put LA's 001 in the 016$a or 035$a... 02:07 dcook Thanks for that, mtj :) 02:07 wahanui well, Interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 02:07 dcook Interesting 02:07 dcook Which it probably doesn't 02:07 dcook Unless bulkmarcimport.pl doesn't nuke the 001 and replace it with the authid from auth_header... 02:07 mtj record matching seemed to 'just work' 02:07 dcook Because -u will match on the 001 02:07 dcook I'm surprised that would update properly 02:07 wahanui Interesting is, like, sometimes good and sometimes bad 02:07 dcook Interesting 02:06 mtj i dont seem to have required any more tricks than that ^^ 02:05 mtj ./bulkmarcimport.pl -u -v -a -file ./NCG-20140212-18_00_44-All-titles.prd 02:05 mtj then a --update for the following files... 02:05 dcook Unless bulkmarcimport.pl doesn't do that.. 02:05 dcook In your case, I imagine you're nuking the 001? 02:04 dcook To move the 001 into the 035a 02:04 dcook I used -keepid=035a 02:04 dcook Well, actually 02:04 dcook Mmm, same 02:04 mtj ./bulkmarcimport.pl -v -a -m ISO2709 -file ~/formal_extra_final_10184.aut 02:03 dcook So how are you importing the records in the beginning? 02:03 wahanui rumour has it Interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 02:03 dcook Interesting 02:03 dcook Because Koha doesn't index 035 by default 02:03 mtj ok, its 001 then :) 02:03 dcook If you didn't changing the indexing, it would be 001 02:03 mtj actually i cant remember if i matched on 035 or 001, atm 02:02 dcook Are you moving the 001 from the LA records into the 035? 02:02 dcook Intriguing 02:02 mtj importing newer LA auth records into a koha, matching on 035 strings 02:00 dcook I'd love to hear about it :) 02:00 dcook Neato! 02:00 mtj i have been poking at a similar AUTH task to yours 01:59 dcook heya mtj 01:59 mtj hey dcook 01:58 dcook So really your 001 can be anything you want... 01:55 dcook Interesting... "authid" really is just the auth_header.authid column...hmmm 01:41 dcook (I imagine) 01:41 dcook That's not good... 01:41 dcook Turns out importing an authority using matching rules will overwrite the 001... 01:41 dcook Well that's special... 01:40 dcook Hmmm 01:36 dcook Marc modification templates might work for this... 01:35 wahanui unless is probably meant to give code that reads more like natural language? but i'm not a fan either 01:35 dcook Unless... 01:35 dcook Except...that still won't work 01:35 dcook Muahahahaha 01:34 dcook Derp 01:34 dcook Oh wait...yes it does 01:30 dcook Ah...except I don't think you can compare different fields... 01:27 * dcook looks at record matching rules more... 01:26 * dcook assumes that people don't update their authorities 01:26 dcook But...I'll have to tweak Zebra to do it...which makes me wonder what folks do now... 01:26 dcook In theory, that should work perfectly 01:26 dcook Then upload annual updates using the 001 from those updates against the 035 for the existing records 01:26 dcook Store the 001 from the original system in the 035 01:25 dcook I'm planning to upload 600,000+ authorities into Koha 01:25 * dcook wonders how people manage their authorities in Koha 00:58 wahanui hmmm... interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 00:58 dcook Hmm, interesting. 00:53 eythian it looks like the CFP is still open, too. 00:52 eythian neither have I yet, but that's not too unexpected 00:51 dcook Never heard about about that so not sure it's a thing, but thanks! 00:51 eythian http://opensource.com/business/14/8/interview-michael-tiemann-red-hat <-- dcook, for your OSDC talk 00:42 dcook Dang, they do seem to have a lot... 00:41 pianohacker heh, has mozilla hit the millions yet? 00:14 huginn New commit(s) kohagit: Bug 10220 IDs on checkin columns <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=ccd2a36c3c08f4ba25f9b6c29bcd33ab9c060820> 00:04 rangi night 00:03 tcohen night 00:03 tcohen not even the linux kernel bugzilla has that bug number 00:02 dcook hehe 00:02 * dcook was just doing the process of elimination 00:01 rangi 11244 00:01 dcook That can't be a real bug.. 00:00 tcohen heh
