00:00 dcook eythian: cool. good to know :)
00:00 dcook Honestly, I had totally forgot
00:08 tcohen hi dcook
00:08 tcohen dcook: can I trust your IE patches do their job? I don't have one for testing
00:10 dcook tcohen: That's a tricky question :p
00:10 dcook I think that they do the job :p
00:10 dcook If you want to test, there are VMs that you can use
00:10 dcook https://www.modern.ie/en-gb/virtualization-tools
00:10 dcook That might be the wrong link...
00:10 dcook Right website though
00:11 dcook Yeah, that's the right link
00:11 dcook tcohen: Is there a particular patch you're curious about?
00:11 tcohen bug 12325
00:11 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12325 normal, P5 - low, ---, dcook, Passed QA , Marc and Card view in Z39.50 Results doesn't work properly in IE 8
00:12 tcohen i tested they don't introduce regressions for chromium and firefox
00:15 dcook Mmm, I think that one is pretty trustworthy ;)
00:17 * dcook glares at vimdiff
00:24 tcohen heh
00:24 tcohen dcook: will u be able to give the facet patches a ride?
00:24 dcook Possibly later in the day. I have a bunch of DSpace work I need to get done today first :/
00:28 tcohen ok
00:28 tcohen thanks!
00:29 dcook What's the bug number again, tcohen?
00:29 dcook I think I forgot to send myself that reminder email the other day
00:29 tcohen bug 12788
00:29 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12788 normal, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Needs Signoff , Refine search displays 4xx fields from authority records
00:30 tcohen it has a weird name, but belive me heh
00:31 tcohen its easy to test
00:31 tcohen :-P
00:32 dcook Bloody vimdiff...
00:32 dcook Totally busted my templates..
00:34 * tcohen uses kdiff3
00:35 dcook I'm thinking I might give that a whirl
00:35 dcook Yay for "undo"
00:37 dcook Then again maybe it wasn't vimdiff, and it's just that tomcat sucks..
00:37 dcook Or neither. I have no idea...
00:39 dcook Hmm, perhaps it's coincidence and it's a third-party website that is letting me down..
00:39 tcohen dcook: do u use git for maintaining your templates? and re-compile the war to deploy the updated one?
00:46 tcohen night #koha
00:47 tcohen am i online?
01:07 dcook yikes, a very unstable third-party website...
01:11 irma_ G'day mtj ^^
01:13 mtj hi irma_, #koha
01:15 petter hi #koha
01:15 rangi hi petter
01:15 petter hi chris!
01:18 indradg hi
01:18 wahanui kia ora, indradg
01:20 indradg I'm planning to add a syspref that will allow the koha admin to toggle whether an js-based multi-lingual keyboard is supported or not... this will be available to both lib and opac interfaces.
01:21 indradg I should add it under - I18N/L10N preferences
01:21 indradg right?
01:22 indradg rangi: ^^^
01:23 rangi yep
01:23 indradg :)
02:52 dcook My bad for bashing vimdiff
02:52 dcook Folding just occurs somewhat unexpectedly...
04:24 dcook "zr", you're my friend
04:24 dcook Not that I'm actually still using vimdiff. But I just remembered, in case anyone else feels like using vimdiff for the first time.
04:32 wizzyrea ...question, why can we not have a custom XSLT for the list view?
04:32 wizzyrea as distinguished from the regular result view
04:33 wizzyrea an acceptable answer would be "because no one has made it do that"
04:33 dcook I think that's probably the answer
04:33 * dcook isn't sure though
04:33 dcook I think using XSLT in list view was a fairly recent addition as well
04:34 dcook Actually, I might be wrong there...
04:34 wizzyrea it needs a pref like the one for results and detail
04:34 wizzyrea default, or any custom one
04:34 dcook The only downside of that is maintaining another XSLT :/
04:34 wizzyrea or it can use the result one, unless you tell it otherwise
04:34 wizzyrea then you still only maintain the regular ones.
04:34 dcook I'm thinking that's the way to go
04:35 dcook I'm usually good using the results, but yeah...I think sometimes it could be handy to have a custom list view
04:35 wizzyrea well for example
04:35 wizzyrea I have a library who wants to see the abstract on the result view
04:35 wizzyrea for lists.
04:35 wizzyrea but not on the results
04:35 dcook Exactly
04:35 dcook I think it's a reasonable change :)
04:36 dcook I wonder what the state of the XSLTs is...
04:36 dcook I remember suggesting deprecating the non-XSLT display...
04:36 wizzyrea sad as, i think
04:36 dcook Oh?
04:36 wizzyrea desperately needs someone to put the RDA fields on
04:36 dcook Mmm, yeah, I've done that locally. It's on the "to do" list
04:37 dcook for upstreaming
04:37 wizzyrea we lack funding for this work.
04:37 dcook Of course, if they don't have up-to-date frameworks, they won't have RDA fields anyway :p
04:37 dcook yo cait
04:37 eythian surely it's only a few days work to implement in the first place
04:37 eythian hi cait
04:37 eythian wahanui: cait?
04:37 wahanui cait is probably from germany. Ask me about germany.
04:37 dcook eythian: Which?
04:37 wahanui i guess Which is why it is strange that it BROKE... after upgrading like that.
04:38 eythian dcook: RDA
04:38 cait hi all
04:39 wizzyrea putting the fields on is really no big deal.
04:40 dcook Yeah, it would be pretty trivial
04:40 wizzyrea though... I suspect we'd probably change our koha->marc mappings to prefer the RDA publisher fields over the old ones
04:40 dcook The 264 is a bit tougher than the 336,337,338
04:40 wizzyrea well yeah.
04:40 dcook Yeah, we've done that for some of our libraries
04:40 wizzyrea actually... could you just do that?
04:40 dcook Hmm?
04:41 dcook In terms of display?
04:41 dcook Only if you're not using the XSLTs
04:41 wizzyrea ah right
04:41 wizzyrea wish there were a way to reconcile the visibility features of the frameworks with XSLT.
04:41 dcook The thing about RDA that I find interesting...besides the 264...I don't necessarily see the utility
04:41 wizzyrea there probably is.
04:41 dcook mtompset was working on that
04:41 wizzyrea nobody has told us how to display it
04:41 dcook exactly
04:42 dcook I've had a few libraries want the 336, 337, 338, but I'm not sure why
04:42 dcook Other than, perhaps, that the LoC does it
04:42 eythian wizzyrea: mtompset has done that, not sure if it's in master yet
04:42 wizzyrea "because the natlib is giving us records that have it"
04:42 wizzyrea oo
04:42 eythian I recall it not being far away from being in
04:42 wizzyrea \o/ that is happy making
04:42 dcook eythian: I don't think so. I wasn't too keen on some of the code.
04:42 wizzyrea that is unhappymaking <o>
04:42 dcook Although I just commented. I didn't fail QA or anything like that
04:43 dcook I think he might've addressed some of my comments. But that was a while ago
04:43 wizzyrea he hasn't been around much lately
04:43 wizzyrea ok well I have to run to get the sprog.
04:43 dcook bug 11592
04:43 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11592 normal, P5 - low, ---, mtompset, Needs Signoff , opac detail scripts do not respect MARC tag visibility
04:43 dcook Hmm
04:44 dcook ciao wizzyrea
04:44 dcook It would be pretty rad if the displays respected the visibility settings
04:44 * dcook needs to grab a late lunch...
04:47 eythian hmm, why is my dev koha confused as to whether it should be trying to use prog or bootstrap?
04:47 eythian and so ends up using a bit of each that causes explosion
04:48 dcook Eeep
04:52 eythian this is totally weird
04:52 eythian also, I'm making a new law against modules that don't stacktrace when they fail
05:03 * dcook doesn't have anything to add about Koha. Just complaints about DSpace :p.
05:06 dcook I'm thinking it's scriptaculous or prototype magic that I'm not seeing...
05:13 eythian ah
05:13 eythian I had opaclanguage set to en-NZ but hadn't generated bootstrap templates for most of it.
05:13 eythian so it was falling back to prog except sometimes.
05:13 eythian that was an annoying mystery
05:15 dcook Well solved :)
05:15 eythian it came from tracing through the script with the perl debugger.
05:15 eythian It's never fun at that level
05:16 dcook Yeah, I'm trying to trace a Javascript event for adding a DOM node..
05:17 dcook Looks like I've tracked it down to an anonymous function in jquery 1.10? :S
05:17 dcook Hmm, I don't think I've got it quite right
05:17 dcook I think that's the Javascript that is doing the work... but not what started it..
05:43 dcook Hmm, it's not Javascript...that's why I can't find it.
05:43 dcook They reload the whole page :S
05:44 dcook Hmm, but there has to be some JS to prompt the submission..
05:55 cait bye all
06:15 dcook Ahhhhh
06:15 dcook I should've saw it before...
06:16 dcook No Javascript. Just IE7 treating buttons within an html form differently than every other browser ever.
06:24 indradg anyone around?
06:25 * indradg scratching head over http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/System_Preferences#Adding_a_new_system_preference
06:26 indradg did not exactly get "The release manager will be the one that assigns the correct DB version number. <<YOURINSERT>> should match the insert line you provided in installer/data/mysql/sysprefs.sql and <<YOURPREF>>, well, your new preference"
06:26 cait hi indradg
06:26 indradg hi cait
06:26 cait do you need help with adding a system preference?
06:26 indradg yep
06:27 cait in updatedatabase you add a new instance and put the version in as XXX
06:27 cait and you don't submit kohaversion.pl
06:27 * magnuse waves
06:27 cait and in sysprefs.sql (which is sorted alphabetically!) you also add the sql from the updatedatabase
06:27 cait hi magnuse
06:28 indradg cait: the last syspref insert was from tomas
06:28 indradg $DBversion = '3.17.00.014';
06:28 indradg if ( CheckVersion($DBversion) ) {
06:28 indradg $dbh->do("
06:28 indradg INSERT INTO systempreferences (variable,value,explanation,type) VALUES
06:28 indradg ('OverdueNoticeCalendar',0,'Take calendar into consideration when working out sending overdue notices','YesNo')
06:28 indradg ");

06:28 indradg SetVersion($DBversion);
06:28 indradg }
06:28 cait yes, tomas set the 3.17.00.014
06:28 magnuse it should be covered here, not sure if it is up to date: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/System_Preferences#Adding_a_new_system_preference
06:28 cait the patch was submitted with XXX there
06:28 cait that is for easier testing - if you have XXX you can run the database update without your version number being updated
06:29 cait it's a little gimmick
06:39 indradg cait: I'm trying to submit two sysprefs, so does this do the job? http://pastebin.com/Z3CwHW9m
06:40 cait looking good afaikt :)
06:40 cait what is jquery ime?
06:40 indradg yay! thanks a bunch!

06:46 wahanui hello, reiveune
06:47 indradg hi reiveune
06:48 cait indradg: cool
06:48 reiveune hi indradg magnuse cait dcook and everybody
06:48 cait hi reiveune :)
06:49 cait indradg: maybe include some explanation about what ime is in the pref description in .pref?
06:49 cait @later tcohen - just found the photo - such a sad face!
06:49 huginn cait: I've exhausted my database of quotes
06:49 indradg cait: i'm listening
06:50 cait @later tell tcohen - just found the photo - such a sad face!
06:50 huginn cait: The operation succeeded.
06:50 indradg I should be a little more verbose?
06:50 cait the sql is not shown anywhere
06:50 cait I think maybe in the .pref would be good
06:50 indradg can do that!
06:53 cait good morning marcelr :)
06:53 marcelr hi #koha
06:53 marcelr and cait
06:53 indradg hi marcelr
06:54 marcelr and indradg
06:54 wahanui well, indradg is the one who told me.
07:20 cait marcelr: hope the comment made sense ... it's an even bigger mess than i thought
07:20 cait with the paidfor
07:20 marcelr too bad
07:20 marcelr i am still thinking about a dbrev for those fields too
07:21 marcelr at least a warning?
07:24 indradg cait: i'm going to file a bug a "sub-classification" in the i18n-l10n.pref YAML file i.e. "Date and Time", "Language Support" sub-sections
07:24 indradg so I place it under i18n/l10n or System Admin as the component?
07:39 dcook @later tell tcohen Sorry, been busy with DSpace all day. Still haven't gotten to the facet code yet :(
07:39 huginn dcook: The operation succeeded.
07:40 dcook night all

10:05 quocuy Hi all
10:09 quocuy Anyone here?
12:15 dpavlin can somebody check if keyboard shortcuts are working in current master? For me they seem to select wrong tabs, and looking in the code I have no idea why
12:17 dpavlin alt+r (checkout does work) but alt+u (checkin) and alt+q (catalouge search) are... all over the place, depending on page
12:18 * dpavlin suspect local problem, so need confirmation before opening bug
12:24 cait hi dpavlin :)
12:24 cait hm can't check on master
12:24 cait would be 3.16.2 ok?
12:26 dpavlin I can see that after commit 9fe36e0c705b958859babe565517554b722c66cd (on which our production is on) and on current master, I don't really know about 3.16.2, but it would be nice to know if it works there...
12:27 magnuse dpavlin: works for me
12:28 magnuse gitified setup. git says i'm up to date with master, but "about koha" says 3.15.00.052?!?
12:29 dpavlin for me, even 3.16.x on home pages selects search patrons for q, and search catalogue for u, so local problem, I guess...
12:30 * dpavlin wonders about aliens and cosmic rays -- I see it both in Firefox and Chrome...
12:31 magnuse :-)
12:31 * magnuse wonders why about koha says 3.15 when the value in the syspref table is 3.1700011
12:33 Joubu dpavlin: here I got: alt+r: checkin, alt+u: checkout, alt+q: search
12:33 Joubu catalog search
12:33 tcohen morning!
12:33 wahanui hmmm... morning is a state of cat
12:33 tcohen hi Joubu
12:34 tcohen magnuse: around?
12:34 dpavlin thanks everyone, I'm going back to my dungeon to figure this out
12:34 Joubu magnuse: it seems that about.pl displayes the version in kohaversion.pl
12:34 Joubu Hi tcohen!
12:45 magnuse sorry, i gotta run (picking up from kindergarten :-)
13:32 datadoctor Good morning. Here at Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library we are looking to update to Koha v3.16.
13:33 datadoctor But we are concerned about print notifications.
13:34 datadoctor So far, I can't find a bug report, but the suggestion is that print notices do not generate properly after the addition of multiple notice per message_transport_type.
13:38 Joubu datadoctor: there are 2 bug reports
13:38 Joubu bug 12717
13:38 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12717 critical, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Signed Off , Library no longer receiving Overdue email for patrons without email address
13:38 Joubu and bug 12810
13:38 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12810 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , After MTT gather_print_notices includes overdues
13:39 Joubu datadoctor: could you detail? When the print notices are not generated properly?
13:41 kivilahtio Have you ever had a cronjob failure? Where no cronjobs run for 3 days?
13:41 Joubu kivilahtio: all cronjobs??
13:41 kivilahtio Joubu: yes
13:42 Joubu kivilahtio: nothing in logs?
13:42 kivilahtio I am looking in my logs and see that advance_notices.pl, overdue_notices.pl , fines.pl cancel_expired_holds.pl have not ran
13:43 kivilahtio I created a custom wrapper to log all my cronjobs to their respective log-entries to monitor the runtimes and verbose outputs
13:43 Joubu and others run?
13:43 kivilahtio have nt really peeked at the syslog
13:43 kivilahtio I am just wondering how is it possible for cronjobs not to run for 3 days
13:43 Joubu kivilahtio: you should see the job launched in syslog (or daemon) I think
13:43 kivilahtio then just happen to continue running
13:45 kivilahtio too bad syslogs are only for the past 7 days
13:45 kivilahtio this event happened on 15-17.8
13:46 kivilahtio I was also busy with some migration stuff, doing screen scraping to bring a small library to Koha
13:46 kivilahtio based on the enormous amount of errors reports I am getting I prolly should run those scripts that MUST be ran every day now
13:47 kivilahtio too bad most of the koha-scripts dont support other dates than NOW()
13:47 kivilahtio I guess I need to submit patches :)
13:48 kivilahtio anyway just asking if you have had issues with cronjobs not running
13:49 Joubu kivilahtio: bug 11120 fixed the --date for overdue_notices
13:49 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11120 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Needs Signoff , The date option for the overdue_notices cronjob is broken
13:49 Joubu but the patch does not apply anymore (too bad)
13:49 kivilahtio I had it fixed as well, but somehow didnt have time to submit a patch
13:49 kivilahtio we have some custom modifications regarding holds and they are going awol
13:50 kivilahtio also our trainee working with those things has been pushed to holidays :)
13:50 Joubu kivilahtio: Did you fix --date for overdue_notices on master?
13:50 kivilahtio I didn't publish a patch for it
13:50 kivilahtio i think i made an internal patch but then forgot about the thing because there was this and that problem
13:51 Joubu kivilahtio: yes I understood :) But you have a code working?
13:51 kivilahtio yes
13:51 kivilahtio for some old master version we are using
13:51 Joubu great
13:51 Joubu ha :)
13:51 Joubu so bug 11120 did that :)
13:51 kivilahtio we were about to upgrade to 3.16.2 but then "something" hapeneed and that is on ice
13:52 kivilahtio ah yeah schedule pressure about the small library migration
13:52 kivilahtio anyway
14:01 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
14:02 tcohen hi
14:14 quocuy HI all
14:15 quocuy Is there anyone here?
14:33 datadoctor Hi quocuy.
15:05 reiveune bye
16:20 quocuy Hello all!
16:21 quocuy I have a question, how i can add some tabs in to "menu-top" div, beside login tab
16:21 quocuy i'm playing around with kohs as cms, and want create some pages on the top-menu of Koha
16:27 quocuy hi
16:27 jcamins jquery library?
16:27 wahanui jquery library is found at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/JQuery_Library
16:27 jcamins quocuy: ^^ you might find some examples there
16:28 quocuy here is one
16:28 quocuy http://koha.vn/
16:28 jcamins I'm not sure, but it seems worth a try.
16:28 jcamins I mean examples of how to do it.
16:28 jcamins Not example catalogs.
16:28 quocuy just want to create top menu like that, i created some pages with koha as CMS, now i want to add them to top menu
16:30 quocuy Jcamins: Thanks, doing some search
16:34 quocuy didn't find anything :(
16:57 nengard anyone know why this : $("option[value='LANSING']").hide(); would work in firefox but not chrome?
17:39 mtompset datadoctor: you missed quocuy by 18 minutes. ;)
17:39 mtompset Oops... was scrolled up. :)
17:40 mtompset Anyone familiar with converting SQL into DBIx stuffs?
17:40 cait khall? :)
17:40 cait but apart from t hat, maybe look at some of yohann's patches?
17:40 * mtompset cringes.
17:40 cait hm?
17:41 mtompset No, please no more abstractions!
17:41 mtompset :)
17:41 cait sorry long day, you got me confused
17:42 jcamins I agree. More bit twiddling is what Koha needs!
17:42 mtompset I looked at one of yohann's patches and my brain melted, because of the layers of abstractions.
17:42 cait jcamins: you ar enot helping
17:43 cait mtompset: i didn't mean thte test builder
17:43 cait i think that's what you meant?
17:43 * mtompset laughs.
17:43 mtompset Yes, that's the scariness.
17:43 * cait goes to sit in a corner and be quiet now
17:46 mtompset It's okay. I do appreciate the suggestion, cait. Can you point me at a non-test-builder patch?
17:46 jcamins grep the codebase for DBIx stuff?
17:47 tcohen whatsup?
17:49 cait hmalso that
17:49 cait tcohen: mtompset is looking for patches converting sql to dbix
17:49 mtompset As tcohen is aware, the GetNewsToDisplay function is currently running an SQL query directly against dbi.
17:49 mtompset As per tcohen's suggestion, I was thinking of refactoring that one function to be DBIx.
17:50 mtompset The problem is timestamp and date manipulations.
17:50 mtompset In the where clause there has been four versions of an ugly date constraint.
17:50 mtompset DATE(timestamp) < DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
17:50 mtompset CAST( opac_news.timestamp AS DATE ) <= CURRENT_DATE
17:50 mtompset `timestamp` < CURRENT_DATE()+1
17:50 mtompset `timestamp` <= CURRENT_DATE()
17:51 mtompset (in no particular order)
17:51 mtompset How do I do those as a DBIx where?
17:51 mtompset the last two, I think I might be able to manage.
17:51 mtompset The first two look harder, because they contain functions on the left side.
17:52 mtompset and perhaps there is a DBIx way of doing it.
17:53 tcohen we need khall
17:53 khall what's up?
17:54 mtompset Is there a nice DBIx way of doing a timestamp to date truncation and comparison to another date? ;)
17:55 mtompset By the way, it was bug 12507 which conflicted with 12167, tcohen.
17:55 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12507 normal, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Pushed to Master , News does not always display in staff or OPAC
17:55 khall well, with the right configuration DBIx::Class can automatically turn the timestamps in the db into DateTime objects
17:55 khall don't think that helps here though
17:56 mtompset No, I don't think so, because this is about building a WHERE clause. :)
17:56 khall yep, however, you can also call mysql functions from dbic
17:57 mtompset take either of the first two examples from about 6 minutes ago, and demonstrate?
17:58 cait khall: i am starting to feel a little bit worried - everytime i say your name you don't make a sound... but whenever soeone else does you show up :)
17:58 khall lol, must've been lost in thought ; )
17:59 mtompset http://youtu.be/HDi7qOhECW8 -- You've lost that lovin' feelin'. :)
18:01 khall mtompset: we can calculate tomorrow using a DateTime object, and pass that in
18:03 mtompset example?
18:03 wahanui it has been said that example is probably a status change
18:03 khall mtompset: working on it
18:07 cait mtompset: not available here in germany - your link :(
18:08 mtompset Sorry cait.
18:14 cait mtompset: it's ok :)
18:14 cait i think i need to have dinner, then everything will be better :)
18:14 mtompset you at least know the song I was referencing. :)
18:20 indradg good evening #koha
18:22 indradg i have a question. Suppose I wish to add something like doc-head-close.inc that gets added to every template file under intranet-tmpl, what would be the easiest way to go about it?
18:23 indradg in my case, i planning to add two lines of code in each of the the .pl files that load up a .tt
18:23 jcamins indradg: first question?
18:23 wahanui "What are you trying to do?" or "What is the goal?"
18:25 indradg jcamins: trying to add an if statement in *all* the perl scripts that load a .tt template referencing a [% INCLUDE doc-head-close.in %]
18:25 jcamins indradg: right, but why are you trying to do that?
18:26 indradg so that i can pass a template param - a syspref condition
18:26 indradg if syspref then do this
18:26 jcamins My initial response is that this is a horrible idea, because you're making an identical change in dozens of files.
18:26 jcamins But I'm not sure what your actual goal is.
18:26 indradg yes... which is why I stopped and asked
18:27 indradg jcamins: the objective is bug 12815
18:27 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12815 enhancement, P3, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Adding browser based multi-lingual jquery.ime input method support to Koha
18:27 jcamins So why do you need to change the Perl files?
18:28 indradg http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=31130
18:28 jcamins My initial response is that you could just stick your new code in doc-head-close.
18:29 indradg I have those two new sysprefs working
18:29 tcohen indradg: Koha.Preference('SysPref') on the template
18:29 indradg aaaaaaaargh!
18:29 tcohen :=D
18:29 * indradg in a major facepalm moment!
18:29 indradg :-P
18:30 indradg thanks jcamins, tcohen
18:30 jcamins Yeah, I agree with tcohen.
18:30 mtompset tcohen++ # Koha.Preference('SysPref') for the win
18:30 tcohen you need to [%- USE Koha -%] first
18:30 mtompset The -'s prevent accidentally adding spacing. :)
18:31 tcohen amen
18:31 indradg tcohen: I got it know... some how the idea of adding an IF to dozens of .pl files looked like something way obscene
18:31 indradg s/know/now
18:31 * tcohen in blasfemous mode, sorry for that
18:31 tcohen indradg: :-D
18:32 khall mtompset: something like:
18:32 khall my $dt = DateTime->now()->subtract(days => 1);
18:32 khall my $parser = $schema->storage->datetime_parser;
18:32 khall my @results = $schema->resultset('OpacNews')->search(
18:32 khall {
18:32 khall -and => ]
18:32 khall -or => [
18:32 mtompset Sorry, but Amen is totally applicable and NOT blasphemous. You weren't calling Koha.Preference() a deity. ;)
18:32 khall lang => '',
18:32 khall lang => $lang,
18:32 khall ],
18:32 khall -or => [
18:32 khall branchcode => undef,
18:32 khall branchcode => $branch
18:32 khall ],
18:32 khall -or => [
18:32 khall expirationdate => \'>= CURRENT_DATE()',
18:32 khall expirationdate => undef,
18:32 khall expirationdate => '00-00-0000'
18:32 khall ],
18:32 khall \[ 'DATE(timestamp) < ?', $parser->format_datetime($dt) ]
18:32 khall ],
18:32 tcohen indradg: that's what khall thought when writing that Template plugin
18:32 khall },
18:32 khall {
18:32 khall order_by => [ 'number' ],
18:32 khall }
18:32 khall );
18:33 mtompset khall, a paste.koha-community.org would have been better. :P
18:33 khall http://paste.koha-community.org/170
18:34 mtompset got the wrong square bracket at the top, but I had something similar.
18:34 khall no guarantees I got it right, not tested ; )
18:35 mtompset Thanks for the example of passing a parameter.
18:35 khall yeah, it's better to avoid that when possible, but sometimes we must
18:41 mtompset khall: Can I ask about an amendment to that?
18:41 mtompset You grab the date at the top.
18:41 mtompset But then get DBIx to doa CURRENT_DATE()
18:42 mtompset could that line be changed to something like the parameter part below?
18:48 khall mtompset: we could just use another DateTime object for the current date, that would simplify things a bit
18:55 indradg just one quick question: does encountering more than one [% USE Koha %] directive via the .inc files create any performance / memory impact?
18:55 indradg jcamins, tcohen
18:55 tcohen i'm not sure indradg
18:56 tcohen it is probably on one of the global headers anyway
18:56 tcohen bye!
18:59 jcamins indradg: I think [% USE %] is file-scoped, but I'm not sure.
19:02 indradg based on what you guys told me, this is what I'm planning to do -> INCLUDE directive in doc-head-close.inc pointing to xyz.css.inc xyz.js.inc; inside these latter .inc file using [% USE Koha %] to check for Koha.Preference('syspref')
19:02 mtompset khall: Okay, I think I have something, but I'm having difficulty.
19:02 indradg jcamins ^
19:03 indradg that looks minimally invasive and keeping things clean. but was worrying over the two USE Koha calls
19:03 * indradg knows zilch about these things so far
19:04 pastebot "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "My ugly test code." (48 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/171
19:05 cait indradg: what else goes into the inc?
19:05 cait and i think you migh tnot need to add use koha - maybe check if it's there before, it only has to be on a page once
19:06 indradg cait: basically if syspref ON, then include the CSS and JS *and* jquery document.ready hook
19:07 cait hm ok:)
19:13 indradg cait: only 15 .tt files include the [% USE Koha %] declaration so far - http://pastebin.com/yeWDAz0Q
19:17 cait ah
19:17 cait i thnk the boostrap opac has a few more
19:17 cait those seem all to be intranet?
20:55 mtompset Well, this is lousy! I am positive I have good DBIx, but the SQL generated is bad.
20:55 mtompset Where is my where clause?!
21:41 eythian coffee is <reply>http://www.workbuffer.org/presentations/pizza/images/coffee.jpg
21:41 eythian wahanui: coffee is <reply>http://www.workbuffer.org/presentations/pizza/images/coffee.jpg

21:41 eythian no wahanui, coffee is <reply>http://www.workbuffer.org/presentations/pizza/images/coffee.jpg
21:41 wahanui okay, eythian.
21:44 cait tsk and no contribution?
21:45 * cait thinks her photo is art :P
21:47 indradg hi.. /me is back again :-)
21:47 cait hi indradg
21:47 cait i guess i need to go to sleep - good night #koha :)
21:48 indradg is I have to place a commonly accessed .js library for the OPAC, should I place it in [% interface %]/[% theme %] or simply under [% interface %] ?
21:49 indradg the former would of course restrict it to the specified opac theme... but are there any other gotchas to be aware of?
21:49 eythian different themes may require different versions?
21:49 eythian there's already a lib/ directory for that kind of stuff
21:50 eythian note that unless it's a thing for upstreaming, we've found it generally better to put it external to koha entirely.
21:50 indradg eythian: "external to koha entirely"?
21:50 eythian not in the koha file tree
21:51 indradg ok
21:51 eythian that way you keep your koha as close to stock as you can, which is a good thing.
21:53 indradg eythian: what I'm doing at the moment is a replacement for GoogleTransliteration syspref that used to dot the templates, but has since been removed as the submitted patch failed QA - bug 5621

21:54 eythian ah k
21:55 indradg the proposed patch calls for a mini-fied https://github.com/wikimedia/jquery.ime library
21:55 indradg eythian ^
21:56 eythian OK. In that case, I'd probably put it whereever the other libs go.
21:56 indradg so [%interface%]/libs

23:29 tcohen hi
23:30 dpk Hello. I have been building and installing Koha from source since 3.4 or so and an thinking about moving over to the koha-common Debian packages. One thing we have found very useful is to test new *major* releases before we move to that track, and we have found some bugs that caused us to move after a .1 or .2 release. How do you suggest I do this in the future? Keep using a built from source for "beta testing"? Who controls
23:31 tcohen dpk: why would you still build from sources?
23:32 tcohen packages is a way of deploying Koha in your infrastructure
23:32 tcohen we usually build our own packages for deploy
23:33 tcohen with the branch we're using + some patches that are not yet included
23:33 tcohen but there's usually no hurry and we might have installed stock packages
23:33 tcohen if we convinced the release maintainer to include some tiny patches ;)
23:34 eythian that release maintainer is a terrible person.
23:35 tcohen heh
23:35 * dcook notices offhand that a remarkable percentage of Koha is actually made up of fractions of percents.
23:35 eythian I don't know what that means.
23:35 tcohen tautology?
23:36 eythian could be
23:36 dcook According to the GitStats, the top 10 committers are responsible for...
23:36 dcook 53.67% of Koha
23:36 tcohen gitstats?
23:37 dpk I am very familiar with packages and their advantages. (I am a long time Unix/Linux SA and SW developer) We have found that occasionally the major release have bugs that prevent us moving over on the .0 release. Sometimes we need to wait a minor release or 2, to move from one major release to another. Elaine Bradtke, the librarian half of this team, has found several and that is in part because we are a research library (efds
23:37 dcook The remaining 46.33% is made up of contributions that are no larger than 1% of the total of Koha
23:37 dcook Oh, I lie
23:37 dcook After the top 20, it gets down to under 1% of the total contributions
23:37 dcook tcohen: http://git.koha-community.org/stats/koha-master/authors.html
23:38 rangi dpk: yep, im not sure what that has to do with the packages tho?
23:38 rangi you can wait for a .x package if you want
23:38 eythian dpk: you can have a few different degrees of control over what version you're running quite happily
23:39 eythian dpk: from making your own, to tracking the current releases, to tracking the older releases, or just not upgrading for a few months on a new release.
23:39 dpk The packages are updated periodically. Is there an easy way to stop apt-get update/upgrade from upgrading koha-common unless I want it to? (even though a new package is available?)
23:40 eythian sure
23:41 tcohen dpk, you can put it on hold
23:41 eythian yeah, that
23:41 wahanui somebody said yeah, that was cool - a way to enhance the OPAC without bloating Koha...
23:41 eythian we do that for things
23:41 eythian you can manually override it quite happily, but if you don't, it won't autoupgrade
23:41 rangi pin
23:42 tcohen dpk: for example echo "koha-common hold" | dpkg --set-selections
23:42 dpk OK. got it.
23:42 eythian tcohen: that's not the best way
23:42 tcohen the only way you'd upgrade Koha is by doing it explicitly
23:43 pastebot "eythian" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "pinning packages" (4 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/172
23:43 dpk Then I can set up a test system (on a separate machine) to test the new version and unhold when I am happy to move forward.
23:43 tcohen eythian: that was my first googlesearch result
23:43 eythian that's how I do it, and it means that you can do "apt-get install koha-common=3.16.01" whenever you want.
23:43 eythian otherwise nothing will get upgraded
23:43 eythian (well, by nothing, I mean that koha-common won't get upgraded)
23:44 dpk Sounds good.
