00:00 wizzyrea    I did!
00:00 eythian     oh
00:00 eythian     well that was a good idea then
00:00 wizzyrea    :D
00:07 wizzyrea    <insert the usual internal drama about naming things that are too long for mysql>
00:08 eythian     oh
00:08 eythian     I think we should patch that so it's not a problem
00:10 eythian     ah, it's documented but not enforced.
00:10 eythian     > Note: the instance name cannot be longer that 11 chars.
00:28 wizzyrea    oh, I didn't actually *do* it
00:28 wizzyrea    because I recalled that :)
00:39 * jcamins   can't decide what to bake. :(
00:39 jcamins     Ooh!
00:40 jcamins     Szechuan pepper!
00:40 wahanui     szechuan pepper is righteously spicy - but I think not as spicy as the thing I had last night. Jeez.
00:40 eythian     wahanui: you're a bot, you don't have reactions to spicy things.
00:40 wahanui     eythian: huh?
00:40 jcamins     lol
00:41 jcamins     The only problem is that Shari wanted cookies, so then I'd have to make two varieties.
00:41 jcamins     ... did I say "problem"?
00:43 eythian     all I heard was "solution"
00:43 jcamins     eythian: ah, good.
00:43 jcamins     I thought I might have misspelled it.
00:43 jcamins     Whoops.
01:29 jcamins     The pepper is steeping.

02:14 * dcook     facepalm
02:14 wahanui     hmmm... facepalm is a tiny member of the Arecaceae family whose preference for warm, humid environments makes it a perfect choice for cultivation in the human nasal cavity.
02:15 dcook       Apparently this is how it's done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFj_i6HtebM
02:15 dcook       I think the problem is that they just weren't Canadian :p
02:16 dcook       That's actually in front of the SaskPower building in Regina... not really sure why they would do it there...
02:17 dcook       Interestingly, it's actually been really warm in Canada this year...
02:17 dcook       Rivers are melting and it's raining
02:18 dcook       eythian: Neato burrito (https://metacpan.org/pod/ElasticSearch::SearchBuilder)
02:19 eythian     yeah, thought that might be of interest
02:19 dcook       Certainly interesting!
02:21 wizzyrea    well you don't throw the water *into* the wind, for one.
02:22 wizzyrea    also throwing it over your head, probably not the smartest ever.
02:22 wizzyrea    nope you're right, that's just an accident waiting to happen.
02:22 eythian     isn't it just hot water making a lot of steam as it evaporates?
02:23 wizzyrea    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deposition_%28phase_transition%29
02:23 wizzyrea    I think it's that
02:24 wizzyrea    so, boiling water -> steam -> snow
02:24 eythian     ah OK, that makes sense
02:51 jcamins     They were doing that last year. It was really annoying.
02:53 wizzyrea    you could probably achieve the same effect by just taking your kettle outside and letting it boil.
02:54 wizzyrea    *electric kettle.
02:55 jcamins     wizzyrea: people in New York don't have generators.
02:56 jcamins     Or outdoor outlets.
02:56 wizzyrea    they probably do have extension cords though?
02:56 wizzyrea    is the power out?!
02:56 wizzyrea    how are you on the internet ?!
02:57 dcook       :S
02:57 eythian     there's no answer, I think he's just realised the power is gone
02:57 eythian     like a cartoon character who doesn't fall off a cliff until he looks down.
02:58 wizzyrea    eythian++ for funniness
02:59 jcamins     wizzyrea: of course the power isn't out.
02:59 jcamins     There's not really much snow.
02:59 dcook       Is NY experiencing a rather warm winter as well?
03:00 wizzyrea    yeah you're a bit south of the main storm?
03:00 jcamins     And actually, New Yorkers don't generally have extension cords.
03:00 jcamins     dcook: not really.
03:00 wizzyrea    why not?
03:00 wizzyrea    houses are too small?
03:00 dcook       wizzyrea: I find small houses need even more extension cords.
03:00 wizzyrea    houses/apartments
03:00 wizzyrea    me too, they have fewer outlets.
03:00 * dcook     loves how Australian builders assume that no one ever needs to plug anything in...
03:00 jcamins     Houses are generally unavailable.
03:00 eythian     yeah, I have a small house, and have cords all over the place.
03:01 eythian     dcook: same here :/
03:01 jcamins     And apartments don't have direct exits to the outdoors most of the time. :(
03:01 dcook       eythian: Australians must've built your houses... I'm sorry.
03:01 wizzyrea    I agree with noticing trend of oceanic small houses with few outlets
03:02 dcook       jcamins: What about the NYC fire escape that we all expect every apartment to have?
03:02 dcook       iconic NYC fire escape*
03:02 wizzyrea    well that sucks.
03:02 dcook       Are you telling me that TV has lied to me all this time?
03:02 wizzyrea    omg, tv lies?
03:03 eythian     shush don't say that be quiet
03:03 wizzyrea    if it's on TV it has to be true.
03:03 dcook       wizzyrea: That's what I figure
03:03 jcamins     lol
03:03 dcook       I have yet to see a talking kangaroo, but I'm sure they're around
03:03 dcook       Or maybe they're all overseas...
03:03 dcook       I can't say I watch enough tv to keep track
03:04 eythian     dcook / jcamins: how does zebra know what type a particular authority is, or does it not and just searches the particular field when you select the type?
03:04 jcamins     There's an index.
03:05 eythian     and what does "authority type: default" mean?
03:05 eythian     oh, so it sticks "TOPIC_TERM" or whatever into a place?
03:09 jcamins     It means not set.
03:09 jcamins     And yes.
03:10 eythian     hmm
03:11 eythian     I guess I'll have to figure out how to do that.
03:14 eythian     oh
03:14 eythian     it's already in 942$a
03:14 eythian     well thta makes it easier.
03:17 eythian     hmm, I already have mappings built, but they're not being applied.
03:17 eythian     tricksy
03:18 eythian     I bet I'm never telling it that biblios and authorities are different things when indexing
03:24 eythian     hrm, no, that's not it
03:26 eythian     oh. It's totally working, I was just reading the output wrong :/
03:28 wizzyrea    I have the perfect but completely unpolitically correct reaction gif for that.
03:28 eythian     heh
03:36 dcook       Hmm? Someone said my name?
03:37 dcook       Ah, looks like all is cool
06:50 paxed       i've deleted all from auth_header - but running link_bibs_to_authorities doesn't remove the links. Even though LinkerKeepStale syspref is "do not keep"
06:56 * magnuse   waves
06:58 dcook       yo magnuse
06:58 dcook       Sorry, paxed. Don't know. Haven't looked at authorities in ages.
07:02 BobB        paxed is CatalogModuleRelink set to 'do not? and LinkerRelink to 'do'?
07:04 magnuse     yo yo yo dcook
07:04 * magnuse   knows next to nothing about authorities
07:04 BobB        hey dcook, you missed out on a knighthood yesterday?
07:17 paxed       BobB: oh, CatalogModuleRelink should be "do not"?
07:18 BobB        I'm not sure, but it seems to make sense .... worth a try?
07:18 paxed       tried it, no effect.
07:19 BobB        ok, anyway understanding what those prefs do does my head in
07:20 paxed       i feel like i've tried all the combinations
07:20 BobB        I've never tried to remove all links ....
07:20 BobB        you may have found a bug?
07:22 paxed       link_bibs_to_authorities needs an explicit --delete option
07:25 BobB        ok, I've learnt something, thank you  :)
07:26 cait        paxed: it might be they are still indexed?
07:26 cait        did you try to do an authority search?
07:27 paxed       cait: wait... so it's not enough to delete them from auth_header, relinking uses zebra for looking them up?!
07:27 cait        afaik yes
07:28 cait        hm no ashimema
07:29 cait        bbl
07:32 magnuse     reindexing is definitely worth a try
07:36 magnuse     "ensure that everything still works like it should and that there are no regressions of any kinds anywhere in the system" lulz!1!!
07:51 paxed       blah. MARCdetail.pl apparently doesn't obey the url fragment for showing the tab.
07:52 paxed       (eg. going to /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/MARCdetail.pl?biblionumber=12345#Tab1XX doesn't show the 1 tab)
07:55 reiveune    hello
07:55 wahanui     what's up, reiveune

08:02 alex_a      bonjour
08:02 wahanui     bidet, alex_a
08:10 paxed       blah. nope, reindexing didn't help
08:13 cait        have you checked the authority search really doesn't work now?
08:13 cait        i remember there once was a problem about resetting to empty - not sure if that's still the case
08:16 paxed       auth search works.
08:16 cait        hm so the index is still there?
08:16 paxed       actually. looks like zebra returns the old results.
08:16 paxed       wtf
08:17 cait        i am not sure how to force reset it
08:17 cait        but you could try adding 1 new auth and reindex
08:17 cait        that shoudl do it
08:35 cait        morning ashimema
08:35 ashimema    morning peeps
09:12 ashimema    queit in here this morning.
09:14 cait        yeah everyone is busy

09:21 nlegrand    Hey.
09:23 magnuse     howdy!
09:49 Joubu       yep!
09:50 cait        hi Joubu
09:50 cait        discussing with ashimema the allowonshelfholds/opacitemholds bug
09:51 cait        i think you did the force itemholds dev?
09:52 cait        bug 5786

09:52 cait        looking for opinions on how the 'force item hold' should work in the new constellation with multiple itemtypes
09:54 magnuse     is there a good description of UsageStats and Hea, aimed at librarians, anywhere?
10:02 Joubu       magnuse: I tried to complete the wiki page 2 weeks ago: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaUsageStat_RFC
10:03 magnuse     excellent! sorry i missed that
10:05 Joubu       cait: will try to have a look asap
10:13 cait        Joubu: thx, trying to keep it moving
11:04 eth0__      Hi koha
11:05 eth0__      About my problem with haproxy / z3950
11:05 eth0__      DAEMON_OPTS="-l /var/log/zebrasrvUNIMARC.log -u www-data tcp:192.168.178.144:9999"
11:05 eth0__      it was tcp:@6:9999
11:06 eth0__      (pebcak), so z3950/zebra serve behind and haproxy
11:07 eth0__      like this
11:07 eth0__      listen z3950 :9999
11:07 eth0__      mode tcp
11:07 eth0__      option tcplog
11:07 eth0__      option clitcpka
11:07 eth0__      server z3950 192.168.178.144:9999 check
11:07 eth0__      jcamins: cait ↑ Thanks :)
11:12 cait        eth0__: still no idea sorry
11:18 eth0__      cait: it works now ! ;)
11:18 cait        oh!
11:19 cait        cool
11:19 eth0__      the problem was  tcp:@6:9999
11:19 eth0__      s/tcp:@6:9999/tcp:192.168.1.1:9999
11:20 eth0__      So for information, zebra can work behind a reverse-proxy/load balancer(haproxy)
11:32 bsa         is it possible to display price when books are searched in koha admin
11:33 bsa         how to enable price field in opac as well as in admin page
11:44 cait        bra: I think it's not possible, the price from the item is only visible inthe marc view
11:44 cait        bsa...
11:45 bsa         ok
11:45 bsa         i wanted to enable it in admin
11:45 bsa         when records are search along with price, isbn, pages, publisher, year
11:45 bsa         if i could get price
11:46 cait        do you mean in z39.50 search?
11:48 bsa         no
11:49 bsa         in kohaadmin when books are searched it shows title, author publisher
11:49 bsa         along with that i wanted price
11:49 cait        if you mean the staff search - those displays are made with xslt
11:50 bsa         yes staff search
11:50 cait        you could add your own set of xslt in configuration, but it requires a bit of programming / putting files somewhere accessible by the server
11:50 bsa         oh
11:50 cait        it's not possible with some quick configuration changes
11:50 bsa         if only one xslt file needs to be changed i can try
11:51 bsa         but if several files then i wont prefer that
11:55 paxed       huh. i gave link_bibs_to_authorities.pl --auth-limit='authid >= XXX' where XXX is the authid of the first existing authority... and _then_ the script removes the bib links to auths that do not exist.
11:55 paxed       without that, it did nothing.
12:52 cait        nice surprise: you can hide the restricted status information in the opac easily with css :)
12:59 oleonard    Hi #koha
13:10 tcohen      hi oleonard #koha
13:16 cait        hi oleonard
13:17 cait        do yu have a moment for a little jquery?
13:17 cait        i am looking for a good way to get the biblionumer on the normal view staff detail page
13:17 cait        i want to add a link to another page where i need the number for
13:18 cait        the 'add link to display' bit is working, just not sure about where best to get the biblionumber
13:19 magnuse     cait: i have done something similar, let me check
13:20 magnuse     i think i took it from <abbr class="unapi-id" title="koha:biblionumber:1911"><!-- unAPI --></abbr>
13:20 cait        hmm
13:20 cait        using regex?
13:20 wahanui     using regex is like using black magic
13:20 cait        agreeed wahanui
13:20 cait        do you have the jquery snipped maybe?
13:20 Joubu       cait: if it's a detail page, there is only 1 biblionumber
13:20 Joubu       why don't you get it from the TT var?
13:20 cait        Joubu: adding something with jquery
13:20 oleonard    Joubu: Custom JS
13:20 cait        yep
13:21 magnuse     var id = $(".unapi-id").attr("title");
13:21 Joubu       var biblionumber=[% biblionumber%] ?
13:21 Joubu       ha
13:21 cait        i have a library with lots of custom item fields and the marc items tab is the only place we display those
13:21 cait        so trying to add a shortcut :)
13:21 cait        so they can go to that page with less clicks and it's more prominent
13:21 oleonard    magnuse: Is that in the staff client?
13:21 magnuse     no, opac
13:22 magnuse     ah, dang
13:22 cait        yeah was wondering
13:22 magnuse     i missed the staff client bit...
13:22 cait        i mean there are plenty of urls with it as parameter
13:22 cait        but not sure how to extract it fromthe url
13:22 Joubu       cait: you should certainaly can get it from the url
13:23 Joubu       hum, my connexion lag...
13:24 cait        still trying to figure out how
13:24 cait        hints welcome
13:24 Joubu       location.href?
13:25 cait        the bit i need form the full url :) is the one i am missing
13:25 cait        googleing around a ibt
13:28 magnuse     cait: http://www.jquerybyexample.net/2012/06/get-url-parameters-using-jquery.html ?
13:28 nengard     morning #koha
13:28 nengard     I almost have the 3.18 manual finished after a day of working on it yesterday :)
13:28 cait        hm oh i have another idea
13:28 cait        i use the link as is for the marc view and append my tab anchor :)
13:29 magnuse     nengard++
13:32 magnuse     after upgrading to 3.16.7, the dropdown for creating new patrons on the "Patrons" page (/cgi-bin/koha/members/members-home.pl) shows the hardcoded list of general patron categories, not the list the library has actually created themselves... anyone else seeing that?
13:32 cait        hm it was fixed in 3.18 i think
13:32 cait        or shoudl have been
13:33 cait        it's a pref thing and we crated a problem there with the new patron search... which is not in 3.16? confusing
13:34 magnuse     yeah, it looks ok in 3.18.3
13:44 tcohen      cait: are you saying it got fixed as a side effect?
13:44 cait        more broken by a side effect
13:44 cait        we have fixed it on master with a patch only doing that
13:45 cait        bug 13458
13:45 huginn      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13458 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Pushed to Stable , Add new patron shows default / hardcoded patron categories after search
13:45 cait        btw, the finished hack:
13:45 cait        var biblionumber = $("#catalog_detail #menu a:contains('MARC'):first").attr('href');
13:45 cait        $("#holdings a:contains('Auswahl aufheben')").after(' | <a href="' + biblionumber + '#tab10XX">Exemplardetails</a>');
13:45 cait        i know it's hacky... but refining will have to wait
13:53 cait        magnuse: did you check the ocnfig?
13:53 cait        magnuse: that it wasn't changed by accident?
13:58 magnuse     what config would that be?
13:59 cait        patronlist i think
13:59 magnuse     ah, AddPatronLists
13:59 magnuse     that does not affect it
14:02 nengard     am i understanding the chats right - we're going to be removing  OPACFallback  ?
14:02 nengard     do I document it?
14:04 cait        it stays
14:04 cait        it has still use if you want to add your own templates
14:07 tcohen      OPACFallback has no use right now, as we have only one theme
14:07 tcohen      but if the user had a custom theme... it would show there
14:08 tcohen      its purpose is to provide a way to choose to what theme to fallback when you have a partial theme, like CCSR was
14:08 tcohen      it had a hardcoded 'prog' as a fallback, that now is handled by that syspref
14:08 tcohen      and is set to bootstrap by default
14:09 cait        thx tochen :)
14:11 tcohen      np ciat
14:11 nengard     okay, so i'll document it :)

14:21 * ashimema  hopes someone might find time to test them once he's done
14:22 nengard     okay #koha - the last system preferences I have to document!!! OnSiteCheckouts -- explain to me why we need these because I'm confused
14:22 nengard     after that I might be done with the 3.18 manual!!!
14:24 nengard     uh oh ... i scared you all away
14:25 ashimema    Joubu.. care to explain OnSiteCheckouts?
14:25 ashimema    it's for recording uses of items that are not loanable I beleive
14:26 ashimema    for stats purposes for example..
14:26 ashimema    librarian walks round at the end of the day.. picks up all the books that have been left out (reference or otherwise) and does an OnSiteCheckout to record the use..
14:27 ashimema    it's a while since I read that bug though to be fair.. I might be barking up the wrong tree.. what the pref itself does I have no idea.
14:27 ashimema    cait?
14:27 wahanui     i think cait is regretting a bit that we didn't offer this as an option first... or on a test system for people to see
14:27 * ashimema  is getting more and more annoyed that you need a very specific database to run testws again adn expect them to actually pass!
14:30 ashimema    Joubu..
14:30 ashimema    wasn't there a bug with a db attached we can use to test against?
14:30 ashimema    I can't seem to find it :(
14:31 * ashimema  watches tumbleweed roll on by
14:34 cait        ashimema: hm i think you are confusing with local use :)
14:35 cait        ashimema: the difference is those really go on the patron account, but are not supposed to leave the house
14:35 cait        ashimema: libraries i have talked to would use it for rare items, manuscripts - when someone goes tot he libreary to study the items there
14:36 magnuse     that is the understanding i have of it too
14:36 nengard     Yeah, I'm seeing that now in the screenshots
14:36 nengard     it's for closed stack items basically
14:36 nengard     let people read the materials in the library and track who is using them
14:36 nengard     it's a great idea
14:36 nengard     need to figure out how to document this to be 100% clear
14:36 cait        yeah, you can also see a red note in the reading lists for thos eitems
14:36 ashimema    that's right
14:36 wahanui     no it's not.
14:36 ashimema    thaks for the clarification cait
14:36 cait        and instead of checked out it says 'in local use' in opac and staff
14:37 Joubu       ashimema: bug 10337 :)
14:37 huginn      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10337 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, In Discussion , UT: The unit tests cannot be launched by everyone
14:37 cait        and missed that the question was from nengard - should read all the way back up first :)
14:37 ashimema    cheer joubu
14:38 * magnuse   is faced with translations again and seriously considers moving to an english speaking country
14:39 Joubu       nengard: did you get a correct answer about your on site checkout question?
14:39 cait        heh
14:39 nengard     i think so - it's used to checkout items that don't leave the library
14:39 nengard     so you can track who has them
14:39 Joubu       nengard: yep, that's it :)
14:39 nengard     working it in to the manual now and then I might be done for 3.18!!!
14:40 nengard     which means a bunch of help file patches coming soon
14:40 cait        i might try and work out how to have the library set the due dates manually if they want to
14:40 cait        but not sure when :(
14:40 cait        right now the due date is always set to the end of the day
14:41 nengard     Joubu one question
14:41 nengard     OnSiteCheckoutsForce
14:41 nengard     what's the point of this one?
14:42 nengard     if I have onsite enabled and force disabled it kind of makes no sense ...
14:42 Joubu       nengard: the librarian will be able to force the on site checkout even if the patron is restricted, or have a limitation (number of checkout, etc.)
14:42 nengard     so it's kind of like an override?
14:42 nengard     allowing the librarian to check out the item even if the patron is restricted?
14:44 Joubu       yep
15:03 Joubu       magnuse: I have just submited a followup for 3.16.x on bug 13458
15:03 huginn      04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13458 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Pushed to Stable , Add new patron shows default / hardcoded patron categories after search
15:44 nengard     holy cow - i think i'm done with the 3.18 manual
15:44 nengard     I mean ... it's never "done" but I think it has all the new stuff in it
15:53 cait        nengard++
15:55 ashimema    api advice ..
15:55 ashimema    for monetary transactions..
15:56 ashimema    should I create one route /svc/transaction for example that handles both invoices(debits) and payments(credits)
15:57 ashimema    or two routes.. say /svc/payment  and /svc/invoice
15:57 cait        hm no strong preference
15:57 cait        i think transaction might be a bit too global perhaps?
15:57 cait        not strictly thinking about money then
15:57 tcohen      ashimema: think REST, OO, and do it on /api/v1/
15:57 ashimema    my guts sort of telling me the former.. leads to more DRY code I hope
15:57 tcohen      :-P
15:57 ashimema    Oh.. it's certainly OO and RESTful..
15:57 tcohen      let's give /api the
15:58 tcohen      first kick
15:58 ashimema    and yes it's also being done in a new namespace
15:58 ashimema    we actually discussed this the other day tcohen.. not sure you were there..
15:58 tcohen      i wasn't
15:58 ashimema    yeah.. cait that was my one dislike regarding transaction.. needs a more descriptive route
15:59 cait        accounting?
15:59 wahanui     accounting is important.
15:59 cait        not sure
15:59 cait        wahanui botsnack cookie
15:59 wahanui     thanks cait :)
15:59 ashimema    We suggested perhaps we have a bug that shift all /svc into /svc_old or somthing to try and get people to realise there 'is a new way' with the new api's I hope to promote
16:00 ashimema    http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/New_REST_API_RFC
16:00 ashimema    that was the result of our initla thoughts tcohen
16:00 ashimema    woudl be interested in your thoughts too ;)
16:01 tcohen      i would only add that I'd rather choose a new namespace (/api) and that it should be versioned
16:03 ashimema    I agree with the new namespace..
16:03 ashimema    I'm less enamoured by versioning
16:03 Dyrcona     Whee! Sixty-six centimeters of show and it isn't finished, yet.
16:03 cait        it would make future changes easier... but might lead to have lots of copied code?
16:03 ashimema    my question regarding versioning is at what point is a version 'done'
16:04 cait        Dyrcona: ?
16:04 ashimema    yeah.. cait
16:05 ashimema    I've rather see a sensible set of guidelines/rule drawn up for what goes into our new namespace and see that things going in there remain strictly within though guidelines..
16:05 Dyrcona     s/show/snow/
16:05 tcohen      I think versioning is important for a second stage
16:05 ashimema    thereby allowing the api to be continually enhanced but remain backward compatible as such without restricting us to versions
16:05 tcohen      once we have a mature API, and people want it to evolve
16:05 tcohen      we might as well choose not to support them
16:06 tcohen      but I think no harm keeping as an option from the beggining
16:07 ashimema    I'd almost prefer we version on a route by route basis.. save needing to ad /v1/route /v2/route's all over the urls
16:07 ashimema    hmm.. though I know what you mean..
16:07 ashimema    versioning does have it's upsides
16:08 tcohen      for ourselves, it makes sense to just stick to /svc or /api
16:08 tcohen      but think of people from other projects
16:09 Joubu       that's why we decided not to submit koha-restful into the Koha codebase
16:09 ashimema    ok.. perhaps I'm happy to version..
16:09 ashimema    just reading up on versioning
16:10 ashimema    version via url or header though..
16:11 ashimema    added versioning to the wiki RFC ;)
16:11 ashimema    I'm sold
16:12 ashimema    i effect we're versioning lareday by making a breaking change with the move from svc whatevr goes to a restfull /api space ;)
16:12 ashimema    just the versioning will be /svc = v0 and /api = v1 ;)
16:12 ashimema    anywho..
16:13 ashimema    I should get back to me transactions route... though I have a horrible feeling I'm quickly going to run into the territory of overlapping with the account re-write..
16:13 ashimema    which I really don't like the idea of running into
16:41 nengard     bug 13088

16:42 nengard     says there is a new pref in Koha - but I don't see it in my install of Koha
16:42 nengard     what happened to it?
16:42 nengard     I'm reading through the releaes notes to make sure the manual is up to date
16:54 reiveune    bye
17:32 nengard     anyone know what's up with http://es.koha-community.org/manual/  ?
17:32 nengard     I know it's been down for a while ...
17:45 tcohen      nengard: maxRecordsForFacets
17:45 nengard     yeah?
17:45 tcohen      also, es.koha-community.org is being moved, and the manual has been moved to the translate site
17:45 tcohen      http://translate.koha-community.org/manual/
17:46 tcohen      i'm sorry, the introduced syspref was FacetMaxCount
17:46 nengard     oh! thanks - now I see it
17:47 nengard     and as for the manual - WOW - it's gorgeous
17:47 nengard     what happened to the PDF though?
17:47 nengard     and how often is the HTML generated?
17:47 nengard     http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/ is generated nightly
17:47 tcohen      you'll need to wait for bgkriegel to be back from vacation
17:48 nengard     @later tell bgkriegel when you're back from vaca ping me about the manual, i'm wondering how often the html is generated and where the PDF links are - http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/ is generated nightly just fyi
17:48 huginn      nengard: The operation succeeded.
18:02 schnydszch  Hi Julian! I'm trying out again the koha connector in drupal. I've already set up the content type to publish automatically however everytime i do the drush harvest the contents does not publish. I'm using the latest opac and koha connector modules. Thanks in advance and cheers! :)
18:30 oleonard    schnydszch: Is the person you're trying to talk to here?
18:31 schnydszch  Oleonard, just testing messaging, it's for jajm ;)
18:35 cbrannon    Can anyone tell me, when I look at the timestamp of an item in the deleteditems table, does that timestamp reflect when that item was deleted?
18:38 oleonard    cbrannon: I would say the answer is "probably," since it's not likely that the record was modified by any other means
18:40 cbrannon    Thanks oleonard.  Trying to incorporate some stats from that table.  Proving to be challenging considering when items are deleted.  Hopefully this will be more accurate when I am done.
18:41 cbrannon    I just wasn't sure if the timestamp is something copied with the record to this table when the item is deleted.
18:42 oleonard    To my understanding, if the timestamp column is of timestamp type it is automatically updated on creation or edit

19:16 mtj         hiya cait
19:16 cait        hi mtj :)
19:18 mtj         who can tickle jenkins_bot peeps
19:20 tcohen      hi mtj
19:22 mtj         heya tcohen,  thanks for the jenkins help
19:22 mtj         i missed your PM msg a few days ago..
19:22 tcohen      np, do u need something right now?
19:22 mtj         nope :)
19:23 mtj         i'm all good, thanks
19:27 mtj         random Q... how many people on #koha are using SSD drives for dev and/or prod systems?
19:27 cait        not currently
19:27 tcohen      +1
19:28 tcohen      (dev)
19:28 mtj         ive had one in my lappy for ... 1.5 years? - its been great
19:28 cait        i tried to replace the one in my laptop with ssd... but the one i have gave me lots of trouble lst time i tried
19:28 mtj         ..but ive only just added one to my dev 'server' thingy
19:29 cait        well maybe it's not even the ssd, but the cd drive... because i failed getting ubuntu on it
19:29 cait        have to try again with a usb stick to boot from sometime
19:29 mtj         ah, bummer cait :/
19:29 tcohen      cait: let's give it another try
19:29 cait        yeah but not tonight :)
19:29 * cait      is going to do the dishes now :)
19:29 mtj         it made an amazing difference on my old/slowish lappy
19:30 tcohen      on recent hw, i found that it was troublesome to boot ubuntu from sticks
19:30 tcohen      but, typing "live"+<enter> did the trick
19:30 tcohen      before that it got stuck on some weird grub error message
19:31 mtj         the thing i wanna see is how much faster mysql stuff is, on a ssd
19:32 mtj         hmm, i wonder what the SSD speedup for long/slow mysql stuff is
19:32 mtj         data/bib clenaup stuff, or marc imports, etc..
19:33 mtj         would be a pretty easy thing to test :)
19:35 mtj         i'm quite curious about the results of that ^
19:37 mtj         i vaguely recall a bunch of articles some years ago, saying ... "dont run DBs on ssd drives, you will break the SSD!"
19:38 cbrannon    mtj: what about a hybrid?
19:39 mtj         yes, for sure :)
19:39 mtj         but for me, i take the faster/smaller prue ssd
19:39 mtj         pure
19:40 cbrannon    I haven't tried a hybrid myself.
19:40 mtj         well, have both types of drives, really
19:40 mtj         i have both, fwiw
19:42 mtj         i recently bought a big/old HP server, with 64g of RAM
19:42 * magnuse   waves
19:43 mtj         ..i was planning on running a test mysql db, on a huge ramfs 'disk' with it
19:44 mtj         i was curious about the speed difference for reaaaaally slow imports, on a mysql/ramdisk setup
19:44 * mtj       hasnt got round to it yet
19:44 * magnuse   waves to JesseM in french
19:45 JesseM      hiya magnuse :)
19:45 JesseM      few more weeks
19:45 JesseM      cheese!!
19:45 wahanui     cheese is delicious, but cait just had butter.
19:46 magnuse     lol
19:46 magnuse     yeah, the cheese is the main thing ;-)
19:46 magnuse     come for the cheese, stay for the hacking
19:46 mtj         sounds pretty exciting stuff
19:47 JesseM      :D
19:47 mtj         hey JesseM, keep the camera ready for some cheeses, yeah
19:47 JesseM      oh yeah
19:48 mtj         cheese is great to photograph :p
19:49 JesseM      until we all dig in!  :P
19:53 * magnuse   upgrades customers to 3.18.3
19:54 tcohen      magnuse: yay!
19:55 * magnuse   will blame tcohen if things go belly up
19:55 magnuse     ;-)
19:57 mtj         lol
19:57 cait        magnuse: tell me how it went, we will soon too :)
19:57 magnuse     will do!
19:58 * magnuse   looks forward to meeting lots of cool people in marseille
20:00 pastebot    "magnuse" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "errors related to old themes, from running apt-get upgrade" (7 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/379
20:00 magnuse     not sure if that ^ is to be expected
20:03 magnuse     i get that for each language installed
20:06 cait        HM
20:07 cait        haven't seen those
20:07 cait        hm at least I think we didn't
20:08 wizzyrea    yeah I think the translation fixes got lost along the way, eythian thought they were fixed when I saw them too.
20:12 * magnuse   is not too worried

20:45 David_H     Greetings!  Working through the upgrade of Koha on our Ubuntu server from 3.18.02 to 3.18.03.  The instructions seemed pretty simple: just run "sudo apt-get install koha-common".  Is there another step to the process?  Do we need to stop/restart the MySQl database?  Should we have stopped it first?
20:46 magnuse     David_H: nope, ""sudo apt-get install koha-common" should be all you need
20:46 magnuse     or "sudo apt-get upgrade"
20:46 magnuse     but that will of course upgrade other stuff too
20:46 magnuse     it really is that simple :-)
20:47 David_H     excellent.  I just recall us having significant issues on the last upgrade and I thought there was more to it
20:47 wizzyrea    it's really that simple.
20:48 David_H     thanks!
20:48 wizzyrea    you might need to do an apt-get update to let apt know there's a new version
20:48 wizzyrea    but other than that.
20:49 gmcharlt    David_H: if you have a cat handy, you could always use it to randomize the keyboard input
20:49 gmcharlt    that is, if you want the upgrade to be slightly more difficulty ;)
20:50 magnuse     ooh, that is some good advice
20:51 magnuse     maybe rangi should add it to the notes for 3.18.4?
20:52 nengard     Hi David_H
20:52 nengard     excited to see you here :)
20:54 magnuse     disney?
20:57 * cait      waves
21:03 * magnuse   wanders off
21:06 David_H     Sorry, yes...stepped away.  Quick [additional] question - how do we backup our database prior to doing future upgrades (just in case)?
21:07 David_H     Interesting: when we launch Koha it still shows the version as 3.18.02
21:10 David_H     Hey Nicole, come visit!
21:12 cait        David_H: hm it should show the new version
21:12 cait        maybe the update didn't happen yet?
21:12 David_H     We thought so to.  Checked the Koha Admin About and it still had the old one
21:37 eythian     hi
21:37 wahanui     hola, eythian
21:49 wizzyrea    did it maybe hold back your package and not install it?
22:08 dcook       hehe
22:08 dcook       magnuse and gmcharlt are sadistic
22:09 dcook       <gmcharlt> David_H: if you have a cat handy, you could always use it to randomize the keyboard input
22:09 gmcharlt    dcook: I like to view it as sharing...
22:09 gmcharlt    (... the pain)
22:09 dcook       hehe
22:09 dcook       Caring is sharing :)
22:09 dcook       Good to see you around, gmcharlt ^_^
22:36 dcook       Got to love the moment when someone updates a function to a better style... but before your patch is pushed : p
22:38 eythian     that's always annoying
22:40 dcook       And now I'm also a bit confused about how to proceed...
22:40 dcook       Pass the argument just in the hashref according to the new style
22:40 dcook       Or also add a parameter to the list in the old style...
22:40 * dcook     is tempted just to use the hashref
22:40 eythian     why is the old style still an option?
22:41 dcook       That's a good question
22:41 dcook       I suspect someone didn't want to bother refactoring the old code
22:41 dcook       I've seen it in patches before, but I think this is the first time in a pushed patch..
22:42 pianohacker massive map nerdery: http://www.jasondavies.com/maps/transition/
22:44 dcook       That's pretty neat, pianohacker
22:44 dcook       I always enjoyed a good Mercator
22:44 dcook       Mostly because it looked nicest hung up on my wall
22:44 dcook       ... and it was the only map I had :p
22:45 dcook       You know you're from the country when you spend your spare time staring at maps instead of... well... doing anything else
22:46 pianohacker dcook: check out guyou :)
22:48 eythian     need a mercator centred around the south pole really
22:48 dcook       wth...
22:49 dcook       So the old style doesn't include the latest change to the parameters available to the function either...
22:49 mtj         http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/3711652

22:51 mtj         im curious about the reasoning for various layouts
22:52 mtj         i cant see the point in some
22:53 pianohacker as far as I can tell, the answer to that for some of these is "because a mathemetician got bored". XKCD got me into http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peirce_quincuncial_projection , for instance. I _finally_ coded up an implementation a couple weeks ago, there's some difficult numerical code I had to steal/port :P
22:53 tcohen      dcook: changing the API of a function can lead to lot of work on the rest of the code
22:54 tcohen      not everyone has the time, when they are fixing something
22:56 mtj         pianohacker:  aah yes... 'bored math nerds' explains it well :)
22:58 dcook       tcohen: Yeah, I know. It's pretty new code anyway though :p
22:58 dcook       tcohen: I'll follow the precedent and just make my change to the hashref style. Sound good?
23:05 tcohen      new style :-D
23:05 schnydszch  mtj I'm using ssd servers in prod and testing. Because that's what is stated by my service providers
23:06 schnydszch  Anybody from biblibre here? Coz I have a question :)
23:08 pianohacker tcohen: I'm working on a patch series for 13630

23:09 tcohen      pianohacker: awesome
23:18 dcook       tcohen: Any tips for catching errors in unit tests?
23:18 tcohen      use Test::Warn
23:19 dcook       Hmm
23:19 dcook       I'm not sure that's quite what I want
23:19 dcook       Rather, I want to make sure warning X isn't happening
23:20 dcook       I'm thinking of using Test::More's pass() and fail()
23:20 dcook       Depending on the result of the eval/$@
23:20 dcook       Hmm, that doesn't seem recommended though
23:22 pianohacker dcook: really? I'm not much of a perl expert, but I thought that was the best we had for catching exceptions (outside of CPAN)
23:22 dcook       The pass()/fail() I mean, pianohacker
23:23 pianohacker ah, kk
23:23 dcook       Maybe I'm just trying to test too much?
23:24 tcohen      dcook: can u elaborate on the use case?
23:24 dcook       Well, I'm adding that $parameters hashref to XSLT_Handler
23:25 dcook       But XML::LibXSLT only takes a hash
23:25 dcook       So if I try to dereference something that isn't a hashref, it'll warn
23:25 dcook       I suppose the thing to do is make sure that I have a hashref before trying to dereference
23:26 pianohacker yeah, seems easiest
23:28 dcook       Mmm, I think I've got it.
23:31 dcook       I'll still add a test just to show that you don't have to add parameters..
23:32 dcook       Or that empty parameters don't break it..
23:37 dcook       Cool. tcohen you should have an updated patch in a moment :)
23:37 dcook       tcohen: Does it need to go through sign off and QA once again?
23:59 dcook       hehe
23:59 dcook       "We could even add support for
23:59 dcook       'format=usmarc' if you want to use that as your formatting method. I'm sure
23:59 dcook       someone somewhere likes that idea.
